I've never seen one😶 I wish I could go to one, but ive been disabled/on disability for almost all my adult life, so I just cant afford it.
I’m getting ready to see a dermatologist for the first time ever in a few weeks! Going for a skin screening :)
Last time I saw am Esthe was when I watched your video, I secretly love you 🤍
I went once when I was in high school, took over a year to get an appointment and the prescription was way too expensive for me to afford. So, terrible 🤠
Scared to go to either since I have friends with bad experiences with them 😅 I know everyone’s experience is different… but better safe than sorry
One of my biggest pet peeves lately is some esties I know, say that you don’t need a derm for acne, just lifestyle diet and products. It bothers me because acne isn’t that easy. I eat clean and vegan and still had cystic acne. It wasn’t until I had meds from a derm, where it got better.
I see estheticians like a therapist (you go to them if you’re going to a rough time and need someone to talk to, help with coping skills for issues) and seems as psychiatrist where you need more severe issues.
Rant over lol
This!
Sorry girl but clean and vegan do not equate to no acne. If you are nutrient deficient, acne can happen too. Thats why some people who are vegan with acne, once they start eating meat again, it gets reversed... Sticking to a strict diet e.g. macrobiotics for a long time is not necessarily doable in today's world. Humans are omnivores for a reason.
Way to miss the point just because I said I was vegan lol
Also derms deal with a whole host of skin related conditions, I've seen them before for scalp problems and hives, but never for face 😆. Derms may even deal with skin cancer and burns. Both are so different, I'm not sure they even see the other as a rival.
At first I was thinking the difference would be like a nurse vs a doctor.. but nurse practitioners exist 😅 which would remove my thinking entirely
@@DefinitelyNotAFerret Oh common, you can't compare a nurse to an esthetician. Nurses study for 4 years and estheticans just go and do 600 hrs of facials.
@@a.quetim6738 wait really? I assumed estheticians went through more rigorous training
I’m an esthetician and I actually hated my first job working in a big luxury spa because our job was to push super expensive products. They weren’t bad products but overpriced and they didn’t have enough choices for everyone.
To me this feels similar to the Radiologist vs Radiologic Technician/Technologists/Radiographer question. Both work in the same field (medical imaging) however one is a medical doctor who can diagnose illness and interpret medical images (i.e xrays) while a technician is a trained paramedic specialising on working various modalities (CT, MRI, Ultrasound etc) to produce said images. Their skills compliment each other so to me there's no question of which one is superior because they are specifically trained to do what they do to provide the best healthcare for patients. Speaking as radiographic technician myself 😊
Beautifully explained!
yes yes yes a thousand times yes. just imagine a young person who watches this and the valuable info they can take away. this is a near perfect video. thank you so much cassandra. you are truly beautiful, both inside and out!
It’s like the difference between an ophthalmologist and an optometrist. Ophthalmologists can do anything an optometrist does, but not vice versa.
Im a estethician and I understand that im not a dermatologist and when I see a case I can not help I send it to a dermatologist ( we work together)
First of all- Hair on fleek! 🤩 also very informative video thank you. I haven’t seen an Esthe in probably 10 years 👀 I guess it’s time!!
Where I’m from an esthe is a beauty therapist that has undergone extra training and need at least 2 years in the industry to qualify. A derma requires a degree in medicine and then 2 years of further training. To me they are worlds apart but I don’t live in the USA so I’m sure it’s different over there 🤷♀️
Definitely agree it is less apparent here, if only because of privatized medicine. I live in Los Angeles where you will easily spend $225+ seeing either a dermatologist or an esthetician. Culturally, both are seen as luxury services and thus their specifics are unfamiliar to the general public.
We also have a culture where people celebrate their "gurus" and misinformation in such a way that scope of practice goes out the window when many people are making their purchasing decisions. Note I said "purchasing" and not "health" decisions, that is the way we have to approach these things with privatized for-profit health care.
Just 2 years of further training? Are you sure? I'm from Europe and the shortest derm residency I've heard about was 3 years, in most countries it's 5.
