Esthetics Is More Than Outer Beauty

A good friend of mine is a master esthetician. She came all the way from Hawaii to attend a Utah esthetics school, and to be honest, until I met her, I had no idea what an intense and amazing field esthetics was. My impression of the industry came from watching the movie, Grease, where the girls sing a song about being a beauty school dropout. What they represent is an oversimplification of a very complex industry with many rewarding facets.

In any case, my friend is brilliant, beautiful, and spent as much time and effort in preparing for her career as any regular college student. I can honestly say that I learned things from her that I didn't even know existed.

In general, an esthetician must be able to analyze the client's skin care needs scientifically and provide recommendations on treatments and products. They must be proficient in the most current techniques for skin care and be able to teach the client how to maintain the treatments after they have left the salon. Most of that sounds commonplace to what is generally known about the profession, but what amazed me is that there is a paramedical aspect to their work as well.

An esthetics school graduate has the option of becoming a paremedical esthetician and working with plastic surgeons and dermatologists in pre-and postoperative skin care. Essentially, working in conjunction with a licensed health care provider, a master esthetician provides treatments that are designed to prepare the skin for surgery and to facilitate the healing process.

They also teach patients esteem supportive skills, like how to conceal irritation and discoloring while the skin is healing. I work with a charity that provides complementary surgery for children with all types of burns, and I can attest that the skills offered by a master esthetician are crucial to both the physical and emotional healing of those children.

So it really is a compelling field, and a graduate has a lot of options. The Utah esthetics school that my friend attended assists with job placement at graduation, and if a graduate is more entrepreneurial, they help with providing them the tools they need to be able to establish salons of their own. I even saw one on the news who had set up her business in Afghanistan to teach the trade in that country while helping people who had been injured be able to cope with their new appearance. There really are some amazing options.
