Morphology
The meaning 'a professional service to improve appearance' is directly and compositionally derived from 'beauty' (aesthetic qualities) + 'treatment' (a process or service of treating). This noun–noun combination follows a transparent, cross-linguistically common pattern (e.g. Spanish 'tratamiento de belleza'), so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
The compound noun beauty treatment comes from the simple idea of giving a careful treatment to someone's beauty; imagine a person in a salon having creams, masks or a manicure to make them look better. That's why it means a professional service to 'improve' or 'enhance' someone's appearance.
