Besides deciding what subfield of esthetician services you’re willing to specialize in, you’ll need to provide some additional services that will please your clientele. We’ll show you the options to choose from.

What Estheticians Cannot Do

Although the term “medical esthetics” is often thrown around, esthetics is not a medical practice and estheticians are not allowed to diagnose, prescribe, or treat skin conditions or diseases. Instead, medical skin care services are left strictly up to licensed medical professionals, such as dermatologists.

Estheticians are sometimes found working in offices of medical practitioners, such as dermatologists and plastic surgeons, but their expertise is solely in cosmetic skincare, with any type of invasive procedure always left to medical professionals who specialize in disorders of the skin.

Their work in these medical settings often includes providing patients with complementary and support therapies. However, estheticians are trained to recognize a number of medical conditions affecting the skin and may therefore refer their clients to a medical professional in these instances.
