A Medspa Franchise Built Only for Physicians
Healthy Solutions Medspa offers its franchise only to licensed physicians, because the entire model was built around a doctor who is present, involved and accountable for every patient. Each location is physician owned and physician led, with the owner seeing patients, reviewing charts and training the team to a medical standard. For physicians searching for a different way to practice, the Healthy Solutions Medspa franchise offers ownership of a membership based practice in medical weight loss, hormone therapy, peptides and aesthetics, supported by more than 17 years of proven systems from two locations in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Why the Medspa Industry Needs More Physician Owners
The medical spa industry is growing quickly. According to the American Med Spa Association, there were 10,488 medspas in the United States in 2023, an increase of 18% in a single year. The same report found that 67% of single owner medspas are owned by non-physicians.
Many medspas bring on a medical director only to satisfy state requirements. In some cases, that physician rarely sees a patient or reviews a chart. A physician’s name on a compliance document is not the same as a physician engaged in patient care.
The treatments patients seek at a medspa are medical treatments with real risks:
- Injectables such as Botox and dermal fillers require a deep understanding of facial anatomy and the ability to recognize and manage complications such as vascular occlusion.
- Lasers and energy devices require proper patient selection and settings to prevent burns and pigment changes.
- Prescription weight loss medications require a medical history, lab work and ongoing monitoring.
- Hormone and peptide therapies require lab testing, careful prescribing and a clear understanding of contraindications.
Patients will continue to seek these treatments. The question is whether a physician stands behind the treatment plan. Physicians are trained to take a thorough history, recognize red flags, manage complications and know when not to treat. That is why Healthy Solutions Medspa believes a physician led medical director is the safest choice for medspa patients, and why the brand is franchising only to doctors.
How the Physician Owned Medspa Franchise Model Began
The Healthy Solutions Medspa model was born from a physician’s own experience with burnout. Dr. Michael Luciano opened his family medicine practice in Bucks County more than 17 years ago. As his patient panel grew past 3,000, the days became short visits, prior authorizations and evenings spent finishing notes. He was not alone. AMA data shows roughly four in ten physicians report symptoms of burnout, and family medicine is among the hardest hit specialties.
Dr. Luciano first moved his primary care practice to a concierge family medicine model, which gave him time to listen. His patients kept asking for help with weight that would not move, fatigue, perimenopause symptoms that had been dismissed elsewhere and wanting to look and feel like themselves again. He pursued additional training in obesity medicine, hormone therapy, peptide therapy and aesthetic medicine, and built that care into one physician led practice.
Together with his wife and business partner, Inna Luciano, Co Founder and CEO, he grew that practice into two locations in Ivyland and Furlong, Pennsylvania. As Dr. Luciano wrote in his recent essay for KevinMD, “I didn’t leave medicine. I left the way I was practicing it.”
What Physician Ownership Means at Every Healthy Solutions Medspa Franchise Location
Clinical Oversight That Is Real
Every Healthy Solutions Medspa franchise owner is a physician who stays clinically involved. The physician owner sees patients, reviews charts, sets the clinical standard and trains the team of nurse practitioners, registered nurses and medical aestheticians to follow it.
Services Rooted in Medicine
The service menu draws on what physicians already know and what patients are asking for:
- Medical weight loss, including body composition testing as part of the weight loss program
- Hormone therapy for women and men
- Peptide therapy and longevity care
- Injectables, including Botox and dermal fillers
- Skin rejuvenation, laser treatments, body contouring and IV vitamin therapy
- An optional concierge medicine component for physicians who want to continue primary care
Long Term Patient Relationships
The Healthy Solutions Medspa model is membership based. Patients return regularly for weight loss visits, hormone follow ups and aesthetic maintenance, which allows the physician owner to know patients well and care for them over many years.
A Practice That Fits Your Life
Dr. Luciano describes the biggest change simply: he got his evenings back. He was at the dinner table, traveled with his family and remembered why he chose medicine. The franchise is designed for physicians who want that same control over how they practice.
Who the Healthy Solutions Medspa Franchise Is For
Healthy Solutions Medspa is looking for the right partners.
- Physicians in family medicine, internal medicine, obesity medicine, OB/GYN and similar specialties who want ownership of their own practice
- Physician and spouse teams who want to build a practice together, the same way Dr. Luciano and Inna Luciano did

- Builders who share the brand’s values and see the franchise relationship as a true partnership
The franchise is not designed for absentee investors and non-physician owners.
