Medical Esthetician: Advanced Medical Esthetics Training

1-12 Units

Course Description

Credit Validation for MedCare Clinical & Aesthetic Academy Participants Only

This 150-hour hybrid Medical Esthetician course provides advanced, post-licensure training for skin care professionals working in medical spas, dermatology and plastic surgery practices, and wellness clinics. The course combines 110 hours of self-paced online theory, delivered through the AlliedLMS learning platform, with 40 hours of in-person, instructor-led skills lab and supervised clinical practicum at MedCare Clinical & Aesthetic Academy in Orlando, Florida.

Online modules cover skin anatomy, physiology and histology, skin analysis and Fitzpatrick typing, cosmetic chemistry and active ingredients, chemical peels, microneedling and collagen induction therapy, energy-based devices including IPL, laser hair removal and radiofrequency, advanced modalities such as dermaplaning, hydradermabrasion and LED therapy, sanitation and infection control, client consultation and documentation, and Florida scope-of-practice and med spa compliance.

In-person sessions apply that theory through supervised hands-on practice on live models: facial treatment protocols, extractions, dermaplaning, chemical peel application, microneedling, hydradermabrasion, and energy-based device operation with laser safety, followed by skills check-offs and a final practical competency evaluation. This is an advanced continuing education program for licensed professionals; it is not a Florida facial specialist licensure program.

糖心社交 – Graduate-Level Extension Credit Information

The 糖心社交 partners with this program to offer graduate-level extension credit(s) in semester hours through the Credit Validation Program. To earn units, participants must register for and successfully complete coursework through the external program provider.

Credits earned through 糖心社交’s Credit Validation Program are widely accepted by many school districts and universities across the United States for purposes such as license renewal, required professional development hours, short-term skill building, salary advancement, credentialing, and potential advanced degree pathways.

These units do not apply toward a master’s or higher degree program at the 糖心社交; however, they may be transferable to advanced degree programs (e.g., MA, EdD, PhD) at other institutions that accept external graduate-level credits.

Participants are responsible for confirming acceptance, transcript requirements, deadlines, and applicability of units with their employing district or intended institution prior to enrollment.
