HELLO :) I am a graduate student here at Medspa Institute of America. I took both Basic & AP courses. Before attending Medspa Institute of America I was school searching for 2 years & happened to come across Medspa. I instantly knew I had to reach out as they were offering the medical side of beauty & that was exactly what I was looking for! The staff there really care and they will guide you into the right path. One thing I love most is the flexibility they offer. They care and will help you balance between personal life and school! Honestly you don't see that around often.
Overall, my journey there was wholesome & I had so much fun there! I met & made friends whom are such incredible & inspiring individuals! They inspire me to keep thriving in life 
THANK YOU FOR THE WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE 
After researching several esthetics and medspa schools, I kept coming back to MedSpa Institute of America—and I’m so glad I trusted my gut! What set this school apart was their modern curriculum, their focus on advanced treatments, and how hands-on the training is. So many other schools felt outdated or overly basic, but this one stood out for offering real-world, luxury-level education. I am in the combo program and just about to graduate! I'm also going to be taking the laser course through MIOA. The facility is beautiful and fully equipped with the latest technology, and the instructors are true professionals and super sweet who care about your growth. From day one, I felt like I was being prepared not just to pass exams, but to thrive in the industry. You learn how to work with high-end products, build confidence with clients, and understand the business side of esthetics. If you're looking for more than just the bare minimum—and want a school that truly invests in you—this is the place
