What published research says

These numbers come from outside sources, not our directory; each one links to its source below.

• MAUDE has very few reports for powered dermabrasion devices (product code GFE, which covers microdermabrasion and Hydrafacial-type systems): 48 reports since 2000 (32 coded injury); a brand-name search finds 2 reports naming Hydrafacial and 1 naming DiamondGlow (2026 data). [1]
• The US Bureau of Labor Statistics counts about 104,200 skincare specialist (esthetician) jobs in 2025, with median pay of $45,330 a year, and projects 9% employment growth from 2025 to 2035 ("much faster than average"). [2]
• BLS says the largest employers of skincare specialists in 2025 were personal care services (52%), self-employment (29%), offices of physicians (6%), health and personal care retailers (3%) and traveler accommodation (3%). [2]

What these numbers can't tell you

• Counts are Google Maps listings we classify as med spas, so they include dermatology and plastic surgery practices that offer med spa treatments and exclude spas without a Google listing.
• A treatment counts when the spa's Google listing or website names it, so a spa with an outdated menu can be over- or under-counted.
• Credentials count only clinicians a spa names with a credential (MD, DO, NP, PA, RN) on its own website, so spas that leave their team off their website are left out of those shares.
• Prices are published prices on med spa websites: we keep each spa's lowest posted price, which often is an introductory or member price, so the typical bill is higher.
• We hold no patient records: every figure describes providers, their listings and their Google reviews, not who gets treated.
• Ratings and review themes are Google's, as shown on each listing on the snapshot date; Google filters some reviews and does not publish how.
