Master Esthetician
If you have a passion for skincare and beauty, it’s time to look into a career as an Esthetician. Centura College offers two esthetician programs designed to cater to varying levels of expertise and career aspirations. Individuals with a desire for skincare education can enroll in the Professional Esthetician program, and then upon completion, continue on to the Master Esthetician program for advanced learning. The Professional Esthetician program is for individuals just starting their journey in the field, providing a strong foundation in essential skincare practices, treatments, and client communication. The Master Esthetician program is tailored for those who seek to elevate their skills to the highest level, delving deeper into advanced techniques, medical spa procedures, and in-depth skin analysis.
Program Overview
Whether you want to specialize in intricate procedures or establish a solid footing on your career path, Centura College’s dual esthetician program approach ensures that aspiring estheticians have the opportunity to receive the education best suited to those goals and aspirations. Students who complete the Professional Esthetician program are then able to enroll in the Master Esthetician program. After the completion of this program, students will have the opportunity to take the practical and theory exams for Master Estheticians with the Virginia Board for Barbers and Cosmetology Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation.
Career Opportunities
Upon completion of the Esthetician diploma program, students can work in a variety of career settings including spas, salons, or wellness centers and dermatology offices. The demand for skin care specialists is expected to grow 9% between 2022 and 2032 according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, this equates to approximately 12,400 openings that are projected each year. A Professional Esthetician and a Master Esthetician both have a range of job opportunities available to them within the beauty and skincare industry.
