Have you ever thought about the real difference between a Licensed Esthetician and a Medical Esthetician? What makes one more desirable than the other? Is it more money? More capabilities? More “street cred”? In this episode, we explore the difference between the two titles to get to the bottom of what each are allowed to perform, and the capabilities of each.

About Ella Cressman:

 

Ella Cressman is a licensed esthetician, certified organic formulator, business owner, and absolute ingredient junkie! As an educator, she enjoys empowering other estheticians and industry professionals to understand skin care from an ingredient standpoint rather than a product-specific view.

 

She has spent many hours researching ingredients, understanding how and where they are sourced, as well as phytochemistry, histological access, and complementary compounds for intentional skin benefits. In addition to running a skin care practice, Cressman founded a comprehensive consulting group, the HHP Collective, and has consulted for several skin care lines, including several successful CBD brands.
