Vendor qualification under physician supervision
Medspas operate under a supervising or medical director physician, and that structure carries into how a biologics account is opened: the NPI on file belongs to the supervising physician, not the medspa as a business entity.
Aesthetic and dermatology practices evaluating a new distributor typically request the same baseline documentation as any other licensed buyer: a certificate of analysis, a donor eligibility summary, and confirmation of third-party sterility testing for the specific lot being ordered.
What ships and how
Cryopreserved Wharton's jelly formats ship overnight on dry ice in validated containers and are stored at -80 degrees Celsius. Lyophilized formats, including the freeze-dried Wharton's jelly product and the lyophilized exosome products, are shelf-stable and do not require ultra-low freezer storage, which some medspa locations do not have on site.
- Cryopreserved: overnight dry-ice shipment, -80 C storage
- Lyophilized: shelf-stable, no cryogenic storage required
Documentation and traceability
Each lot carries a unique identifier, and use of a given lot is tracked at the patient record level on the clinic side. Precision Biologics makes certificates of analysis, donor eligibility summaries, and lot release records available to verified accounts so traceability can be maintained from receipt through use.
Confirming regulatory posture before you offer a new product
No product distributed by Precision Biologics is FDA approved, and exosome products are not distributed as 361 HCT/Ps; whether a given intended use is appropriate under a medspa's existing regulatory framework is a determination for the supervising physician and legal counsel, not Precision Biologics.
We recommend confirming your position with the Virginia Board of Medicine and your own counsel, and Precision Biologics supports that review with documentation and physician-level calls about records rather than clinical guidance.
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 the NPI requirement apply if our medspa is owned by a non-physician?+
The account is tied to the NPI of the supervising or medical director physician, regardless of the business ownership structure.
Can our dermatology practice order a shelf-stable product if we don't have ultra-low freezer storage?+
Yes. The lyophilized Wharton's jelly and exosome formats are shelf-stable and do not require cryogenic storage; cryopreserved formats do.
What documentation should we keep on file for each lot we receive?+
Request and retain the certificate of analysis, donor eligibility summary, and lot release record for every lot, and track use of that lot at the patient record level.
