Medical Esthetic &
Laser Courses

Medical Esthetics – often referred to as paramedical esthetics – incorporates a similar philosophy to that of traditional spa esthetics, and even involves many of the same approaches to developing and maintaining healthy, beautiful skin. What makes medical esthetics unique is that many of the treatments can be performed on patients by Medical Aestheticians in a clinical setting alongside medical professionals who may recommend non-invasive skin care procedures for medical purposes, or for strictly cosmetic reasons.

Estheticians working in the medical field do not have medical training of any kind, but apply traditional, complementary and alternative treatments under the on-site supervision of a licensed healthcare professional in settings that include:

Dermatology Clinics

Working in a dermatology clinics requires medical estheticians to understand diseases & disorders of the skin, such as acne, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis.

Cosmetic Surgery Clinics

In addition to standard esthetics treatments that would be performed in a traditional spa setting, medical estheticians in Cosmetic Surgery Clinics would perform specialized treatments such as scar reduction, pre and post-care surgical instructions.

Medical Spas
