What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dermani Medspa's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees have specific responsibilities regarding the medical personnel associated with the Professional Corporation (PC). The franchisee must sign and maintain a Management Agreement with a PC, unless a waiver is signed by both the franchisee and Dermani Medspa. It is the franchisee's or their Operating Principal's responsibility to ensure that all medical personnel of the PC are duly licensed and board certified as required by their respective states, and that they possess the necessary experience and skills to perform the medical services offered. The franchisee must use Dermani Medspa's standard Management Agreement form, but can negotiate monetary terms and, with written consent from Dermani Medspa, certain other terms of the relationship with the PC. The final Management Agreement requires written approval from Dermani Medspa before it is signed with the PC.
The PC, not the franchisee directly, will employ and control the Affiliated Physicians who provide the medical services at the Dermani Medspa location. The franchisee is responsible for ensuring that the PC offers all medical services in accordance with the Management Agreement and the Dermani Medspa system. Furthermore, the franchisee must ensure that the PC does not offer any services or products that have not been authorized by Dermani Medspa.
In addition to ensuring proper qualifications, the franchisee must keep Dermani Medspa informed of the identity of the dermani MEDSPA®'s physicians or other individuals providing medical services. The franchisee must also ensure that the Dermani Medspa is staffed with adequate medical personnel to efficiently and effectively meet client needs. These stipulations ensure that the medical services provided meet the brand's standards and comply with all applicable regulations.
