A practical path into clinical esthetics
The SKIN+ Clinical Esthetics Diploma is a one-year, hands-on program focused on how professional skin therapy works across spa, medi-esthetic, and clinical environments. It’s built for people who want practical skills, clear structure, and a realistic path into early-career esthetics roles.
