Inside the masterclass

Three layers. One completely different way of seeing skin.

01

The Epidermis

THE SURFACE YOU SEE

What’s really going on at the surface, and why it’s where so many treatment plans start and stop.

02

The Dermis

WHERE RESULTS ARE MADE

The layer behind collagen, elasticity and so many of the concerns your clients walk in with.

03

The Hypodermis

THE FOUNDATION

The deepest layer, and why it matters to your treatment choices more than most training ever explains.

Why this matters

Your training taught you the treatments. This teaches you the skin.

Most of us were handed a protocol and told to get on with it, without anyone ever properly explaining what's actually happening underneath. Once you understand the layers, your consultations change, your treatment plans make sense, and your clients can see the difference.

“When you understand what's happening beneath the surface, you stop guessing and start getting results.”

This is for you if

Already trained? Perfect.

You’re an aesthetic practitioner, beauty therapist or skin specialist

You know how to do the treatment but want to understand the skin behind it

You want to feel confident recommending a plan, not just a product

You’re newly qualified or years in; it genuinely doesn’t matter
