How the account works for a supervised medspa
A medspa operating under physician supervision does not register separately in NPPES, so Precision Biologics ties the account to the supervising physician's NPI number. That physician can then authorize specific medspa staff to place or receive orders under the same account.
Choosing between cryopreserved and shelf-stable formats
Cryopreserved Wharton's jelly formats require -80 degree C storage and ship overnight on dry ice in validated containers, which calls for an ultra-low freezer on site. Lyophilized Wharton's jelly and exosome formats are described by the supplier as shelf-stable and avoid that requirement, which may suit smaller aesthetic practices without existing cryogenic storage.
- Cryopreserved: -80C storage, overnight dry-ice shipping
- Lyophilized: shelf-stable, no cryogenic storage required
Documentation and ingredient disclosure
Dermatology and aesthetic practices evaluating an exosome product can request the full ingredient disclosure and available characterization data for that lot, alongside the standard certificate of analysis and donor eligibility summary provided for Wharton's jelly products.
Regulatory review belongs to the supervising physician
FDA has stated there are no FDA-approved exosome products, and these articles are generally regulated as biologic drugs; Wharton's jelly products are distributed under the supplier's HCT/P framework, and whether a specific use fits that framework is a determination for the supervising physician and counsel. Huntsville-area practices should confirm licensure and supervision requirements with the Alabama Board of Medical Examiners before adding a new product line. These products are not FDA approved or licensed for any disease or condition; this information is for licensed healthcare professionals and is not medical or legal advice.
FDA has stated there are no FDA-approved exosome products. Exosome products are generally regulated as biologic drugs under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act, not as 361 HCT/Ps. Purchase and clinical use decisions belong to the physician with their own regulatory counsel.
