For med spa owners, practice managers and medical directors. Updated October 2, 2026 · Prepared by Prospyr. Prospyr makes practice software, not medical supplies, and none of the companies below is a Prospyr product or partner. Each summary reflects what the company publishes on its own website, checked October 2026. Pricing, account rules and product lines change, so confirm terms in writing before you open an account.

How do med spas buy injectables and medical supplies?

Med spas buy from two kinds of sources. Neurotoxins and dermal fillers come direct from the manufacturer, such as Allergan Aesthetics or Evolus, through a practice account tied to a licensed prescriber. Everything else (needles, cannulas, gloves, gauze, numbing supplies, peels, exam room equipment) comes from medical distributors such as Henry Schein or McKesson, specialty suppliers like Delasco, and spa suppliers for the esthetics side. FDA states that federal law requires providers who administer prescription drugs to buy them only from authorized sources. A website selling brand-name filler at "wholesale" prices to anyone is a warning sign, not a bargain.

How we chose this list

We looked for companies whose own websites show they sell to medical practices, aesthetic practices or spas, then checked four things a practice manager can verify before opening an account:

  • Authorized source. For prescription products, is the company the manufacturer or a licensed distributor that says how it verifies buyers?
  • Fit for a med spa. Does it name aesthetic, dermatology, plastic surgery or spa practices, or carry the products they use?
  • Published terms. Are shipping minimums, prices or account rules stated?
  • Service. Does it describe delivery speed, ordering options or account support?

We left out online sellers that list brand-name fillers or neurotoxins for anyone to add to a cart at "wholesale" prices, and a group-buying site whose brand list included products we could not match to FDA-approved US versions. The order is our editorial view, not a measure of results.

1. Henry Schein Medical

Henry Schein Medical describes itself as "the largest provider of medical supplies, equipment, and services to office-based practitioners" in the US and reports serving 140,000+ physician offices. Its plastic surgery page speaks to aesthetic practices directly ("Expand the reach of your Plastic Surgery Practice or Medspa") and organizes products by procedure, including Botox and dermal filler, chemical peels and surgical procedures.

What stands out:

  • Aesthetic practices named. It has dedicated pages for plastic surgery and dermatology practices, not just primary care.
  • Beyond supplies. It lists financing, design, modular construction and equipment sourcing through its solutions hub, which helps if you are opening or expanding.
  • Procedure-based lists. Shopping by procedure makes it easier to build a par list for each treatment room.

Right for: med spas and plastic surgery practices that want one primary distributor for medical supplies and equipment. Ask: what discount tier your expected monthly spend qualifies for, whether a rep visits your area, and how backorders are handled.

2. McKesson Medical-Surgical

McKesson Medical-Surgical supplies physician offices, surgery centers, long-term care facilities and care at home with branded and private-label products. It reports next-day delivery available to 95% of US locations and 99.8% order accuracy. Its site states that McKesson Medical-Surgical "is becoming Wellverse," so expect a name change on invoices and in its SupplyManager ordering portal.

What stands out:

  • Delivery speed. Next-day delivery reach is stated plainly.
  • Private label. Its own-brand products can lower the cost of gloves, gauze, syringes and other everyday items.

Right for: practices that want a large catalog and fast delivery for medical consumables. Ask: what license documentation it needs for prescription items, minimum order sizes, and what changes for your account with the Wellverse rebrand.

3. Delasco

Delasco was started in 1977 by a dermatologist and sells dermatology and aesthetic procedure supplies. It reports serving 8,500+ practices with 1,300+ products in stock, and lists chemical peels, microcannulas, a professional microneedling pen, instruments, sutures, cryosurgery, electrosurgery, dermoscopy and protective eyewear. It publishes a med spa brochure, offers free shipping on orders of $199 or more, and asks for license details when you request a professional account.

Right for: practices that want a specialist for procedure supplies, especially peels, cannulas and dermatology instruments. Ask: which Delasco-branded products have a name-brand equivalent you already use, and what volume pricing looks like.

4. Allergan Aesthetics

Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, makes Botox Cosmetic and the Juvéderm collection and sells direct to practices. Its ordering page states that account holders can order online through Allergan Direct via Allergan Advantage, by phone, or by EDI for larger practices, and that new customers apply for an account through its One Team.