Yea they’re completely different as one is a doctor.. Not really sure why or how anyone could be confused even Americans lol
4 years of college in a science related field, 4 years in medicine, 3 years of residency. :) Without telling you all the tests we take.
You are a true gem of the RUclipsVerse! Idk how the rest of the community feels about this, but I would, personally, LOVE to see content about dietary nutrition and skin health as well. I had no idea you were a nutritionist! Maybe that could be a segment? Being a lonnng time acne sufferer, it makes so much sense that I was diagnosed with PCOS and there's so much to learn about the hormone-skin-diet relationship and just not enough reliable content. Ps I have spoken to a derm and a dietician about this and unfortunately both had little knowledge so I'll continue to seek out medical advice, but I believe your genuine passion makes you look so much deeper into these types of things than many other professionals I've spoken to throughout the course of my overall health journey. Thank you so much for everything you do!
Love love your channel! Great input with logic and common sense❤️. Would you ever do a skin care video for skin who’s a bit older? (40-60). Thank you!!
I was thinking about being an esthetician because of you! I wanna work in a spa making others feel beautiful because we need that! Thanks for everything you do!!
This was so helpful! Thanks Cassandra!
Great video Cassandra! Love the curls! I saw the collab you did with @manesbymell and enjoyed it so much! 😃😃😃
Thank you so much for making this video to help to teach people the difference! Over the years of me watching you, you have taught me so much about skin and health. I wanted to let you know that you inspired me to do two major things in my life and I really appreciate you for that. You inspired me to become vegan almost two years ago and also to become a medical esthetician. I am going into esthetics school next month and I’m super excited. I hope to one day impact and help peoples lives as much as you have to mine. Love you Cassandra 💕😁
No comparison a dermatologist is a DOCTOR. An esthetician is like a knock off version
I love the derm/esthetics car analogy!
Very nice video and very educative!, i always watch your videos and as a dermatologist i can say that what you're exposing here is completely true!! Dermatologists usually see patients to solve a very especific clinic problem and tend to prioritize time and resourses in order to find a diagnosis and correct treatment, we usually have 20 minutes or less for a patient and you need to use that time to explain correctly ONE or maximun TWO clinical problems , so it's not the best enviroment for esthetics problems, that's why esthes are so necesary for taking care of skin issues in a very holistic way, thanks so much for your videos!! i love the way you educate people AND professionals including dermatologist!!🤗👍
Derms and estheticians for sure specialize in different things. But I say, their roles can overlap if said esthetician further trained and gains years of experience. Honestly the most crucial difference between the two is that one can do actual surgery and prescribe certain drugs when the other cannot.
Imo it's the other way around that they can overlap if a derm bothers to gain knowledge in the esthetics field aswell, most prefer to stay very clinical and focus on treating serious diseases so don't know much about otc products and their ingredients and don't bother with cosmetic procedures. The esthetician on the other hand will never have access to training that allows them to have the skills to diagnose anything (unless they study to be a doctor) so I feel like there is less overlap on their part.
I am an esthetician and I think a key component is wanting the patient/client to achieve their goals this needs to be done through educating ourselves on the newest information regarding treatment as well as educating the patient/client how to achieve their goals with the least interference to their everyday lives
@@morgianasartre6709 maybe you haven't seen a good derm? My derm has a bunch of otc sample size products that she'll go over and I can ask her about most products at the drugstore and she recommends a bunch of drugstore stuff. I'm pretty sure all derms do cosmetic procedures as well. I mean I get juvaderm emails constantly. My derm has given me names of people who can help with vericose veins because they don't do that specific procedure. But they even offer milia 'zapping' for 160$ for 16 milia. I've also been to a different derm who was extremely hands off and didn't communicate at all and just prescribed whatever to get me out of his office. I think you should try different derms and you'd have a much different experience c:
@@StonedSammieSue That is the difference between cosmetic and clinical derms, not all do cosmetic procedures or care about skincare.
