Medical Spa Laws in Massachusetts

Massachusetts is one of the strictest states for medspa regulation, restricting injection services to MDs and DOs only. RNs, NPs, and PAs cannot inject neurotoxins or fillers, and non-physicians cannot own a medspa. The state enforces strict Corporate Practice of Medicine rules and requires in-person good-faith exams. This limits business model flexibility but creates a clear, physician-centric regulatory framework.
