What is the franchisee's and PC's responsibility regarding training and licensing of individuals performing medical services at a Dermani Medspa?

According to the 2025 Dermani Medspa FDD, Dermani Medspa does not provide training to the PC (presumably, Professional Corporation) or Affiliated Physicians, including estheticians or laser practitioners, regarding the specific skills they need to perform medical services. It is the franchisee's and the PC's full responsibility to ensure that all individuals performing medical services are properly trained and possess all required licenses and certifications. However, Dermani Medspa reserves the right to require individuals providing certain services, including estheticians, to attend and successfully complete training offered by an approved or designated third-party vendor.

This means that as a Dermani Medspa franchisee, you cannot rely on the franchisor to train medical staff. You and your PC must ensure that anyone providing medical services, such as estheticians and laser practitioners, have the necessary training, licenses, and certifications to legally and safely perform their duties. This includes verifying credentials and potentially arranging for additional training through approved third-party vendors if required by Dermani Medspa.

The franchisee bears the responsibility of ensuring their staff is adequately trained and licensed. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in legal issues, put patients at risk, and potentially lead to penalties or termination of the franchise agreement. Therefore, prospective franchisees should carefully consider the costs and complexities associated with recruiting, training, and maintaining a qualified medical staff.