@@morgianasartre6709and no, most don’t prefer to cure serious deseases, most dermatologist on my city only do cosmetical procedures, why? Pays more. I sent a client to a derms office with good reviews, she was told yeah we don’t treat acne here, but we can do lasers on you.
There’s actually some med spas or esthe offices that under the guidance of a derm. Which kinda bridges the gap I feel. They even prescribed some scrip meds for my skin when talking to an esthe (because she works with the derm right) which was nice!
This is amazing I was just thinking that when should I see a dermatologist or go to an aesthetician I can’t believe that you just posted this video I am learning so much
Ooo I love your pretty curls! I have super curly hair on all my hairs around my scalp, but my long hair only gets wavy😭 im planning on doing a big chop within the next year to see if it'll help. My mom and dad both have super tight curls, so I've always hated my hair cuz I wanted their curls🤣
I would recommend looking into the Curly Girl Method, I'd bet that your long hairs are being weighed down and stretched out by your routine.
When I stopped using shampoo, silicones, traditional towels and heat, my curly hair got even curlier!!
Those curls are looking amazing!
I wish I knew all this growing up with acne. It was so embarrassing. The struggle to cover it and hide my face, not knowing what to do, and the teasing was something I'll never forget. I still had acne...not as bad...until I went through menopause. All of a sudden it went away when I stopped menstruating. The one benefit in aging for me! This is a great video. Thanks, Cassandra.
Love your curls! Very flattering
I went to both & actually had chemical peels done by an este who worked inside a dermatologist office. Best decision of my life!
I love your curls!
Derm for my Rx Tret and injectables
Esthetician for my dermaplaning, microneedling. I'm fortunate to have both of these wonderful people working in the same office ♥️♥️♥️
This is such an under talked about topic in the skin industry. I chose esthetics over dermatology for a lot of reasons but the largest was going back to school for that long.
The clinical approach to skin is something that estheticians are not as versed or trained on as a derm would be. But for problems like acne, dry skin, toning and non medical conditions I would recommend going to an esthetician. Derms will likely prescribe something over delving deeper into a patient/clients routine and lifestyle.
I was put on accutane when I never needed it and wasn’t an appropriate candidate for this treatment. This isn’t to say anything bad about derms, but my doctors never once asked a single question about my routine or the products I was using on my skin. Esthetics saved my skin.
And with that said, simultaneously, we as estheticians cannot diagnose, cure, prescribe or treat. If you have a legitimate concern, go to your dermatologist but if you just need minor maintenance avoid medications and get a facial. Totally agree with Cass on this.
Hi , I love your videos ! I’ve learned so much! I have an important question regarding Wormwood applied on skin. I bought some Wormwood and mixed it with rubbing alchol and apply it to my skin. I’ve seen it heal wounds and scars. However more importantly is this safe? I’m sure others are concerned as a lot of this information about Wormwoods healing properties are talked about more. I don’t want to cause harm. Please give me advice. I know there are cosmetics that contain Wormwood ,but I’d rather make my own with rubbing alcohol or witch hazel. Thanks I’m sure I’m not the only one filled with questions about this.
Just started seeing an esti and omg I’ve never had such thorough care. My derm is great, don’t get me wrong, but my esti is giving me more results than I’ve ever had! Totally depends on the season of life I’m in on who I see.
I really enjoy following your content. Sometimes I’m a bit jealous, that some of the mentioned products aren’t easy accessible over here in Germany. But each time you talk about the „amount“ of money you need to spend to see a doctor, I feel so sorry for everyone, who isn’t able to just set up an appointment to get the help they need.
I don’t want to bash anything here, because it can take some time here, too to get an appointment or you don’t get an appointment for a derm with deeper knowledge about acne.
But to have a „free“ option to see a doctor and book a session with an esthetician as an add on and pay for it to do something extra nice for your skin is how it usually goes here.
Hey I wish you would try ayurvedic skincare products. I tried all sort of things and at the end of the day ayurvedic formulas work like magic for me.
