A master esthetician may perform nonablative procedures including laser hair removal under the general supervision of a physician or advanced practice nurse who holds an unrestricted license, writes the treatment plan and has at least 80 documented hours of training in the procedure; an esthetician without the master license may not. Injectables and ablative treatments stay with the physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant. The medical side of the business belongs to a licensed practitioner.