Right for: any practice that offers Allergan products. Buying direct is how you know the product came from the manufacturer. FDA's 2024 alert on counterfeit Botox lists the product descriptions and manufacturer names that appear on authentic cartons. Ask: what documentation the account application needs, and how loyalty and volume programs affect your price.

5. Evolus

Evolus, based in Newport Beach, California, makes Jeuveau, a neurotoxin for frown lines, and the Evolysse line of hyaluronic acid fillers. It sells to practices through a provider account and runs provider rewards and a patient program, Club Evolus. It describes itself as focused on the cash-pay aesthetics market.

Right for: practices adding or comparing a second neurotoxin line. Ask: account pricing and minimums, how provider rewards are earned, and how the patient program affects what you charge.

6. Universal Companies

Universal Companies sells spa supplies, skin care, treatment supplies, linens, furniture and equipment, and names "medi spas" and day spas among the businesses it serves. It reports more than 40 years in business, lists prices online, and offers equipment financing and online training.

Right for: the esthetics side of a med spa: facial back-bar, linens, treatment beds, waxing and sanitation supplies. It does not sell prescription products. Ask: volume pricing and whether it offers a business account with terms.

7. Provista

Provista is a group purchasing organization (GPO) that negotiates contracts for non-acute healthcare sites. It describes "$168 billion in buying power" and offers procurement technology, analytics and contract implementation support. As a GPO, its role is negotiating the prices you pay, so ask which distributors deliver under its contracts.

Right for: larger or multi-location practices that buy enough supplies to benefit from contract pricing. Ask: membership cost, which distributors honor its contracts, and whether aesthetic products are covered.

Also buy direct: other injectable makers

Most aesthetic injectables are sold the same way as Allergan's: direct from the manufacturer to a practice account. Others whose sites we checked include Galderma (Restylane, Sculptra), Merz Aesthetics (which runs a US customer portal), Prollenium (Revanesse fillers and SoftFil microcannulas) and Crown Aesthetics (SkinPen, now part of Revance). Ask each one's sales team how to open an account. For compounded drugs, see our list of 503B outsourcing facilities.

Questions to ask any aesthetic supplier or distributor

  1. Are you an authorized source for this product? For any prescription drug or device, ask whether the company buys direct from the manufacturer and how it documents that. If the answer is vague, buy elsewhere.
  2. What license do you need on file? A legitimate supplier of prescription products will ask for a prescriber's license and a ship-to address that matches.
  3. What are the minimums and shipping terms? Compare order minimums, free-shipping thresholds and cold-chain fees.
  4. How do you ship temperature-sensitive products? Ask about packaging, transit time and what happens if a shipment arrives warm.
  5. How are backorders and recalls handled? You want written notice, not a surprise at the next order.
  6. Can I export my order history? Purchase history by product helps you set reorder points and cost each treatment.
  7. Who is my contact? A named rep or account manager saves time when something goes wrong.

Frequently asked questions

Can med spas buy Botox from a distributor?

Usually not. Botox Cosmetic and most aesthetic neurotoxins and fillers are sold direct by the manufacturer to a practice account. FDA reported in 2024 that counterfeit Botox linked to hospitalizations appeared to have been purchased from unlicensed sources, and states that federal law requires providers to buy prescription drugs only from authorized sources.

Is it legal to buy dermal fillers online at wholesale prices?

Be very careful. A site that sells brand-name filler to anyone, without checking a license, is not acting like an authorized source. Buy from the manufacturer or a distributor the manufacturer names, and keep your invoices.

Do I need a separate supplier for skin care and spa products?

Often yes. Medical distributors cover clinical supplies, while spa suppliers such as Universal Companies carry back-bar, linens and furniture. Many medical-grade skin care brands also sell direct to practices. If you are thinking about your own line, see our list of private-label skin care manufacturers.

Should a med spa join a group purchasing organization?

It depends on volume. A GPO can lower prices on supplies you already buy, but membership terms vary and some contracts only apply through certain distributors. Ask for a savings estimate based on your last 12 months of invoices.

Want your company considered?

We review this list quarterly. Distributors and suppliers that serve med spas can send their website and what they offer practices to info@prospyrmed.com. Inclusion is editorial and not paid.
