Medical Esthetics (4 Day conference)
Highly motivated estheticians have sought advanced education and have helped to define the emerging role of the esthetician in a medical office. These estheticians have become an increasingly important and recognized adjunct to the physician. Among the cosmetic services available today, the largest increase has been in nonsurgical procedures, such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels. This clearly indicates the increased value of an esthetician to the medical profession. This demand has resulted in a larger number of physicians offering cosmetic treatments, treatments before and after surgery, and a wide array of skin care products. Estheticians not only help with skin therapy before and after surgery, but they also play a less-celebrated, although crucial role in managing their patients' comfort and well-being. Working within a medical facility can be
a fulfilling career choice for estheticians. Understanding your role and your limitations, can ensure full support and teamwork with your physician.
