1. Demand for medspa services is growing
The popularity of medspas has surged, and customers are visiting more regularly than ever. In fact, data shows that 83% of medspa clients now consider themselves “regulars.” Of those regulars, 68% visit for monthly treatments, with 35% returning more than once a month. These findings indicate that medspa visits are a lifestyle choice, not a passing trend.
This growth presents a golden opportunity for medspa businesses to increase loyalty and revenue. Here’s some compelling data: 81% of customers have a high level of trust in their service providers, and 94% will sometimes or always buy recommended products during their visits. Capitalizing on this trust through upselling, cross-selling, and personalized recommendations could yield significant returns.
Leverage tools like automated upsell features or smart booking systems to offer tailored recommendations based on customer history. Even small personal touches like suggesting a new product or an add-on service during checkout can build deeper relationships, and bigger sales.
2. Personalization is non-negotiable
If there’s one takeaway every medspa owner should note, it’s this: Customers crave personalization at every step of their experience.
Did you know that 97% of your clients are more likely to rebook when they receive tailored offers and messages? It doesn’t stop there. Almost all medspa regulars (99%) feel that personalization during in-person visits is important, and 98% value personalization while booking online.

Adding small touches of personalization can revolutionize guest satisfaction. For instance, what if your team remembered a client’s favorite skincare product or sent a birthday gift card? Even automated follow-ups to reconnect with clients who haven’t visited in months can feel surprisingly personal when executed correctly.
With medspas growing and adding clients, manual personalization is becoming a thing of the past. Artificial intelligence is already helping transform the way medspas operate and offer personalization – and if you weren’t sure how your customers feel about AI, now you can find out.
90% of regular customers think medspas should use AI to offer personalized recommendations, and three in four actively want medspas to use AI to offer a more personalized experience.
3. Online reviews can make or break your business
Nine out of 10 medspa guests check online reviews before booking their appointments. However, it’s not enough to have a body of reviews — it’s crucial to shoot for great ones. The survey found that 92% of potential clients won’t consider a medspa with a rating below 4 out of 5 stars, and 62% will only book at places with a 4.5 rating or higher. Quite simply, a strong online reputation is your ticket to attracting (and retaining) customers.
But here’s an even more telling stat: 68% of medspa regulars are willing to pay more for services at a medspa with outstanding reviews. That’s proof that customers value great reputations, and they’re willing to invest in treatments at five-star businesses.

The good news? Managing reviews is easier than you think with all-in-one online reputation management platforms doing the hard work. Medspa owners who actively respond to feedback, engage with their audience online, and maintain stellar ratings consistently stand out in a crowded industry.
4. Digital convenience is the new standard
Consumers today expect convenience, and medspa clients are no exception. The ease of online booking now plays a crucial role in the decision-making process, with more than half of customers (55%) already booking visits through medspa websites or apps. Online booking has officially become the most preferred appointment method, with 36% of clients choosing it over phone calls or in-person reservations.
But convenience doesn’t stop there. Nearly all medspa clients (98%) want text reminders for appointments, and 97% expressed interest in managing bookings through their mobile phones. Offering seamless, mobile-friendly systems is no longer a nice-to-have — it’s expected.
Additionally, customers value options like mobile-friendly payments, streamlined check-ins, and efficient checkout processes. These touchpoints add up to create a more positive overall experience and inspire loyalty.
Maximize growth with data-driven insights
