What Is an Aesthetician?

Job Outlook

Employment of skin care specialists is projected to grow 20 percent from 2019 to 2029, much faster than the average for all occupations. Demand for beauty treatments likely will increase as the population ages and discretionary income rises, requiring the services of skin care specialists to rejuvenate and maintain clients’ appearances.

Some skin care specialists may find work in hotels and casinos or on ships that cater to higher-end clientele seeking upscale services. Additionally, some skin care specialists choose to become self-employed and open their own salons.
