Melanoma + Melanin: Clinical Warning Signs Every Esthetician Should Recognize

This professional training session from National Black Estheticians’ Week features board-certified dermatologist Adewole (Ade) Adamson speaking directly to Estheticians about melanoma in melanin-rich skin. This is not general awareness. This is practice guidance for skincare professionals. Dr. Adamson breaks down how melanoma can present differently in darker skin tones and what Estheticians should recognize in the treatment room to support early detection, proper documentation, and timely referral. If you are a licensed Esthetician, esthetics student, or skin health educator — this session is required viewing. WHAT ESTHETICIANS WILL LEARN • Clinical red flags in melanin-rich skin • Why melanoma is often diagnosed later in Black communities • Common presentation areas (palms, soles, nails, scalp, non–sun-exposed skin) • When to refer clients to a board-certified dermatologist • Research gaps affecting skin of color • The Esthetician’s role in prevention, observation, and client advocacy This video is preserved as part of the National Black Estheticians’ Week educational archive. It references SpaSho, an early directory created to help clients locate licensed Black Estheticians. SpaSho no longer exists, but its original mission — visibility, access, and professional connection for Black Estheticians — continues through National Black Estheticians’ Week’s ongoing education and media programming. #NBEW #BlackEstheticians #estheticianeducation
