Medical oversight overview
In Colorado, medical-aesthetic services performed in settings like medspas are governed by state medical board delegation and supervision regulations. Licensed physicians and advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) who delegate medical services to unlicensed personnel must adhere to Colorado Medical Board Rule 800 (3 CCR 713-30), which requires personal and responsible direction, training validation, and appropriate clinical protocols. Additionally, legislation such as House Bill 25-1024 mandates specific patient disclosures regarding delegation and supervision. Because requirements depend heavily on the specific procedure and practitioner scope, prospective patients and providers should verify compliance directly with the Colorado Medical Board.
