What are the license fees to open a med spa in Connecticut?
Facility · part of The Practice Perimeter
Short answer
The cited rules do not settle this — they set no med spa facility license or fee; the only fees given are the $100 initial esthetician license application and $100 for the hairdresser and cosmetician exam or renewal.
On and after July 1, 2020, except as provided in subsection (g) of this section, no person may practice as an esthetician without obtaining a license or temporary permit from the Department of Public Health under this section or section 20-265f. On and after January 1, 2020, each person seeking an initial license as an esthetician shall apply to the department on a form prescribed by the department, accompanied by an application fee of one hundred dollars.

Connecticut requires registration before an out-of-state pharmacy can send prescription drugs or devices into the state: “No nonresident pharmacy shall engage in the business of shipping, mailing or delivering legend devices or legend drugs in this state unless such nonresident pharmacy has been issued a certificate of registration by the commission”. The statute defines a “nonresident pharmacy” as any pharmacy located outside this state that ships, mails or delivers legend devices or legend drugs into Connecticut pursuant to a prescription order. The registration fee and renewal fee are set in section 20-601.
