From improving your skincare routine or exploring advanced treatments, we can assist!
To kick things off, we’ve answered some of the most common questions about aesthetician services:
What are aesthetician services?
Aesthetician services are professional skin treatments designed to enhance your skin’s health and appearance. These services can include facials, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and more. At Essential Dermatology, we tailor all our treatments to meet your unique skin needs and goals. From tackling acne to reducing the signs of aging, or simply maintaining glowing skin, our team has your back!
How are aesthetician services different from dermatologist treatments?
Think of aesthetician services as the foundation of skin health, providing treatments like facials and exfoliation to maintain a radiant complexion. Dermatologist treatments, on the other hand, tackle more complex medical skin issues, such as eczema, psoriasis, or skin cancer. At Essential Dermatology, Dr. Michael Krathen, an experienced dermatologist, works hand in hand with our aestheticians to offer a holistic approach to skincare.
What skin concerns can an aesthetician help with?
An experienced aesthetician assists with a variety of skin concerns, including acne, dryness, uneven texture, dullness, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. Our aestheticians at Essential Dermatology are equipped to create personalized treatment plans to address your specific needs. With expert care and state-of-the-art techniques, you leave each appointment feeling both refreshed and confident.

Are aesthetician services safe for sensitive skin?
Yes! At Essential Dermatology, we understand how to work with sensitive skin, tailoring treatments to ensure they are as gentle and effective as possible. Before starting any aesthetician service, we discuss your skin type, concerns, and sensitivities to create a customized plan just for you.
How often should I book aesthetician services?
The frequency of your visits will depend on your goals and the condition of your skin. For general maintenance, we recommend scheduling a service every 4 – 6 weeks. If you’re targeting specific concerns, such as acne or pigmentation, our team will suggest a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
