Working in Skin Care?

I would like to be an Esthetician, but I'm having a hard time devoting time and school into something that would only get me hardly k a year. For a career, that's not a lot. I looked into Medical Esthetician, but I don't believe they make much more.

Note: I'm NOT willing to becoming a Dermatologist - I was set on that path and decided that surgeries and the deeper part of skin is not something I want to do.

So does anyone have any ideas? Or experience in being an Esthetician and have any tips on how to make more money? Does it require more education or where you work? Developing more skills?

Thanks for your input in advance,
Shayla

Aesthetic Surgery

Looking good has never been easier, and more affordable. Millions of men and women around the world are seeking plastic and aesthetic surgical techniques and procedures for a variety of reasons; beauty, anti-aging, and even to help compete in today's highly competitive economy.

Aesthetic surgeries are growing more common as minimally invasive techniques offer patients high-tech surgeries with reduced chance of tissue damage, complications and also offer shorter recovery time.

Individuals throughout Europe, Asia and the Americas are traveling to ancient Munich, Germany to benefit from the expertise and experience of Dr. Christian Lenz, a specialist in aesthetic surgical procedures.

Located in one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery in Munich, Germany offers a large range of treatments and procedures for men and women seeking the best in looks, self-confidence and self-esteem. Dr. Lenz and his experienced and highly qualified staff at the state-of-the-art surgical clinic center provide such services.

The modern facility offers ambulatory surgery, monitoring and patient rooms as well as a fitness center, hair salon and cafeteria. "Each of our operating rooms offer the latest technologies in advanced plastic and cosmetic surgical fields," says Dr. Lenz. "The atmosphere in our facility is conducive to health and healing."

Treatments offered at Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery include:

• Face lifts
• Tummy tucks
• Breast surgeries; lifts, reductions and augmentations
• MicroNeedle surgery

Individuals seeking a sleeker appearance to their face, abdomen, buttocks or breasts have found excellent, experienced care and superlative results at Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery. As a specialist in breast and facial surgical procedures, Dr. Lenz offers years of highly qualified experience and training, having completed nearly 2,000 breast surgeries and nearly 500 face lifts, including neck modeling and eyelid surgeries.

Dr. Lenz completed his degree in Medicine at the Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich in 1995, completed his post graduate studies in surgery at the Plastic Surgery Hospital at Dachau, and training in aesthetic surgery at the Marie Hospital in Bolzano. In 2005, Dr. Lenz was honored and recognized as a specialist in his field and began serving as Medical Director of the Munich Residenz Clinic and since 2010 has served as a resident physician at the Med Nord Clinic Dr. PfA¼tzenreuter.

As a specialist in plastic and reconstructive surgery and procedures, Dr. Lenz offers hope and confidence through his surgical techniques and experience. His ability and expertise in the advantage of minimally invasive surgical techniques has propelled Dr. Lenz into the forefront of cutting edge technologies that offer safe, affordable and effective medical care and results.

"Dr. Lenz offers compassionate and understanding care," says Pramod Goel of PlacidWay, a growing medical tourism and provider portal based in Denver, Colorado. "He takes the time to answer his patient's questions and define the best procedures that meet their needs. Physicians like Dr. Lenz are what make medical tourism such a viable, effective and affordable option to individuals around the globe who would otherwise be limited in their options."

Traveling to Germany for Cosmetic and Aesthetic Surgery

Germany is a land of beauty, mystery and history, one that offers the Bavarian Alps and the Black Forest, cosmopolitan cities like Berlin, Munich and Frankfurt, and some of the best food in continental Europe. Known for its advanced and state-of-the-art technologies and research, medical providers in Germany benefit from the latest tools and equipment in plastic and reconstructive surgeries.

beauty school license advice: cosmetology or esthetician ?

i am a college student witht he summer off. im looking into beauty schools.. in my area. the first one i looked at was an estetician school. but i found out about another school that does cosmetology (mainly hair)..
i cant decide which license would be more beneficial for me..
i think the cosmotology schools sounds liek more fun.. but the estetician school seems like more financially sound.. and.. more serious..
because u study anatomy.. chemistry etc.

for a college student... what would u recommend a license in?
my parents are offering to let me do one school part time this summer..
to see if i like the career.. while i major in psychology in college.
any thoughts on what to pick?

I know about the Neutrogena chemical peel that is a strong chemical solution that you wash off your face. I’m looking for the peel that you literally peel off your face like you skin is coming off.
