VIO Med Spa Earns Inc. 5000 Recognition as It Builds for Next Phase of National Growth

Sep 4th, 2026

VIO Med Spa signed 15 new franchise owners during the first six months of 2026, marking its strongest first-half development performance since the brand began franchising, the company announced in an August press release.

The nationally recognized, physician-guided medical spa franchise also renovated its brick-and-mortar chains during this time, introducing a next-generation store design that reduces the footprint and investment required to open a location, a new membership model that supports recurring guest engagement, and expanded investments in clinical leadership, digital capabilities, purchasing, and operational efficiency.

The company also earned Inc. 5000 recognition and advanced several strategic investments designed to support responsible long-term growth.

The company's renovations come as the U.S. medical spa industry has surpassed $17 billion in annual revenue and continues to grow by more than $1 billion each year, as rising interest in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures drives demand for medically guided brands with established clinical infrastructure and protocols.

“This year’s growth is the result of deliberate decisions to make VIO stronger at every level,” said Ryan Rose, CEO of VIO Med Spa. “We are bringing the right owners into the system while improving the model they are investing in, from a more efficient store design to stronger clinical, digital and operational support. We are not pursuing growth for the sake of adding units. We are building a smarter, more scalable business designed to lead the next phase of the medical aesthetics industry.”

The new franchise owners include experienced multi-unit operators, physicians, nurse practitioners and professionals with backgrounds spanning healthcare, hospitality, real estate, fitness and business operations.

“Signing an agreement is only the starting point,” said Ryan Rao, Chief Development Officer of VIO Med Spa. “Our focus is ensuring each owner enters the right market with the training, clinical resources and operational support to build a strong business. The caliber of owners joining VIO, together with the investments we are making across the platform, positions them to grow with confidence and deliver the level of care guests expect from our brand.”
