What is an esthetician license?

An esthetician license is a license that allows you to legally work in esthetics, which is the industry of beauty and beauty treatments. Esthetician licenses are received after completing an esthetician program and meeting other requirements for licensure.

Esthetician licenses prove that you have a basic understanding of estheticians and are trained in a range of topics, such as skincare and treatments. Throughout your career, you need to continually renew your license to continue working. This proves that you are aware of all current industry standards and any changes that have been made since you last renewed.
