Bill Summary
An act relating to medical spa facilities; creating s. 456.601, F.S.; defining the term "medspa"; requiring each medspa to prominently post on its website and in a conspicuous location in its facility specified information about the physician supervising the medspa; providing an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill creates a new definition and regulatory requirements for medical spa facilities (medspas) in Florida. A medspa is defined as a medical spa facility offering a combination of cosmetic and medical services under the supervision of a licensed physician from either chapter 458 (allopathic physicians) or chapter 459 (osteopathic physicians). These facilities can provide services like laser hair removal, medical-grade skin therapies, chemical peels, and cosmetic injections, but the definition explicitly excludes traditional physician offices where similar services are provided. The bill mandates that each medspa must prominently display on its website and within its facility the supervising physician's name, license number, specialty certifications, and the names and locations of any additional medspas supervised by the same physician. This legislation aims to increase transparency and provide consumers with clear information about the medical professionals overseeing these cosmetic and medical service facilities. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
