Time is running out in the state of Washington, where the “Master
Esthetician” licensing law passed in April. Some estheticians are just hearing
about it, and in order to continue to perform services or be able to incorporate
them into their practice, you must act now!
Specifically, the
law now affecting Washington State Estheticians has a very limited time for
Grandfathering. What this clause does, is allow estheticians already practicing
to meet specific requirements. Obtaining the Master Esthetician license by
endorsement thereby increases current scope of practice. If Estheticians do not
act and apply for endorsement by January 1st, 2015, according to the law,
estheticians will need to go back to school to attain additional training.
Typical grandfathering clauses are at least a couple of years and then also have
a contingency endorsement even after the grandfathering clause has expired. Not
the case in Washington, and so here is what you need to know as a Washington
state licensed esthetician.
You’ll qualify to apply for the
master esthetics endorsements if you meet the requirements below by January 1,
2015:
more of the following requirements:
- A national or international diploma or
certification in esthetics that recognized by the state of Washington. - A
license in Washington as an instructor in esthetics for a minimum of 3 years. - Experience or education in medium depth peels and experience or education in
laser operation:
- Provide proof of either 7 hours of training in
medium depth peels or 35 hours of experience providing medium depth peels under
the delegation of a licensed physician, advance registered nurse practitioner,
physician assistant or other licensed professional whose license permits such
delegation or supervision.
and - Provide proof of either 75 hours of
training in laser operation or 150 hours of experience working as a laser
operator under the delegation of a licensed physician, advance registered nurse
practitioner, physician assistant or other licensed professional whose license
permits such delegation or supervision.
