Our instructors understand what it takes to be a professional esthetician and strive to provide an educational experience that goes beyond current skincare trends. You can learn the science behind skincare through classroom work and hands-on learning in the student clinic.

Besides these three subjects, you can also receive certification in microdermabrasion, microcurrent, body treatments, and light chemical peels.

See What Our Students Have To Say

I studied esthetics here and had a great experience. The highlight of my experience was when I decided to do the additional paramedical course with Irina. She was thorough, informative, and refused to move on from subjects until we all fully understood what we were discussing. The paramedical course gave us an in depth background into paramedical esthetics, and also gave us additional certifications for dermaplaning, advanced chemical peels, and laser. I immediately was hired to work at a MediSpa upon graduating at Luz MediSpa in Somers NY, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything has turned out. Big thank you to Irina and all the ladies at New York School of Esthetics!

Patrick M.

The NYSE is incredibly passionate about teaching and preparing their students for the state board test and to succeed in their future as estheticians. The paramedical program was the best decision I made. The program is taught by knowledgeable and experienced instructors which increased my confidence to perform in depth procedures. The instructors make sure you have reliable learning resources during and after the course.
