I totally feel you about the first con. I started nursing school with the sole purpose of becoming an aesthetic nurse and I feel guilty because most of my classmates want to save people’s lives in the ED or ICU and I just want to work in a med spa. But I’m obsessed with aesthetics and skincare and I feel like I shouldn’t force myself to do something I know I wouldn’t enjoy just because it’s needed.
Amy, aesthetic nursing may not be 'essential' to life but I think for alot of people your job is essential to their mental health/happiness...something as little as Botox injections every 3 months, some fillers, sun damage spot removal, etc...can do wonders for a woman's or man's mental health/happiness. I could be wrong tho...I'm a Critical Care RN/Life Flight Nurse and that's all I've ever done or known so all the above mentioned is my two cents worth of personal opinion. Happy that you found something you are passionate about. We all need that.
This comment means so much to me. Thank you 🤍
Yes! Absolutley
Yep I left the hospital too because of how I was being treated
Hi Amy! I’m taking classes in august to begin my career in aesthetics. I think the breaking point for me for bedside nursing is taking care of people who don’t want to get better/don’t take care of themselves. It just doesn’t make me happy. I believe that treating people who want to better themselves is the route for me.
This is so true. I’m glad you’re finding your way out 🤍
Nursing wasn’t my first career choice. But I am forever grateful for everything and everyone I’ve met and learned from along the way. I just know that aesthetics might be my niche in life. I already have things planned and in the works to make this special not only for myself but for my future clients.
@@deelevonne4188 how did you go from nursing to aesthetics. I am on the path to be a RA and I have no idea what to do to become specifically a cosmetic nurse
May I ask what classes you’re taking ? Im currently in college now to get my BSN degree from my understanding to be an aesthetic nurse I have to be a registered nurse
How did it go
You worked hard and deserve a good work balance life. 👏 Just because you dont work bedside doesn't make u any less of a nurse. Thats the beauty of nursing, the opportunities. I couldn't keep working with the unsafe ratios...
good for you! be so proud of your choice. u can tell u love what u do.
I’m going to begin nursing school this upcoming school year and I’m so excited to look into all of the different ways I could do nursing and I’m definitely considering this!! Thanks so much for this video ☺️
Thank you for this insightful video of aesthetics nursing! I am an RN in the ED right now and I am looking to pursue aesthetics nursing as something different from bedside care. This video gave me the extra push that I need with a great a idea :)
omg yesssss thhis is the struggle i have righht now in nursing..im in my last ssemester of the BSN and i have been loving your videos. i DO NOT want a stress filled life for a career job. no one seems to understand this! my bf is a new grad ER nurse and the stress, amount of exams he has to take, he is menntally exhausted everyday. he loves it but he only loves it when its drama and fast paced. i have been working since im 15 and i knnow for sure i do not want a hustle bustle drama everyday career
You don’t have to work in a hospital as a new grad. It’s good for experience and time management, but if you don’t plan on doing it, no need. I wish I had known this and embraced it. I’ve worked at a job that drains me for 3 years. There have been some good times, but I wish I would have gone straight into aesthetics or something more appealing to begin with.
Hi Amy,
I’m currently working in critical care and looking to get out ASAP. I have an interview at a plastic surgery office today actually 😄. Please don’t feel guilty. Hospital nursing is very hard right now, but it’s not the fault of nurses who work in different areas. Tons are leaving because hospitals are demanding more of us and the work is so stressful. I’m so glad that you work in a field that you enjoy. Hopefully in a few weeks I will be able to say the same.
Did you end up taking the job at the plastic surgery office? I'm wondering what that's like!
Do you recommend nursing malpractice insurance? If so what company would you recommend?
How and where did you get your license to become an aesthetic nurse? How was the transition from bedside to aesthetic? I'm currently working bedside and would love to be an aesthetic nurse, but not sure what certificate/license I need & how to get there.
Omg ur video is the only one that gave me all pros and con that I need before I proceed to aesthetic nursing. Thank you!
Hi amy. What are the aesthetic procedures that. RN can do in Flórida? And what course is necessary to do these procedures? Thanks in advance
do I have to follow q nurse Study first to be a aesthetic nurse? or can I just follow a beautyschool / aesthetic school? I don't sure what is the engelish word for that?
I left bedside recently and become full time at a med-spa with full medical, dental, and visions. My workplace offers great selection of Anthem Blue-cross options which I thought is pretty legit. They also have 401k if I work more than 1000 hours which can be equivalent to a year of commitment staying at the company. I love my job and I do make as much as bedside when I was doing nights where I was at or even more if I make good tips that day. My recommendation is do a good research on the company that you are looking at and plus how many clients day have a day, instead of switching from bedside to med-spa immediately, i would do part time first at medspa if they do offer minimum 2-3 days a week to feel the clients they get and if the place is always busy. I usually don’t complain about back to back and being booked for 1-2 months because that indicates that the company does have a stable numbers of clients coming in and you won’t be sitting around doing nothing or don’t get called in for work. The more you see clients the higher tips/commission you can make. Real nurse or not, as long as my job pays off my bills, students loans, and my coffee. I mean I do make relatively the same amount or more then I don’t see why I need to become more stress and get paid the same lol. Don’t get me wrong, being a bedside nurse is a true calling and I do RESPECT bedside nurses for what they do because it is not easy. At the end of the day, everyone has their ways of living their lives and how they want to live it. Do what makes you happy. All RNs and nursing students took or will take the same exam so called the NCLEX. We are all real nurses here no matter where you work. As long as the workplace uses your RN license to perform tasks and responsibilities, YOU ARE A NURSE.
