Introduced Text

Regulates the operation of medical spas in Massachusetts, including licensing requirements and penalties for unlicensed operation.

The bill regulates the operation of medical spas in Massachusetts by defining terms such as "medical spa," "clinical director," and "site director." It mandates that medical spas obtain licenses from the Department of Public Health and outlines the qualifications for medical directors and site directors based on the level of procedures offered. The bill also establishes penalties for operating an unlicensed medical spa and requires medical spas to maintain patient records for seven years. It further creates a medical spa advisory committee to advise the commissioner on regulation matters.
