I don\u2019t want to become a skincare expert, but I do want to know about the products that can help the appearance of my skin. I want to build a process that will work for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, where do I turn?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My first thought was Google. But I was cautious\u2014I didn\u2019t want to accidentally use a product that could permanently damage my skin. I needed an expert opinion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I turned to an esthetician.

Esthetician appointments don\u2019t have to be regular.<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-an-esthetician\"><\/span>What is an Esthetician?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might have heard the word \u201cesthetician.\u201d But before we talk about what they are, let\u2019s talk about what they practice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Esthetics, in the beauty world, is related to the skin\u2019s overall well-being and treatment. Basically, this is the routine people perform in order to make their skin look beautiful, bright, and, most importantly, healthy. It covers processes like pore cleansing, chemical peels, extraction, and facial steaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If terms like \u201cchemical peels\u201d and \u201cextraction\u201d sound new (and kind of scary) to you, don\u2019t worry. These are just a few of the more common esthetician services that require professional&nbsp;esthetician supplies or tools\u2014think of them as skin scientists.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Estheticians are skin experts<\/strong>. They\u2019re licensed to treat the skin and perform complex tasks that will improve the appearance and overall health of the epidermal layer. Additionally, estheticians are specially trained to aid in skin wellness and can address concerns their clients might have.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s important to note that estheticians aren\u2019t dermatologists. Dermatologists are medical doctors that specialize in invasive treatments for skin. Estheticians focus solely on cosmetic skin health, but can refer you to a dermatologist if needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So,&nbsp;<strong>now you know a little more about what an esthetician is<\/strong>\u2014but why should you care? Let\u2019s talk about that, next.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"should-you-see-an-esthetician\"><\/span>Should You See an Esthetician?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Short answer: absolutely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve ever had a pimple, a sunburn, or dull skin, consider seeing an esthetician. You don\u2019t have to have cystic acne or severe scarring to qualify for a skin assessment. In fact, everyone curious about maintaining their skin should consult an esthetician for a routine and treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"358\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124822\/Skin-mask-1200x419-1-1024x358.jpg\" alt=\"Should You See an Esthetician?\" class=\"wp-image-38881\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124822\/Skin-mask-1200x419-1-1024x358.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124822\/Skin-mask-1200x419-1-300x105.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124822\/Skin-mask-1200x419-1-768x268.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124822\/Skin-mask-1200x419-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-learn-more-about-your-skin\"><\/span>1. Learn more about your skin.&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most estheticians require a consultation. During a consultation, you\u2019ll share skin concerns, and the esthetician will inspect your skin. This isn\u2019t meant to creep you out; merely, this step is for them to analyze helpful treatments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The esthetician will tell you what they notice, break that down, and give you suggestions of what you can do at home. Even if you decide against making an appointment, you can still learn why and how your skin reacts to certain products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, I recently had an esthetician consultation for dark spots. She was able to virtually inspect my skin and give great advice about which products work best for my skin type (oily) and concerns. In that one hour session, I went from going from what I saw on Instagram to feeling like I had an actual routine that targets what I need.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-get-a-personalized-skincare-routine\"><\/span>2. Get a personalized skincare routine.&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before seeing an esthetician, I had no idea how to treat my skin. I had a basic cleanser, toner, and moisturizer. While most experts recommend this, it\u2019s important to know what the ingredients in products you use can do to your skin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knowing I was using products targeted for my concerns made me feel secure. More than that, I was sure that the products were going to give me the results I wasn\u2019t finding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of looking at social media advice from people who didn\u2019t have my skin type, I was able to receive guidance from someone who is licensed to give scientific advice. I\u2019m by no means a skin expert, but I know just enough to treat the specifics at home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-receive-insight-about-skin-health-from-an-expert\"><\/span>3. Receive insight about skin health from an expert.&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier, I mentioned how you don\u2019t have to have cystic acne to see an esthetician.