What must a med spa in Minnesota report to the board?
Facility · part of The Practice Perimeter
Short answer
Not the facility — reporting runs to the individual licensee: a physician must report charges brought against their license in another state or jurisdiction, and a practitioner dispensing oral legend drugs for profit must file a statement with the board first.
Minnesota also writes it as a ground rather than as a duty, and it reaches charges, not only outcomes: a “failure to report to the board that charges regarding the person’s license have been brought in another state or jurisdiction” is itself grounds for disciplinary action, alongside discipline actually imposed elsewhere and a refusal of licensure by another state.

⚠️ there is no med spa registration and no medical director requirement. Chapter 147 was surveyed in full for this entry: it contains no occurrence of “medical director” and no facility license, registration, permit or fee of any kind for a cosmetic practice. Minnesota regulates the PERSON performing the act, never the premises — so there is no register a Minnesota consumer can check, and no filing a Minnesota operator must make.

⚠️ selling a compounded or any other legend drug at a mark-up can require a filing almost nobody makes — BUT ONLY FOR ORAL DRUGS. A practitioner who “dispenses for profit a legend drug that is to be administered orally, is ordinarily dispensed by a pharmacist, and is not a vaccine” MUST FILE a statement with their licensing board, and “it is unlawful to dispense legend drugs for profit … unless the statement has been filed.” “Profit” is any amount above acquisition cost, plus the cost of making it available where the drug was compounded. ⚠️ INJECTABLE semaglutide falls OUTSIDE this filing duty; an ORAL compounded GLP-1 does not.
