PROVEN & SUCCESSFUL TRACK RECORD:

1. We are Central Virginia’s ONLY Accredited Master Esthetician school, focusing ONLY on Esthetics training.
-NON accredited schools do not have an outside independent mechanism for overseeing educational quality as we have through accreditation metrics. As an Accredited school, we have metrics we must meet to demonstrate our success such as Licensure and Placement rates.

We ONLY TEACH Esthetics and our ONLY focus is Esthetics.

2. We are the ONLY Master Esthetician school focusing ONLY on Esthetics in Central Virginia recognized by US Department of Education to accept Financial Aid.

3. The school has a 17 years in business track record. We have an advisory board of individuals in the industry who evaluate the curriculum and facility every year to help keep us current with the demands of the industry.


4. We have a medical director and we teach to the medical based skincare level.
This is important since clients are flocking to medspas for corrective, antiaging products and treatments versus Fluff-Facials! Our students have access to opportunities to work with a multitude of advanced product lines and treatment machines, not offered at all schools.

5. We have Medspa equipment not available in all schools in the state of Virginia.
MedSpa treatments are in demand and the equipment is more advanced than a normal spa.
Hydrafacial, several types of Microdermabrasion, Microcurrent, Ultrasound, LED and Lymphatic Drainage machines, Light therapy & Skin Rejuvenation machines, just to name a few. We use medical based skincare lines such as SkinCeuticals and VI PEEL, just to name a few.
IPL is one of the most popular non invasive skinrejuvenation techniques.
Our Master program includes IPL training (non laser) at no additional charge. This is a great value as some schools in the USA charge an additional fee.We are the ONLY school in this area to offer onsite IPL machine & onsite IPL training. This is Huge when applying to work at medical spas!

6. We have job placement assistance.

7. We have extensive state board exam prep in our curriculum and have high pass rates on our annual report licensure metrics. This is Huge!

8. Train with Textbook Author & Master Esthetics Instructor: The school founder and lead instructor, Laura Todd, has contributed as an author to some of the Milady textbooks used in esthetician schools across America (and Internationally as well).

9. Our instructors maintain a continuing education each year keeping them and you up to date with industry trends, not all schools require this.  Read about our EXPERT FACULTY here.

10. We helped make things happen in Virginia with the Esthetician Licensing Laws with our Grass Roots Effort.
-The school founder, Laura Todd, helped lead the grassroots effort that secured licensure in the state of Virginia. Then, making history as the "1st full term Esthetician Seat of the Board that Regulates Esthetics", she was appointed by the Governor of Virginia to serve on the board where she worked closely with staff to develop the esthetics regulations. She then went on to serve as a subject matter expert to develop licensing exams and contribute to esthetic textbooks. She strives to maintain her "Finger on the Pulse of the Esthetics Industry", works tirelessly as an advocate to elevate the industry and help aspiring estheticians build a bright and successful career!

What our Graduates are Saying:

Picture
I chose to attend the Institute of Advanced Medical Esthetics because I felt that this would be the best school in Virginia to obtain Both my Basic and Master license.  The Director Laura Todd has done so much for esthetics in Virginia and continues to do so. The instructors will make sure you are well prepared for whatever esthetics career you chose to pursue after you graduate. With the smaller class sizes the instructors are able to give each student individualized attention and help them when needed. I am very pleased with my experience here and would highly suggest anyone who is looking to become an Esthetician choose the Institute of Advanced Medical Esthetics.  - Devan Graduate

I decided to attend the Institute of Advanced Medical Esthetics because the school was accredited and because of Laura Todd's impact on the esthetic community.  I wanted a career where I could be my own boss. It was at Institute of Advanced Medical Esthetics where I truly found my passion for skin care.  ​I was not only taught great esthetic skills, but business skills as well. Because of what I learned in the Master Esthetician program I was able to start my own successful business. I get to help people every day with their skin issues and building their confidence. Since being out of school and speaking with other estheticians I've come to realize just how much more I learned than students who attended other schools.  I receive compliments all of the time "you are the best esthetician I've ever been to". I know I owe that all to Laura Todd. I am truly grateful for the education I received from Laura Todd and her entire staff.  -Audra Graduate


Picture
I could not be happier changing careers to become a Master Esthetician.  ​Having dual licensure not only allows me to stand out in the job market, but also gives me the qualifications and expertise to treat a wide variety of skin conditions that a Basic Esthetician cannot.  Working in a dermatologist's office, I also see patients with chronic skin diseases such as rosacea, and guiding them through the process to better skin health with the doctor's cooperation has been especially rewarding. I absolutely do not believe I could have made it to where I am without my training at the Institute of Advanced Medical Esthetics.  The curriculum that goes above and beyond the state minimum requirements for licensure gives me a knowledge base that puts me above my competitors, and my patients can see it.  Building trust between yourself and your patients is critical to success in this industry.  - Richard  Graduate
