What can a med spa advertise in Delaware?
Marketing · part of The Practice Perimeter
Delaware’s cited advertising rules are written as grounds of discipline. Advertising the practice of medicine, or another profession regulated under the chapter, in an unethical or unprofessional manner is unprofessional conduct — as is any false, fraudulent, deceitful, dishonest or unethical practice in connection with the practice of medicine, and the solicitation or acceptance of a fee by FRAUDULENT representation that a manifestly incurable condition, as determined with reasonable medical certainty, can be permanently cured. On the aesthetics side the prohibition is on holding out: a person may not use any title or description conveying or tending to convey the impression that they are qualified to practice aesthetics unless licensed. These claims survey 24 Del. C. §§1731 and 5125.