Wish you were an esthetician when I saw one. But you were just thinking about starting your school journey when I went to an acne specialist esthetician.
😞 ❤️
But, we are glad that we have you now on RUclips to learn from 😊
This has nothing to do with the video, but your curls look so good!
As an esthi, I personally have seen an unfortunate amount of clients who have been given really bad advice/ product recommendations from derms. I respect derms but i truly believe that a derm needs to have an esthetician on staff & refer patient’s for consistent treatment plans for dealing with severe acne/other skin issues, monitoring how products are being used. I’ve seen too many clients who are given retinols/differin/topical anti-biotics & don’t know how to properly use them; resulting in severe skin dehydration or severe skin thinning/pain & discomfort.
I really hope derms & esthis can work together & learn from each other.
I’m an esthi, and I wholeheartedly agree. I have heard some outright absurd things derms have told clients…like not using sunscreen because they believed their acne was that bad…..they also overprescribe retinols to teenagers who can barely remember to shower or clean their room or do homework 😹
She explains it perfectly.
I think there should not be a rivalry, they are very different. One studies 4 years of college, MCAT exam to get accepted in medical school, 4 years medical school, USMLE boards exams part 1, 2 part I, 2 Part 2 and Part 3, apply for residency and 3 years of dermatology and exams to validate vs. the other one who does 600 hours of training doing facials. I think dermatologists don't like when an esthetician recommends stuff and procedures to patients and it ends up harming them.
So if you have acne or skin problems you see a derm and if you want to maintain then see an esthetician?
Can I just say, that metaphor was perfection!!
Derms handle diseases, medications, life long or serious issues involving any part of the dermis. They're medical doctors who will typically be diagnostic and to the point. Esths handle more acute and experiential things, and they focus more on treatments for specific everyday problems. They're professionals in a service industry that involves something akin to a therapy treatment.
Comparing the two is like comparing psychiatrists and psychologists. They're not opponents or entirely independent from each other; most people will find value and relief in consulting with both and every professional I've met has understood that both fields are important when helping patients.
Thank upu😻
Dermatologists have to go to college for 4 years and go to Medical school and get a degree. Esthetician or Aesthetician is just like a hairstylist except they don't do hair but an expert on skin. They don't need to go college and Medical school like a Dermatologists. They just go to beauty school take a course like 1000 hours and get license similar to a cosmetologist.
Your hair looks so moisturized here!!! Are you doing anything different??
In my country going to a dermatologist is quite rare unless you suspect a disease but I recently did and it was a shitty experience. I have recently started getting these weird scar-like creases on my face (first thought they might be pillow creases) that just come out of nowhere for no reason, as well as these weird dark blotches on some areas that also came out of nowhere, and a couple of older blotches that haven't gone away, I wanted to know what these all are and how to get rid of them. The derm looked at my face and said she didn't see anything. About the scars/creases/ whatever the f they are, she said that since they came out of nowhere they probably aren't scars. Then she sent me on my way with the bill. I got zero help or clarity about the issues I had. She did however prescribe me an acne cream. Except that I don't have acne. Yeah, I had a couple of pimples and blackheads. But that's not what I went there for. The scars have gone from one to seven within a month and my chin still looks like someone punched me because of that big dark blotch and every day I hate my face a bit more. And the derm was absolutely useless.
Might be something specific to US but in both countries where I lived at dermatologists do medical grade treatments - peels, lasers, dermapen, prp, dermabrasion, surgeries, diagnostic tests. The sentence where you say "derm will not massage your face or apply products" is either a generalization or misinformation. They will apply products - maybe a peel, may be your own plasma, maybe botox injection, maybe your new prescription cream that they will apply to show you how to use it, maybe a wound dressing... There are really plenty of ways how a dermatologists will touch your skin, even massage sometimes and even more ways of how they will apply products to your skin.
Hi Cassandra! I recently saw a Tik Tok from one dermatologist, about DNA repair enzymes, and would love to learn about them. Are they proven to be effective, or is it a myth, or what IS that?
