Education on Your Own Terms: Hybrid Training
At Wrapture Beauty Academy, we understand the demands of life, work and family, and have structured this program to be delivered using our hybrid model: a combination of online and hands-on training.
This allows you to study theory at your own pace before attending the hands-on training. Our theory is designed to adapt to different learning styles and fit each student’s ability and availability. It includes quizzes, tests, and reviews at the end of each chapter to help you gauge your progress and anchor new knowledge. Your practicum will take place under the guidance of an experienced educator and skin care esthetician.
Esthetician vs. Medical Esthetician
What is the difference between an esthetician and a medical esthetician?
Esthetician: An esthetician primarily focuses on providing services such as nail care, beauty, and skin care such as facials, exfoliations, and waxing. When it comes to skin, an esthetician treats the outer layer of the skin, known as the epidermis. Their expertise revolves around improving its appearance and health through traditional techniques with an innovative take to reflect current knowledge.
Medical Esthetician: Medical estheticians take skin care a significant step further by incorporating advanced treatments, including energy-based treatments that require specialized training and expertise to treat skin for dramatic results. They treat the deeper layers of the skin, such as the dermis, using innovative equipment, including different types of lasers, intense pulsed light, radiofrequency technology, microneedling, and advanced clinical procedures.

Popular Medical Esthetic Treatments
At Wrapture Beauty Academy, we train you to learn advanced techniques that include operating a range of advanced esthetic technologies such as IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Photofacials, radiofrequency, fractional lasers, microneedling, and laser hair removal to address a variety of skin concerns. These technologies offer targeted treatments to help clients visibly improve their skin’s appearance and address specific issues.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is an increasingly popular treatment that targets hair follicles, resulting in reduced hair growth in treated areas of the face and body over time. People are increasingly seeking it out at younger ages and in more areas of the face and body than ever before.
Non-Surgical Facelift
Using laser and radiofrequency (and sometimes IPL energy), skin texture is smoothed out to reduce fine lines, undereye circles and bags, and diminish the appearance of large pores and age spots, while facial and neck contours are sculpted and tightened. All without surgery!
Hyperpigmentation & Tone
IPL Photofacials and certain laser treatments, such as fractional lasers, target patches of hyperpigmentation, such as sunspots, age spots, redness, broken capillaries (those small veins found around the nose and cheeks) and uneven skin tone, by breaking down excess melanin and hemoglobin in the skin. Laser is also one of the most popular treatments for melasma.
Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Laser resurfaces the skin and stimulates collagen production, which helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in smoother and firmer skin.
Body Rejuvenation
Contouring, Stretch Marks, & Cellulite: Radiofrequency (RF) energy tightens and firms the skin, helping sculpt body contours, reducing cellulite’s appearance and promoting a more youthful look. Fractional laser addresses stretch marks and any other undesired scars or marks on the body.
Acne Scarring
Laser and microneedling target acne scars by promoting collagen remodelling and skin resurfacing to treat both pigmented acne scars (dark spots) and atrophic scars caused by cystic acne (or other conditions such as chickenpox scars).
Uneven Texture
Fractional lasers and microneedling treatments improve skin texture by promoting the growth of fresh, new skin cells and stimulating collagen production. This tightens large pores and smooths out scars and premature signs of aging.
Skin Rejuvenation
Many of these advanced medical esthetic treatments contribute to overall skin rejuvenation by stimulating collagen, improving elasticity, and promoting a healthier complexion. Even if a client is not necessarily there to target just one concern, you will find that once your clients see the results of laser, they will come in for maintenance sessions of energy-based facials and the rejuvenation of the neck, decollete, and hands. The demand for body RF and laser is also on the rise for sculpting, toning, and addressing cellulite, scars, and stretch marks.
Skin Resurfacing
Fractional lasers, microneedling, and picosecond laser treatments offer skin resurfacing benefits by promoting the removal of damaged skin cells and encouraging the growth of new, smoother skin. They are perfect for advanced maintenance facials.
Tattoo Removal
Picosecond lasers are used for tattoo removal due to their ability to break down ink particles more effectively and quickly than traditional laser systems. Surrounding tissue is left unharmed, making picosecond lasers, such as Cynosure‘s PicoSure, a more comfortable tattoo removal option. You will find that clients coming in for tattoo treatments do so for a variety of reasons such as tattoo removal, tattoo diminishment to prep for a new tattoo, and to treat ‘tattoo blowout’ when the ink ‘bleeds’ or blurs out past its outline.
What else? Although these are examples of the most common concerns people look to medical estheticians for, advanced and energy-based treatments have the ability to be adapted to treat even more than is listed here. As new scientific discoveries are made, we are finding more ways to use laser for skin beauty and rejuvenation. Medical esthetics truly is an exciting and evolving field full of new possibilities to bring confidence and skin wellness to your clients.
