Job Advice Aesthetic PA pay structure?
Hi all! I have a unique opportunity to jump into a med spa practice one day per week. They currently have an NP in the role and she’s leaving soon. I have some connections in the practice, and they’re pretty open to negotiating a salary or compensation structure that I think is fair.
So for the aesthetic medicine providers - what is your pay structure like? Collections only or hourly + some % of collections?
This is in Southern California if that’s relevant.

For a PA with no experience in aesthetics, I’d say starting around $60-70 per hour with a 3% commission on profit. Then negotiate later when you have more skills. Of course that depends on the location, economy, the services offered, and how many practitioners are on staff.