Thank you, Ive been following you for thousand years, and love everything u do!
this reminds me a lot of the difference between therapists and psychiatrists!
I’m getting healthcare for the first time in forever and I have some growths in me that have changed and am wondering who I see for that and if it’s covered on normal healthcare plans… I appreciate any help as this is new to me. Thanks
To be honest I’m an esthetician, and I can’t tell you many obnoxious things I’ve heard clients have told me their derms tell me. Many overprescribe retinols and encourage acne sufferers to over exfoliate. One poor lady was even told by her derm to not wear sunscreen! I didn’t think her acne was as bad as both thought it was!
Obviously there are great derms, but this was also my experience as a teen with mild acne. I had very very mild acne when I was teen, & I was put on so much medication that actually destroyed my skin. I have actually learned how to turn my skin around by myself.
Hey Cassandra, do you still practice in esthetic’s? Like working on peoples skin?
This is a fantastic aspect to tackle, especially for people at the beginning stage of acne. How I wish I could be able to watch this long long time ago instead of going through all the pain in the past! Thank you Cass for elevating this idea!!!
I jump from skin treatment shops and spas a lot, never going back to those who like to sell you their stuff while doing your facial. I hate it when an esthe asks what my routine is, and pushes their cleanser, or toner, or cream because apparently I'm way too oily (i'm not, i'm oily and dehydrated with patches of dryness) and their products would cure my face. 😮💨
As for a derm I've only ever trusted one, and she's not even in my area. The amount of people in her clinic everytime i have an appointment says a lot. Haven't visited for more than 2 years. Wish i could find another trustworthy one near me.
So in theory, getting a chemical peel in an esthetician's office would be considered safe? Like I shouldn't bother doing that treatment in a dermatologist's office?
Can someone be both at the same time
there are of course overlaps but aestheticians are taught how to maintain health while derms are taught how to treat disease. but since "anti-aging" is so lucrative, derms naturally gravitated to the "health" space. hence, the rivalry. at the end of the day, a good derm and a good aesthetician are very similar: they are open-minded, believe their clients and are committed to educating rather than just admonishing.
Hey Cassandra I wanted to suggest for you to look into Dr Vanitta Rattan skincare products. I have been using her products on my face and my face has changed tremendously for the better. You would really enjoy her skincare line catering towards acne and hyperpigmentation especially for skin of colour. Please do a video reacting to her products because I genuinely know you would like the ingredients list. You and her are my favourite skincare influencers with credentials to back it up and I would love for you guys to do a collaboration please 🙏😊
I don’t understand why estheticians use steam I thought that it was a bad thing?
never thought about something like this lol
When I went to see a dermatologist they actually referred me to an esthetician.
Fan from Japan 🇯🇵
I used to go to derm clinic, and I can see my dermatologist bullying her esthetician.
Tbh they are completely different. One is a doctor the other optional skin care like spa treatments. Surprised there is confusion for anyone.
Actually, the real reason is...dermatologists do not want the labor intense services that estheticians do for less pay. They think because they have an MD at the end of their names, their jobs should be easier.
again, glamorizing the poverty and the less you can get. why become an esthetician and not a dermatologist? why studying less to do more? that’s not the mentality of successful people, my boy
My former aesthetician told me to avoid moisturizer as the skin doesn't need it.... some aestheticians do not give advice based on research studies
Many derms also ascribe to that belief. I don't think there is research that supports that everyone needs moisturiser 2x a day.
@@morgianasartre6709 I don't care about belief, I care about research studies. If a person is applying drying ingredients like vitamin A, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, their skin will get dry and therefore they need to use a moisturizer with humectants to counteract that and protect their skin barrier. Telling people who use products or have any sebaceous gland issue that they don't need to use moisturizer is harmful.
It's another thing if some someone is young, has normal skin with no skin concerns, no overproduction of oil, good skin-related genetics, and they don't use any drying or oil-stripping products - then sure they might not need moisturizer. But that is a very tiny minority of people.
