How Many Med Spas Are in the US? Counts and Med Spas per Person, by State

AuraVenu lists 7,588 med spas and aesthetic clinics across all 50 states and Washington, DC. Against a US population of 341.8 million, that is 2.22 listed med spas for every 100,000 residents, or about one for every 45,000 people. Three states, Florida, California and Illinois, hold 41% of the listings between them.

These are the clinics we list, not every med spa in the country, so the real total is higher. Our coverage is also fuller in some places than others, which matters a lot for the per-person figures; the section on what the counts leave out explains how. For ratings, treatments and chains, see our US med spa statistics.

Listings divided by Census Bureau population estimates for July 1, 2025. Grey: the US as a whole.

Washington, DC has the most listed med spas for its size, at 7.64 per 100,000 residents: 53 listings for a population of about 694,000. Florida is second at 6.41, then Illinois at 4.51. North Dakota and Wyoming come next at 4.25 and 4.08, where a few dozen clinics go a long way in a small population.

Nineteen states and Washington, DC are above the US figure of 2.22. California, with the second-highest count, sits close to it at 2.70, because its population is so large. Texas is at 1.55 and New York at 0.83.

Med spas listed on AuraVenu in each metro area, November 3, 2026. A metro takes in its suburbs.

Los Angeles has the most listed med spas of any metro, at 516, with Chicago close behind at 498. Miami, at 395, Atlanta, at 351, and Tampa, at 348, follow. Five of the ten metros in the chart are in Florida: Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach hold 1,474 listings between them.

We do not show per-person figures for metros, because we draw our metro areas by city and suburb, and our data does not carry a population for them. For the clinics in a metro, open its page from the chart.

What the counts leave out

The counts depend on where we have searched most closely. In November we searched ten large metros in small grid cells, and the totals changed a lot as a result:

• The US total. 4,569 listings in our October data, 7,588 in November.
• Florida. 357 listings in October and 1,504 in November, after Miami, Tampa, Orlando and the Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale areas were searched. Its figure per 100,000 rose from 1.52 to 6.41.
• Illinois and GeorgiaIllinois went from 90 to 573 and Georgia from 87 to 430, as Chicago and Atlanta were searched.
• Other statesVirginia, Washington, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and Washington, DC all gained listings the same way.

So a high figure per person partly reflects how closely we have searched a state. A low one, such as New York’s, may mean more clinics there are still to be listed. Compare states with that in mind, and do not compare these figures with our October numbers, because the group of clinics is different. We will keep adding listings, and the figures will be refreshed in each monthly snapshot.

How we got these numbers

• The sourceAuraVenu’s US listings as of November 3, 2026: 7,588 med spas and aesthetic clinics.
• PopulationU.S. Census Bureau, Vintage 2025 state population estimates for July 1, 2025. The US figure adds up the 50 states and Washington, DC, 341,784,857 people.
• Per 100,000 residentsA state’s listings divided by its population, times 100,000. The US figure is all 7,588 listings over the US population.
• MetrosA metro takes in its main city and nearby suburbs. Connecticut and Delaware are covered as states, so they are left out of the metro chart.
• What a count isA listing, not a census of the industry. Not every med spa in the US is listed, and coverage is fuller in the metros we have searched most closely.