&nbsp;<strong>If you have an interest in the health of your skin in general, an esthetician is the person to find<\/strong>. They can give you insight into skin concerns you might not even know you had.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, estheticians can tell you why your current routine may not be working, and what you may be doing that harms your skin in the long run. For instance, I never wore sunscreen. I honestly didn\u2019t think it mattered, especially since I work from home and spend a lot of time inside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An esthetician told me that the sun\u2019s UV rays can still be damaging from a window. It\u2019s important to wear sunscreen daily to protect your skin\u2019s layers. And, if you\u2019re hyperpigmentation like me, it\u2019s a necessity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without this knowledge, and an extra tip of how much sunscreen to apply, and how often, I would\u2019ve never seen the results I was expecting from the products I was using.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-experience-a-range-of-services-created-to-improve-skin\"><\/span>4. Experience a range of services created to improve skin.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The specific number and type of esthetician services offered by different professionals will vary. For example, here is a short list of facials provided at the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/booksy.com\/en-us\/205489_vitalityspa-club_medical-esthetician_18229_chicago\">VitalitySpa.Club<\/a>, and you can find them on the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/booksy.com\/en-us\/\">Booksy app<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"549\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124853\/VitalitySpa.Club_-1024x549.png\" alt=\"Booksy app\" class=\"wp-image-38886\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124853\/VitalitySpa.Club_-1024x549.png 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124853\/VitalitySpa.Club_-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124853\/VitalitySpa.Club_-768x411.png 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124853\/VitalitySpa.Club_.png 1163w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to facials, this esthetician offers eyelash extensions, chemical peels, extractions, hyaluronic acid treatments, and retinol boosters. It was great to use the Booksy app to see reviews and photos of what a typical treatment would look like, especially for a person who had never gotten a facial before (me).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can come to an esthetician about questions for complex terms you\u2019ve heard but, maybe, had no idea what it meant. For example, I\u2019ve heard about hyaluronic acid, but if you asked me to define it, I would have no clue. However, an esthetician can explain this in layman\u2019s terms&nbsp;<em>and&nbsp;<\/em>tell you if you should add it into your routine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some treatments I would rather have a professional perform, like an extraction. Complex treatments like extractions and chemical peels have home remedies, but they should be performed by skincare experts who are trained to use them so you don\u2019t accidentally burn your face. That sounds scary, but it\u2019s true.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124926\/Skincare-expert-1200x675-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Esthetician appointments\" class=\"wp-image-38891\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124926\/Skincare-expert-1200x675-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124926\/Skincare-expert-1200x675-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124926\/Skincare-expert-1200x675-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bks-blog-prd-wp-new-blog.storage.googleapis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124926\/Skincare-expert-1200x675-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-esthetician-appointments-dont-have-to-be-regular\"><\/span>5. Esthetician appointments don\u2019t have to be regular.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve looked into some estheticians already, you might have navigated naturally towards the price tag. Because estheticians offer such scientific, wellness-oriented services, it might not be that cheap.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if you\u2019re worried about your wallet, remember that you don\u2019t have to see an esthetician regularly. While it is recommended, it\u2019s not required. For a budget-friendly esthetician experience, schedule a consultation and ask for some product recommendations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That way, you can begin to treat your skin safely and not break the bank. Further, source information from skincare experts on social media.&nbsp;If you have an Instagram account, consider following&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/booksy.com\/en-us\/445460_aesthetic-glo_beauty-salon_119514_san-fernando-valley?do=invite&amp;_branch_match_id=834919364144917430\">Aesthetic Glo<\/a>&nbsp;@<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/aestheticglo__\/?igshid=19u1cq5wmkj2k\">aestheticglo_<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/booksy.com\/en-us\/469666_belle-complexions-medical-aesthetics_medical-esthetician_16058_lake-mary\">Mason Leary of Belle Complexions<\/a>&nbsp;@<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/belle_complexions\/\">belle_complexions<\/a>.

And, when you use the&nbsp;Booksy app, you can book an appointment with one in your area at any time, from anywhere.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Seeing an esthetician can give you peace of mind<\/strong>.
