Physician-supervision requirements shape vendor review
Because biologics-adjacent services at a medspa fall under physician supervision, the supervising physician or medical director typically owns supplier vetting, not estheticians or front-desk staff. Confirm who at the practice holds that review responsibility before starting an account application.
Opening an NPI-verified account
Account setup requires a valid NPI, verified against NPPES before the first order ships. Pricing is reserved for verified accounts only. Peer-to-peer calls are available to walk a medical director through lot documentation.
Receiving shipments at a medspa or outpatient aesthetic practice
Many aesthetic practices operate from leased suites without lab-grade storage. Cryopreserved Wharton's jelly products need an on-site -80C freezer and a plan for immediate transfer from an overnight dry-ice shipment, while the lyophilized exosome products, Bio EX and Bio AER, and the lyophilized Wharton's jelly format, Bio DPM, store at normal room conditions, which several practices find easier to manage across multiple treatment rooms.
Documentation and state verification
Confirm the supervising physician's license status with the Florida Board of Medicine or Board of Osteopathic Medicine directly, and route any question about whether a specific use is permitted to your own counsel. Florida's SB 1768, effective July 1, 2025, gives MD/DOs limited authority to use certain non-FDA-approved stem cell therapies in orthopedics, wound care, and pain management; it does not extend to aesthetic use and does not change federal documentation requirements, so the same certificate of analysis, donor eligibility summary, and lot release record apply regardless.
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.
These products are not FDA approved or licensed for any disease or condition. Information is for licensed healthcare professionals and is not medical or legal advice.
Frequently asked questions
Does our medical director need to be the one who sets up the account?+
Account verification requires an NPI tied to a licensed professional. Practices commonly have the supervising physician or medical director hold the account.
What's the difference in storage needs between your Wharton's jelly and exosome products?+
Cryopreserved Wharton's jelly products need -80C storage and overnight dry-ice receiving. The lyophilized exosome and DPM formats are shelf-stable at normal room temperature per the product insert.
Does Florida SB 1768 apply to aesthetic practices?+
SB 1768 addresses physician use of certain non-FDA-approved stem cell therapies in orthopedics, wound care, and pain management specifically. It is not a basis for aesthetic use, and supplier documentation requirements stay the same regardless.
