Dermalogica is a skincare brand offering professional products and treatments, often performed by licensed estheticians. An esthetician is a licensed skincare specialist trained to provide a wide range of skincare services, including treatments with Dermalogica products. While Dermalogica refers to a brand and treatment protocols, esthetician is a professional credential. Both roles often overlap in skincare clinics and spas, but estheticians have broader licensing requirements and can offer various skincare services beyond specific brands.
