Training that raises your rate

• Advanced chemical peels

  Stronger treatments at higher prices. Some states limit the strength an esthetician may use.

• Laser and light treatments

  Well paid, and in many states restricted to working under a physician's supervision. Check your own state before paying for a course.

• Microneedling and body treatments

  Added services that lift the average ticket without changing your license.

• Lash extensions and brow work

  High demand, strong repeat business, and quick to learn.

• Medical spa experience

  Working next to a dermatology or plastic surgery practice is the biggest single jump in pay in this field.
