What is An Esthetician and What Do They Do?

An Esthetician Can Make Your Skin GlowProfessional Esthetician Working At Athena Wellness Center

If you want to have a beauty regimen that’s really going to set you apart, you need an esthetician to help you get the job done. With everything from facials, to microdermabrasion, to chemical peels, an esthetician is a skin care specialist that can make sure that your skin ends up looking great. Estheticians are valuable to more than just people who want to look good – they also play a role in the medical community, and are able to recognize skin conditions that require the attention of a dermatologist. Some skin conditions are also symptoms of internal problems, and estheticians can help you tell the difference. Do you want to make sure that your skin looks wonderful at the end of the day? Here are a few ways that an esthetician can transform your skin into a glowing masterpiece.

Facials

A facial is combination of treatments for the skin on your face. The purpose of a facial is to rejuvenate your skin, restoring surface-level health, and addressing concerns of skin texture. Different facials will address different problems; for example, cucumbers are used to reduce inflammation, and blackheads can be extracted from the skin during facials.  LED Photofacials are relative newcomers on the skincare front, with LED lights providing benefits to aging, hyperpigmented skin.

Hair Removal

For a number of decades, all of the beautiful women of Hollywood have been smooth under their arms and on their legs, and men have had limited body hair, and no one has missed the message. Hair removal is the most-often-practiced aesthetic modification in the world. Most people remove their own body hair in the comfort of their home, but it is also the most common salon service. Estheticians are usually licensed to wax, depilate, and provide laser hair removal treatment. It is important to consult an esthetician before choosing laser – not everyone can tolerate the effects, and laser has been known to cause scarring on sensitive skin.

Varicose Vein and Cellulite Treatments

Though varicose veins and cellulite are a normal part of aging, and sometimes a side effect of weight gain, they are not considered ideal additions to your skin. Both make the skin look textured when it should be smooth, and both can be embarrassing on the beach, or in revealing clothing. Treating these minor cosmetic skin conditions can help boost the confidence of anyone dealing with them, and boost your joy as you watch them fade over time.

Eyebrow Shaping and Eyelash Services

Neither men nor women like bushy, out-of-control eyebrows. An esthetician can help you shape your eyebrows in a way that works with the shape and contour of your face, using several hair removal techniques, including threading, depending on the esthetician’s training. Eyelash extensions should only be applied by a trained esthetician, as they usually involve being perilously close to the eye, and the potential for accidents that could affect your vision is high. Whatever you decide, make sure that your esthetician is licensed to work in your state.
