Starting your own aesthetic practice comes with responsibilities.
Medical oversight and professional insurance are part of working safely, legally, and confidently.
If you need medical oversight, you can submit a request to be connected with a supervising medical director through MD50. Once connected, any agreement or ongoing arrangement is managed directly between the provider and the medical director.
Malpractice insurance is required before you begin seeing clients.
What you’ll need depends on:
✓ State regulations
✓ The treatments you provide
Each location has specific insurance requirements, which will be shared during onboarding.

Treatment guidelines and safety standards
Compliance with local regulations
Documentation processes
