Paramedical Esthetics

New York School of Esthetics is proud to offer a Paramedical Esthetics program, the only in-person NYS-approved curriculum in the state. This one of a kind program designed for licensed estheticians who dream of working in the medical esthetics field: medical spas, or in collaboration with dermatologists or plastic surgeons.

Our three-week NYS-approved paramedical esthetics program helps licensed estheticians stay current in the Advanced Esthetics industry and build up their best career. Our program is a full-time, 120-hour program, which can be completed in just three weeks. You will learn advanced techniques and specialized treatments that are specific to the medical field of esthetics, as well as medical terminology, advanced ingredients, and skin care products.

Our experienced and qualified instructors teach a variety of skills that focus on advanced esthetic procedures, such as lasers, micro-current, Jet Plasma, Advanced chemical peels as well as medically treated conditions of the skin. This program is the perfect opportunity to identify and develop a niche or specialization within medical esthetics based on personal interests and career goals.

As a hybrid esthetics school, we offer full-time and part-time schedules for our students. New York School of Esthetics is accredited by the NACCAS and prepares students to sit for the State Exam. Besides our Esthetics program, we also offer a Paramedical Esthetics program, a Waxing program, and three advanced courses for licensed professionals. Unlike some other schools, we focus on science-based skincare rather than the current trends. Finally, our staff and instructors are an excellent support network for students who want to start their own business.

We are proud to be a Dermalogica Partnership School, and our students receive Dermalogica products in their student kits.

To enroll in this program, you must have a current state esthetician license. If you do not have a license and would like to learn how to be an esthetician, check out our hybrid esthetics program.