@@carpediemearth On the contrary, most people have no dryness issues and don't use such drying products hence most people on the planet do not objectively need a moisturiser.
So like dermatologists are like fixers, like diagnosing and fixing the problems. While the estheticians works like advisors which help you prevent or avoid the problems from arising...
I don’t know if anyone asked you but it would be nice if you can try out the brand la vie en rose by Dimitra Katsafadou. It’s a brand that my mom and her friends love so I would like to know if it is as good as they say. (◕‿◕✿)
Cassandra, do you also recommend daily SPF for people with deeper toned skin who are indoors? I am roughly almond toned. It seems excessive.
Melanin in your skin doesnt give you much SPF. Even the deep skin tones provide SPFs only in the teens. Remember, coverings (shades, clothes, hats, walls, etc.) provide SPF. Michelle from LMBS did a really good video on this. She summarizes that most people -- no matter the skin tone -- only need to wear sunscreen indoors if there is sunlight directly hitting them or if they are sitting next to a big window and can see lots of sky. "Do you need sunscreen indoors?" -- ruclips.net/user/shortsa_2_ndmC8Cg
I'm sure the expert answer will always be to slather yourself in sunscreen all the time, but it feels excessive to me too. I use a moisturizer with SPF 15 when I wash my face in the morning, but won't put on anything else if I'm just staying inside. I only really use it on my body for a weekend music festival or beach vacation, and even then I don't do a fantastic job at remembering to reapply or anything. The sporadic use is enough for me to not get sunburn, which is good enough for me!
Since UV light passes through glass and even occasional contact can cause skin cancer, the answer is yes - you should ALWAYS be wearing SPF! Most dermatologists are recommending minimum of SPF 30 at all times
Imo it is excessive, especially to reapply if you are staying indoors. Like, you won't get cancer from that, you just won't, people who get skin cancer typically have a long history of tanning beds and frequent sun exposure at peak hours, not someone who sits home all day without sunscreen. It would be beneficial however for those who are militant about anti-aging, are trying to fade hyperpigmentation or are using actives that make the skin more sensitive to the sun like acids in their routine.
@@morgianasartre6709 here in New Zealand we have the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, we should ALWAYS be wearing sunscreen, even indoors. You can think it excessive, but when even children here get melanoma from occasional sun exposure, it's far better to be safe than sorry
I’ve never had help from derms
I gave up on them
It’s always it could be this
Might be this
And nothing you can do sorry
Here’s an allegory. Members of my family have PhD’s in Nutrition. They have done research, made important discoveries, created online nutrition applications for hospitals and dietitians, and more. Dietitians repeatedly think they know more, even are derisive of the advice received from my family. Guess which ones prove right most often? It’s those with the doctorates. Does that mean the dietitians don’t have good info? Absolutely not! Those who work in “the trenches” have a different perspective and understanding than the docs because they have more direct experience with people. It’s real world versus theoretical, and I mean by that that they each have value and fill an important need.
Oh god nutrition! I remember my animal nutrition class 😭 wasn’t expecting all the math involved with nutrition
I don’t trust Derms anymore. I have suffered with acne since my early teens and went to three or four derms, and none of them could help me the way I wanted to be helped I.e: break down why I have acne problems and skincare that I can get to help with that. More specifically, give me a list of specific ingredients that will help me with my acne problems. None of the derms could do that for me; but they did put me on medication accutane etc… that was a dark time in life, I have never thought about suicide so much in my life.
Anyway, I don’t want to rely on medication to have clear skin. once I discovered your channel and James welsh channel, I can truthfully say that I trust your opinion as an esthetician more than a derms. I won’t go to them in a hurry ever again in my life.
I would trust dr dray....
@@arihaviv8510 I should have been more clear: I don’t trust the derms I know in real life. Dr dray is really helpful! 🫶🏽
For skin care I'd rather see an esthetician. If I had a cyst or something I needed to have removed then I'd see a Derm.
