What can a med spa advertise in Oklahoma?
Marketing · part of The Practice Perimeter
The Medical Practice Act reaches a med spa’s marketing in two places, and one of them is jurisdictional rather than disciplinary. Advertising, holding out to the public, or representing in any manner that one is authorized to practice medicine and surgery in this state IS ITSELF within the statutory definition of the practice of medicine — so the advertisement can be the practice. Separately, all advertising of medical business in which statements are grossly untrue or improbable and calculated to mislead the public is unprofessional conduct. ⛔ That second ground appears identically in BOTH 2019 versions of § 509 the compilation carries, so it does not depend on which version controls. Beyond that Act, the Attorney General or a district attorney may sue to enjoin an act or practice that violates the Consumer Protection Act.
