Medical oversight overview

Specific state rule identified

Under Utah law, facilities performing cosmetic medical procedures that hold themselves out as a "medical spa" must have a licensed physician or advanced practice registered nurse on the premises during procedures. Utah statutory provisions mandate that cosmetic medical procedures are performed within a regulated facility under specific supervision and delegation frameworks. Depending on the specific procedure type, supervising practitioners must develop treatment plans, establish delegation groups, and ensure appropriate direct or general supervision standards are maintained. Patients should verify facility licensing and practitioner credentials directly with state regulatory boards.
