Estheticians are licensed professionals who are experts in maintaining and improving healthy skin. An esthetician’s general scope of practice is limited to the epidermis or the outer layer of skin.

Estheticians perform specialized skin treatments that include hair removal (waxing, threading, tweezing, sugaring), facial massage, body treatments skin care consultations, chemical exfoliation, eyelash and eyebrow tinting, eyelash extensions, aromatherapy, and makeup application.

Estheticians may also specialize in mechanical treatments such as microdermabrasion, microcurrent (also called non-surgical “face lifts”), cosmetic electrotherapy treatments (galvanic current, high frequency), LED (light emitting diode), and ultrasound/ultrasonic.

Estheticians treat a wide variety of skin issues as long as cosmetic in nature, such as mild acne, hyperpigmentation, and aging skin. Skin disease and disorders are referred to a dermatologist or other medical professional.

Estheticians (Aestheticians) are skin care specialists that are trained and licensed to perform skin treatments that improve the health of your skin. They are educated and skilled at dealing with the needs of the skin through facials, peels, microdermabrasion and other effective and beneficial treatments.

Estheticians are also able to analyze skin conditions and suggest viable treatment options utilizing techniques and skin care products. An esthetician helps clients reach their optimal skin health through individualized treatment plans and home care products specialized to their conditions. Should a more serious skin condition be suspected, they are able to recognize this and refer the client to a dermatologist when necessary.

Another way estheticians treat the skin and care for client’s needs are by approaching skin care holistically. It is becoming very common in esthetics to analyze all factors affecting the skin including diet, exercise, lifestyle and genetics. These elements are crucial in helping clients to not only improving their skin, but in understanding how important is to live a balanced, healthy life.

Dermatologists are experts in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention skin diseases and disorders, such as psoriasis, eczema, skin cancers, dermatitis and more. They are licensed to prescribe any recommended mediations or topical products needed to treat such disorders. Dermatology also allows for penetration into the dermal layer of the skin. This allows them to perform procedures such as cystic acne removal, biopsies, and more to remove any suspected skin cancers or fluids harmful to the skin.

Both estheticians and dermatologists have their place in the skin care world and are essential to the industry.

A facial is a treatment targeted to improve skin conditions and overall health and longevity of the skin. They are procedures that vary depending on skin type, concerns and purposes.

Facials are a way to deeply cleanse the skin to rid the pores of build-up. They most often include another crucial part of maintaining and improving any skin condition, called exfoliation. Extractions of blackheads, pustules and milia may also be performed, as well as the application of appropriate serums, mask and hydrators.

Following a treatment, you will notice definite improvement in overall skin tone, hydration level, smoothness of texture and even refinement of the pores. However, if you are looking for a drastic change this does not happen with just one visit!

Think of skin treatments as being similar to when you work with a personal trainer at the gym. After one session, you will most certainly not lose that 30lbs you’re trying to drop! It takes consistency from not only your workout routines, but from your diet as well.

The same philosophy goes for your skin! Consistent treatments and an effective home care routine are key to achieving your skin goals. It doesn’t take much and soon you won’t believe how great you look and feel. Not to mention all the compliments you will receive as well!
