What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dermani Medspa's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Franchised Business must provide all management services that Dermani Medspa specifies to support the PC's (professional corporation) medical practice. These services support the PC's delivery of medical spa and cosmetic services and related products to clients at the Dermani Medspa, consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. The franchisee must also ensure that the PC provides the services and products that Dermani Medspa specifies at the medspa. Franchisees must offer and sell approved services and products only in the manner Dermani Medspa has approved. Franchisees must not offer for sale or sell any services or products that Dermani Medspa has not approved. The franchisee must ensure that the PC operating the Dermani Medspa offers and sells only those services and products that Dermani Medspa has approved, and that the PC operating the Dermani Medspa discontinues selling and offering for sale any services or products that Dermani Medspa disapproves. Franchisees will discontinue selling and offering for sale any services or products that Dermani Medspa decides in its sole discretion to disapprove in writing.
The Dermani Medspa franchised business will provide the PC with management and administrative services and support consistent with the Dermani Medspa system to support the PC's practice and its delivery of medical spa services and related products to clients at the Dermani Medspa, consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. These services include billing and collections, business planning, accounts payable management, bookkeeping and financial management, client records maintenance, management of administrative staff, arranging for the PC to obtain and maintain professional liability insurance, marketing and promotional activities, and arranging legal services and credentialing support.
This arrangement is typical in the medical spa industry due to regulatory requirements regarding the corporate practice of medicine. The franchisee's role is primarily administrative and managerial, while the PC, staffed with licensed medical professionals, handles the actual medical services. This division of responsibilities is crucial for compliance with healthcare laws and regulations. Prospective franchisees should consult with a healthcare attorney to ensure full understanding of these requirements in their specific state.
