Frequently Asked Questions
What does an esthetician do?+
An esthetician is a licensed skincare specialist who provides cosmetic treatments like facials, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, dermaplaning, waxing, and lash and brow services. They assess your skin type and concerns and build a treatment plan to improve how your skin looks and feels. They focus on cosmetic skin care, not medical dermatology.
How much do esthetician treatments cost?+
A basic facial typically runs $60-$150, chemical peels $75-$300 depending on strength, microdermabrasion or dermaplaning $75-$200, and waxing from about $15 for a brow to $80+ for larger areas. Prices vary by city, spa tier, and the esthetician's experience. Many offer package pricing for a series of treatments.
How often should I get a facial?+
For most people, a facial every four to six weeks matches the skin's natural renewal cycle and keeps results consistent. If you are targeting a specific concern like acne or pigmentation, your esthetician may recommend a more intensive schedule at first and then space treatments out for maintenance.
What is the difference between an esthetician and a dermatologist?+
An esthetician is licensed for cosmetic skin treatments — facials, peels, exfoliation, and hair removal. A dermatologist is a medical doctor who diagnoses and treats skin diseases and can prescribe medication. If you have a diagnosed condition, persistent pain, or a changing mole, see a board-certified dermatologist first; an esthetician can complement that care with gentle, appropriate treatments.
Should I get a patch test before a treatment?+
Yes — for chemical peels, waxing, or any treatment using active ingredients, a patch test 24-48 hours ahead helps rule out a reaction, especially if you have sensitive skin or use prescription actives. A good esthetician will ask about your skincare routine and medications before starting.
How do I choose a good esthetician?+
Check that they are licensed by your state board, look at real before-and-after photos of their work, and read reviews for cleanliness and consistency. A strong esthetician asks about your skin type, concerns, and any medications, performs a patch test when appropriate, and sets realistic expectations rather than overpromising.
