Truth! Experience counts in addition to a license. There are too many inexperienced professionals who don’t have the critical knowledge, skills or experience practicing esthetics. Then you have social media influencer marketing that is just not solid science-they are just making money off of clicks and sales. Please seek the advice of a licensed professional with many years of experience if you want to make changes in your skin!
This is a great reminder for clients and Estheticians: ALWAYS check the credentials of anyone offering advice about skin care or esthetics in general such as online advice, courses, books, social media. It’s easy to get an Esthetician license; it’s much harder — and often takes years — to earn the role of a trusted expert/mentor, etc.