Omg this is what I want to hopefully attain once i become a nurse. Im in nursing school rn and do not want to work bedside
Hi Amy! How long were you an RN in a hospital before going into aesthetics? I’m graduating next month and would love to jump right into aesthetics if possible. I’m wondering how feasible that is without any RN experience at all.
Hello, i wanted to ask do medspa hire male nurses? I’m currently working as a anesthesia nurse but am possibly thinking about switching? But not sure if employers would hire a male aesthetic nurse, TIA
Do you have to be an RN to work in med spa clinic, or am okay at LPN? I know some specialties require RN but I just want to be an LPN for now
I want to be an aesthetic nurse because I don’t see myself working in a hospital. I’m currently in the military and I’ll be leaving but definitely don’t want anything super stressful or triggers my anxiety/PTSD (yay military 😭).
Congratulations on your new move. You should look into owning your own place. Let us know where you’re at so we can book an appt and meet you. You are beautiful. And congrats on the move I could see your happiness and glow good job 👍
This means so much to me! I would love to own my own place some day. Thank you so much for the support!
I am asking from Canada. In my province, we are not allowed to accept tips because of the ethics behind it. It can legally be seen as a under-handed deal. I recently went to a seminar with the legalities of aesthetic nursing in Canada. Specifically regarding fillers and Botox. We are not allowed to charge more than the cost of Botox, we cannot offer deals, advertisements, or use of our title “nurse” with skills that are considered non-nursing. So laser therapy, which can be completed by a medical aesthetic practitioner. I was wondering how this works in your area? Thank you so much the most informative video.
do you think it’s possible to go straight into aesthetic nursing after graduation or would medspas be looking for clinical experience? also, would you recommend getting your BSN even if hospital work isn’t your goal or would an ADN be sufficient for this field?
I am wondering the same thing! Let me know!
There are many nurses that start after nursing school in aesthetics. I did ;) you have to look for a medspa that is willing to train.
@@AR-xf4yy how long did it take for you to find work? I want to do the same as well go straight into aesthetics.
@@kallibanks8418 I applied for a corporate medspa on indeed and within a month they got back to me. No prior nursing experience in aesthetics. You want to add all of your work history on the resume. Many big chain medspas train their nurses in house. It’s usually when you look for a job at a private practice that they ask you for experience. When you work for a corporate medspa there are standardize protocols in place, and their in house training based on the services offered. I also tell nurses trying to get in to aesthetics to go the corporate route and apply for part time positions to see if this is really your calling. With that said apply everywhere, you may find a private practice that is will to train a new grad. Wishing you good luck on your aesthetic journey :)
@@AR-xf4yy thank you this is such good advice!
I’ve been in the hospital for several years always looking for a way out. But aesthetics has been impossible to get into.
Do you get 401k or 403b and benefits working at your employer?
Since you didn’t have previous experience, how many certifications did you have to get when you got the job of an aesthetic nurse?
None required, I chose to get a Botox and filler certificate three months in but there are none required as an aesthetic nurse.
Where did you go for your trainings?
do you think that with aesthetic nursing getting so popular, there will be less open positions in the future?
I think with the increase in popularity, there’s an increase in people learning about the treatments and trying them out. Botox used to be for mostly older patients and now I treat mostly 18-25 year olds more than anything. It’s a growing industry all around in my experience.
I believe it will open a new door of ideas and bring new jobs and skills to the beauty industry for nurses.
mmm until we are billed as income earners not as couches there's no incentive for anything to change inpatient. def try to release the guilt. the reason the majority of nurses aren't at bedside is because they are done being in... insert many adjectives environment! it's a smart decision. and take care of yourself and make sure your family members do to because if anyone needs that care... it isn't a good time to receive it. ha.
i’m really interested in this.. i want to do something in the medical field, especially er and l&d but it seems like it could be too hectic and feel like i have too many lives in my hands? the pay is definitely better for aesthetic nursing too so it definitely helps. i was also wondering.. i have lose skin from weight loss, what’s the best service for that in aesthetic nursing? do you get discounts? sorry for all the questions lol!!! i’m super curious
Do you think this field is becoming saturated or there’s still plenty of opportunities out there?
It is in south FL, & Cali (lots of competition and everyone's doing it..atleast in those 2 states)
Not sure about other states but I will say this...if you know you should do it and feel passionate about it...do it because God will always make a way for you.
Look at Bread & cereal isles...
Find where you Excell if you can offer the best lip filler methods then hone in on that!! Botox magician go for it..chin/cheek expert 👏🏼 ayee 🔥 🔥 🔥
Never let the saturation of anything scare you luv what's for you is for YOU ❤
But aren’t the complications of injections pretty severe?
Do i need to get a nursing degree first ? x
Yes..thats a must
Don’t feel guilty about not being in the hospital - if they want to retain staff they need to treat nurses better. It’s not your job to fix a broken system.
