Thinking about opening a med spa in Texas? 🩺✨ The business potential is massive, but the legal landscape is incredibly strict. In Texas, a med spa is legally considered a medical practice, which means traditional business structures won’t cut it.
If you are researching how to open a med spa Texas entrepreneurs and practitioners need to know these 3 non-negotiables:
1️⃣ The Corporate Practice of Medicine (CPOM): Under Texas med spa laws, non-physicians cannot own a medical practice. If you are an entrepreneur or an aesthetic nurse, you cannot legally own 100% of a business that provides medical treatments like Botox or lasers.
2️⃣ The MSO Structure: To open legally, you must use a Management Services Organization (MSO) model. A physician owns the medical side, while your MSO handles the non-clinical business operations like marketing, billing, and leasing.
3️⃣ Mandatory Good Faith Exams: Before a patient receives any medical treatment, a physician, Nurse Practitioner, or Physician Assistant must perform an initial face-to-face evaluation. No treatments can happen without this proper medical delegation.
Getting your aesthetic practice legal requirements right from day one protects your investment and your license.
