Michigan Med Spa medical director requirements

Under the Michigan Public Health Code (MCL 333.16215), physicians may delegate certain medical acts and procedures to qualified licensed or unlicensed personnel, provided they maintain appropriate supervision and adhere to prevailing standards of practice. While Michigan does not enforce a standalone statutory mandate specifically requiring every medical spa to employ a designated 'medical director,' any cosmetic procedures constituting the practice of medicine must be performed by or under the direct supervision and delegation of a licensed physician. Because regulations can vary based on the specific aesthetic treatment and professional scope of practice, consumers and practitioners should verify compliance directly with the Michigan Board of Medicine or LARA.
