Perhaps “medical” aesthetics which may involve performing deeper skin peels, microdermabrasion and other services. There is apparently no formal licensure for a medical aesthetician as opposed to an aesthetician alone, but those with an RN degree may be able to find more work at a dermatologist’s office as someone else mentioned or such.
Regarding cosmetology (and nursing), please forgo those private overpriced for-profit beauty/tech schools and instead consider the more Affordable county vo-tech school or community college as long as the program is accredited within the industry.
