esthetician
Complexion care professional
An esthetician is a licensed skincare specialist who performs cosmetic treatments on the skin—facials, exfoliation, hair removal, and similar services.
The spelling with an initial "e" reflects the Greek root; "aesthetician" is an alternate spelling.
Estheticians work in spas, salons, and dermatology offices: My esthetician recommended a new moisturizer.
