aesthetician

Facial treatment provider

An aesthetician is a specialist in beauty treatments, particularly skincare—facials, waxing, and similar cosmetic procedures performed at spas and salons.

The word also refers to someone who studies aesthetics, the philosophy of beauty and art, though this sense is less common in everyday speech.

I booked an appointment with the aesthetician for a facial.
