Medical Spas/Sharps DisposalÂ
Medical spas are held to the same regulations as a medical practice: environments must be clean and sanitized, and the medication, such as Botox or Dysport, must be secured and stored according to guidelines. After a procedure is finished, med spas are required to dispose of used needles as any other sharp. Medical spas should establish means for the safe handling and disposal of sharps devices before the beginning of a procedure involving any kind of sharp instrument. Discard sharps items and complete needle and syringe units directly into sharps box immediately after use, and place sharps boxes at eye level and within arm’s reach. Used sharps can only be disposed of in a sharps container Sharps containers may be purchased from supply companies, such as Medical Solution Sharps containers must be rigid, puncture-proof, and have lids that seal securely
