About theProgram
The 220-hour Facial Specialist Program provides everything you need to complete the required training for Florida licensure. Your enrollment also includes Advanced Product Knowledge training, Advanced Chemical Peels, PCA Peel Certification, Dermaplaning Certification, and Lash Lift and Tint. Most importantly, the program includes post-graduate mentorship.
Advanced Aesthetics Training is 68 hours of optional supplemental industry education covering microneedling and HydraFacial. After successfully completing the required 220-hour Facial Specialist Program, you'll have the opportunity to receive this training at no additional tuition cost. It is not required for graduation or Florida licensure—it's an added benefit we offer to help our graduates stand out.
The program is 9 weeks long. Contact New Beauty Company Aesthetics Academy directly for current session schedules and time commitments. We work with students to accommodate professional schedules when possible.
Graduates of the 220-hour Facial Specialist Program earn their Facial Specialist license along with PCA Peel Certification and Dermaplaning Certification. These credentials are recognized by employers throughout Northeast Florida and signal competency in high-demand advanced treatments.
No! The 220-hour Facial Specialist Program is designed for beginners entering the esthetician (also spelled aesthetician) field and provides the complete required training for Florida licensure. Whether you're just starting your career, changing careers, or researching training programs, our program prepares you with the skills medspas actually need—from day one.
It is hands-on rather than academic—the challenge is technique repetition, not exams. Our program is built for beginners, with one-on-one supervision as you practice facials, extractions, and peels. If you can commit nine weeks of focused effort, the material is absolutely learnable; here's how to become an esthetician in Florida from zero.
For most students, yes—Florida's 220 required hours are a fraction of what most states demand. Included credentials like PCA Peel and Dermaplaning raise your earning ceiling from day one. See the Florida esthetician license requirements for how the license renews and grows with you.
