A legitimate med spa operates under a licensed medical director who is responsible for treatment protocols — regulations on who qualifies vary by state, which affects the range of procedures a facility can legally offer. Treatment categories span injectables (Botox, fillers), energy devices (lasers, RF, ultrasound), and body contouring — each with different downtime profiles and repeat-visit cadences. Browse clinics by city, read real patient reviews, and contact them directly.
Finding a reputable med spa shouldn’t require a Reddit thread and three consultations just to feel safe.
Elective care is a multi-visit decision. Use this shape to check the practice’s process at the consult — not after the deposit clears.
An initial consult should be a conversation — not a sales pitch. Bring a written list of goals, current medications, and any prior procedures. Ask who is on the room, who runs the practice, and what happens if you decide not to proceed.
Evaluation is where candidacy is determined — physical assessment, contraindications, expectations, photographs where applicable. A reputable med spas and aesthetic clinics provider will tell you when you are not a candidate, even if the practice loses the booking.
Treatment plans should be itemized in writing — what's included, what's optional, what's out of scope, what aftercare costs are separate. A protocol that "varies based on need" without ranges should prompt a follow-up question.
Follow-up cadence belongs in the plan, not in the post-visit phone tag. Ask who handles complications, what after-hours coverage looks like, and how revisions or touch-ups are billed if outcomes don't match the plan.
Start with your city and whatever’s on your mind — skin texture, injectables, body contouring, or something you’re not sure how to name yet. There’s no wrong answer.

A short, ranked list of med spas and aesthetic clinics in your city, ordered by Google rating and review depth. No clinics from three counties over.

Read each profile before you decide anything. Services offered, real patient reviews, years in practice, and — where a clinic discloses it — pricing range. Knowledge first.

Contact the clinic you choose on your own terms. No intermediary, no call-center, no one else in the room. Most offer a complimentary first consultation.

The path thoughtful people take anyway. We just make it shorter.

“The clinic that leads with a discount before you’ve even had a consultation is the one to think twice about.”
A plain-English guide to choosing a med spa or aesthetic clinic — what questions to ask, what credentials to look for, and what separates a good first consult from a sales call.
Fonteum does not verify provider credentials or supervision relationships. The questions below name the external authority you can use to confirm each answer at the source.
Names + credentials of the person actually treating you — not the practice's marketing voice. Confirm the medical license at the state medical board's lookup tool. Confirm board certification at ABMS or the relevant specialty board.
Many elective treatments are delegated to nurses or aestheticians under a physician's protocol. Ask the practice to name the supervising physician on record and confirm that physician is in-state and available during procedures.
Reputable practices have written protocols for managing complications — emergency contact, partner hospital relationship, after-hours coverage. Ask before the procedure, not after.
Aftercare windows, included visits, costs of touch-ups, what triggers a revision conversation. A practice that resists writing this down before payment is a flag worth heeding.
MedSpaVerify is a directory and research surface for med spa discovery. Listings are compiled from public business profile data and owner-submitted updates. Unless a source is shown on a profile, Fonteum has not independently confirmed licensure, supervising physician details, treatment safety, or clinical outcomes.
As public-source provenance is wired to additional fields, source names and last-checked dates will appear on individual profiles. Until that source row exists, a clinic’s presence in this directory does not imply confirmation of state licensure or supervising-physician oversight.
Aesthetic medicine is regulated at the state level and requires physician or nurse-practitioner oversight for injectable treatments. Requirements vary by state. MedSpaVerify does not independently verify each clinic’s licensure today — we surface each clinic’s public Google Business profile and website so you can confirm licensing and medical oversight directly with the clinic and your state’s medical or cosmetology board before booking. See the “What MedSpaVerify checks (and does not check)” section above for the full list.
Listings are pulled from public Google Business profiles for med spas and aesthetic clinics in each city. Results are ordered primarily by real Google rating and review volume. We do not accept paid submissions or pay-to-rank — clinics appear because they’re active in that market, not because they paid.
Completely free for anyone browsing. We don’t charge users to search, don’t run pop-ups, and don’t sell your information to anyone. You reach out to the clinic directly if and when you choose to.
The ratings shown are real Google ratings, not a proprietary score we invented. A 4.9★ means that clinic has a 4.9★ average on Google across their actual patient reviews. We don’t inflate or modify them.
Coverage expands on a rolling basis. If your city isn’t listed yet, check the cities page for nearby metros — coverage boundaries often extend further than city limits suggest.
We add and re-check listings on a rolling basis as we expand into new markets and refresh Google rating and review-volume data. There’s no fixed update schedule we can promise — but if a listing looks outdated, flag it and we’ll re-check it. We do not refresh state-licensure data today; that requires a state-board source we have not yet wired.
Coverage varies by clinic, but typical offerings include neurotoxins (Botox, Dysport), dermal fillers, chemical peels, laser resurfacing, microneedling, body contouring, and IV wellness. Each profile lists what that specific clinic offers.
The right clinic is a considered choice.
Find one in your cityNo two patients respond identically. Lighting, anatomy, healing biology, and protocol adherence all change the outcome. A practice promising a specific result is selling a guarantee that elective care cannot honestly make.
Patient-selected gallery photos are marketing — not clinical evidence. Lighting, posture, and post-procedure photography are routinely staged. Treat galleries as the practice's best case, not the median case.
When Fonteum publishes a source-cited field on a profile, the chip names the authority and the last-checked date. Fields without a chip mean we have no public-record match — never that we have performed our own credential check on the practice.
Care fit, patient choice, and safety oversight without the sales pressure.
Profiles show what each provider actually treats and the consultation format on offer. You see who's the right fit before you book.
Every contact reaches only the provider you picked. No shared lead pools, no upsell calls from third parties.
Where a public board licensure record exists, we link to it. Listings describe scope of practice, never promise an outcome.
