When it comes to questions about whether to wear gloves, refer to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) at www.osha.gov. OSHA standards developed in 1970 were passed to protect employees from harmful work conditions. The bloodborne pathogens (BBP) regulation was added to OSHA standards in 1993. That means Estheticians MUST wear gloves. There is no way around it.
M edical personnel are growing more aware of the extent of an esthetician's training and realizing the potential value in bringing an esthetician into the medical environment. Working with a physician in a medical office or medical spa can be very rewarding for both physician and licensed esthetician. When an esthetician becomes part of the medical staff, it helps expand the business to include medical esthetic treatments and to offer long term age-management programs.