Damn thats a lot of stock footage :D
But there are so many other skin conditions that we all have other than acne? Is that the main thing you specialize in? I thought estheticians were doing all kinds of things but you seem to mainly just talk about acne so I’m guessing that’s what you mainly specialize in? Genuinely just curious
What course of study does each go for
Dermatologists are medical doctors, so they have to go to college for 4 years and then medical school for an additional 4, and another 3 years of dermatology residency. Requirements for an esthetician license varies by state, and in some states you don't even have to be an adult. Training hours can range from 260 hours-1000+ hours.
It's like living with two beautiful girls.when my girlfriend comes and visits!first thing she wil do is when she visits is a kiss!Then iPad to comes out to watch Cassandra new videos and old. I hav learned so much from cassandra.i only hav one complaint.i would learn more if you were not so manic and talk slowly am British.
Crazy question but would be worth it to go through an esthetician school, work a bit and make some money then go to a medical school to become a dermatologist later on.
Or become a medical esthe and work in a derm's office or medspa under a dermatologist. I think that's better
When you see a dermatologist and you got good insurance depending on your prognosis sometimes it might be necessary to see that doctor twice a month but the overall results is wonderful. I say going to a dermatologist is way better🎉💯🙋🏻♀️🥰 because the doctor on know what is causing your symptoms can even draw blood to see what your blood has to say if there is certain diseases or genetic defects. That causes certain skin allergies overgrowth boils cysts folliculitis. Acne scarring, keloid. Certain skin yeast infections 👎🏼🏥👩🏻⚕️⚕️⭐💯‼️👀🥃 having a good evening medical doctor if you don't have a dermatologist also works. Both are good. Dermatologist is much more useful⭐💯‼️🥰✨🤔😇📺👌🏼 July 7th 2024
Oh dear, I only clean my car once a year...
There's a third tier missing from here... community based skin care from skintellectuals. This is the first line of defense, and thanks to this channel, and many others, I've been able to help so many of my friends and family with their skin care concerns.
So much is over the counter now a days and rather affordable. People just need help with the process.
I’m wondering do you walk around with products in your hand all the time I think when you speak you need to hold a product I’m only joking my beautiful butterfly
Every dermatologist I’ve ever seen has been extremely useless and just pushed cookie cutter medicines or creams. Most of which never helped or made things worse. They’re oftentimes rushed and don’t actually listen to a persons full story and they never take into account diet. Ever. I’ve seen estheticians who’ve done the same but I find they’re far more holistic and far more educated on different ways to actually heal the skin vs just giving out medicine and creams.
WAIT no cat meme?! 🥺
👍👍👍✌️
A dermatologist can be also an esthetician. But not viceversa
I don't think there is a rivalry lol, maybe in the mind of an esthetician who is insecure about their knowledge/their place in patient care.
there's no comparison
Derm is way above
That's what derm says 😀😀...
@@skintellectual7679 i'm not a derm tho.but i will trust a good derm over anyone
@J P don't get frustrated 😄😄..of course they have spent several years of experience..they know a lot abt skin diseases ...but while coming to choosing the right products 😄 ....many of the comments are favourable to my opinion...so don't get frustrated and cry babyy...
@J P i think u don't even know what an esthetician is .....
Drama 🎭 that’s your middle name.
It depends on the dermatologist and esthetician.. For example most estheticians in my area think that oily skin doesn't need hydration (only alcohol to dry the acne). It is so sad. They only extract pimples I hope by safe way. She didn't care about my skin care at home, didn't say something about SPF or so. I am sure she don't know what is she using on her client's faces.
If yours is like mine I'll suggest you leave until it's not too late...I love you Cassandra ❤️🥲
Actually, that’s definitely an exclusive experience that wouldn’t leave you to recommend someone to leave their job.
@@avasava7720 I am sorry, but I didn't understand the comment
Cassandra I just want you to help me with my skin and give me advise. 🥲
That's what she makes videos for, if you want an individual consultation you can go see an esthetician or a derm in real life.
