Leverage Virtual Consultations to Grow Your Clinic

Today’s aesthetic patients want ease, speed, and flexibility - and that starts long before they step into your clinic. Virtual consultations are no longer a convenience - they’re a conversion tool. The practices that implement them strategically are seeing higher engagement, stronger booking rates, and more efficient lead handling.

Here’s how virtual consults give your practice a competitive edge:

Lower the barrier to entry

Some patients need time, privacy, and low-pressure interactions before making a commitment. Virtual consults remove the intimidation of in-person visits and help hesitant leads take the first step - especially when paired with the AI Simulator.

Increase your total number of consultations

No travel time, flexible hours, and a shorter format means your team can take more consults per week. This is especially valuable during slower seasons or when your physical schedule is packed.

Build trust and connection
A virtual consultation is still a personal experience. When done right, it creates connection, answers questions in real-time, and builds rapport that leads to bookings - especially when the patient has already used the AI Simulator to preview their results.

Collect a down payment during the session

Don’t leave momentum on the table. Set clear expectations and offer an easy way to collect a consultation fee or deposit during the virtual call. This not only confirms their interest - it locks them into the next step.

Expand your reach beyond your local zip code
Virtual consultations allow you to engage with leads outside your immediate area - whether they’re moving, traveling, or simply browsing from afar. It’s a great way to grow your patient base without physical expansion.

How EntityMed makes virtual consultations even more effective

EntityMed’s AI Simulator isn’t just a lead magnet - it’s the perfect first step in a virtual consultation journey. By the time a potential patient requests a consult, they’ve already engaged with your clinic in a meaningful way: they’ve visualized their desired results, built emotional connection to their transformation, and voluntarily submitted their contact information.

This isn’t cold outreach - this is a warm, high-intent lead who’s ready to talk. And that changes everything.

Here’s what the full EntityMed + virtual consult experience looks like:

1. The patient simulates their desired look
   Using just a selfie, the lead previews results of treatments like fillers, toxins, or contouring—at home, at night, or while scrolling on their lunch break.
   
   
2. Interest is captured instantly
   Once they see their post-treatment simulation, they’re prompted to leave their details. You now have a motivated lead who’s already visualized their future self.
   
   
3. You offer a virtual consultation
   Rather than asking them to schedule an in-person visit, which can create friction, you invite them to a virtual consultation - making it easier for them to say yes.
   
   
4. You build trust and convert
   During the virtual consult, you review their simulation results, recommend personalized treatment options, and answer any questions. It’s intimate, convenient, and effective.
   
   
5. You secure a down payment on the spot
   With the patient already emotionally invested and clear on next steps, this is the ideal time to collect a booking fee or deposit. EntityMed encourages clinics to never leave a virtual consult without a financial commitment - this locks in interest and improves your show-up rates dramatically.
   
   
6. Follow-up and confirmation made easy
   With full lead data, consultation notes, and payment secured, your front desk team doesn’t need to chase or reschedule. You’ve already done the heavy lifting - with less time, fewer staff resources, and far greater efficiency.

By pairing AI-powered simulations with a modern virtual consultation flow, EntityMed helps your practice attract, nurture, and convert more leads - without adding pressure on your staff or increasing overhead.

This is the future of patient engagement: personalized, visual, convenient, and results-driven - don't hesitate to reach out.
