Your Society was in Sacramento. πŸ“

CSPS members went straight to the Capitol for Legislative Day, meeting with 16 legislators and legislative aides to advocate on your behalf.

The issue on the table: med spa oversight in California, who is operating these facilities and who is supervising them. Right now, patients often can't tell who is actually holding the device or the syringe.

CSPS is pushing for clear protocols and real patient protections, because standards shouldn't be optional when it comes to patient safety.

This is what your membership funds: a seat at the table when the decisions that shape our specialty are being made. Full recap at the link in bio.
