More information
A Clinical Aesthetician provides specialised skin treatments to enhance clients' appearance and address dermatological concerns. You might work in a clinic, spa, or medical facility. Clinical Aestheticians focus on advanced skincare techniques, including laser treatments, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion. You’ll assess clients' skin conditions, recommend appropriate treatments, and perform procedures to improve skin health and aesthetics.
Clinical Aestheticians play a crucial role in clients' skincare journeys. You’ll need to have a strong understanding of skin anatomy and be detail-oriented. You’ll also need excellent communication skills to educate clients on post-treatment care and maintain a professional and empathetic demeanour throughout their treatment experience.
