An esthetician is a skincare professional who specializes in providing a range of beauty and skincare services. Estheticians focus on promoting and maintaining healthy skin through various treatments and procedures. Their services may include facials, chemical peels, exfoliation, waxing, and other skincare treatments. Estheticians are also trained to analyze and address different skin conditions, offer recommendations for skincare routines, and provide guidance on maintaining overall skin health.

Estheticians work in various settings, including spas, salons, skincare clinics, and wellness centers. They may also offer specialized services such as microdermabrasion, extractions, and facial massages. In addition to hands-on treatments, estheticians often educate clients on proper skincare practices and recommend skincare products tailored to their individual needs.

To become a licensed esthetician, individuals typically complete a state-approved esthetics program, which includes both theoretical and practical training. Following the completion of the program, aspiring estheticians must pass a licensing examination to practice professionally. Continuing education is often required to stay informed about the latest skincare trends, technologies, and products in the industry.
