ACNE RESET
My 6-step foundational framework to reset your habits for clearer skin and a more confident you.
Right now, I know you’ve tried…
Every cream, cleanser and spot treatment under the sun.
Maybe you've done multiple rounds of antibiotics.
Gone on the pill, and off again, hoping this time it would finally fix it.
You've cut dairy, sugar, gluten… tried supplements you saw on TikTok.
You’ve likely spent hours Googling “best skincare routine for acne” and still feel more confused than ever.
And yet, nothing seems to truly work.

Who is FSA for?
The Functional Skin Academy is designed specifically for skin professionals who want to elevate their client results and grow a more sustainable, aligned business by integrating functional health principles into their skin consultations. It’s for the practitioner who knows that acne isn’t just skin deep, and is ready to confidently assess internal imbalances like hormones, digestion, liver health, and lifestyle patterns, so they can create long-lasting transformations for their clients.
More specifically, it’s for practitioners who:
✅ Are currently offering skin treatments but know they need to go deeper to support chronic skin conditions like acne
✅ Feel frustrated when clients don’t get results despite doing “everything right”
✅ Have dabbled in advising on inner health but want a clear framework to assess and create effective protocols confidently
✅ Want to move beyond ‘trial and error’ and start using client symptoms patterns to drive targeted support
✅ Are tired of working hour-for-hour in clinic, and want to explore hybrid or online offerings like programs or in-clinic packages to scale your income
✅ Want to feel more confident in their recommendations, whether it’s gut healing, skin nutrition or supplement protocols
What You'll Gain:
✅ Learn how to carry out a functional health assessment
✅ Confidently build protocols that combine nutrition, lifestyle, mindset and more
✅ Learn how to support PCOS clients, post-pill acne, stress-driven flare-ups, gut-skin imbalances and more
✅ Understand how to assess the whole person, not just the skin condition
✅ And grow your confidence and clarity as a practitioner, so you stop second-guessing and start stepping into your expert role.
✅ How to build an in-clinic programme or online programme - you will have the options to grow your business in which ever way fits your future vision.
Inside The Functional Skin Academy,
you’ll get instant access to:
✅ Weekly live group mentorship calls rotating between:
- Masterclasses on different health and skin related topics
- Live case study calls (where you can bring any clients you may be struggling to get results with and I can help you help them)
- Hot seat coaching calls for live Q&A - perfect for business mapping and mindset support
- We’ll be joined by Guest Experts including a Mindset coach to help you work through any business blocks you may have
✅ Access to a consistently growing educational portal with modules including my 8-step clear skin blueprint:
- Mindset & Nervous System
- Nutrition
- Blood Sugar
- Digestive Function
- Gut Health
- Liver Support
- Supplementation
- Client communication and boundary setting
✅ You’ll also be a part of a private community of likeminded practitioners to share wins, ask questions, and get support every step of the way
✅ Templates, checklists, intake forms, and client protocols ready for you to copy and use in your own business so you can start implementing the information straight away

Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1: Do I learn how to analyse blood work?
No – the Functional Skin Academy does not currently teach blood work analysis. Our focus is on giving you the tools and knowledge to assess clients through symptoms, case history, and foundational health principles.
Question 2: How often are the intakes?
We open enrolment every 2–4 months, depending on the time of year. Follow us on Instagram to keep up-to-date with our intake dates.
Question 3: Does this come with an official qualification?
No – the Functional Skin Academy is not an accredited course and does not provide an official qualification or certificate. It is designed as a professional development programme to deepen your knowledge of functional skin health so you can integrate these skills into your existing services and get better results for your clients. Many practitioners use this training to enhance their expertise, stand out in the industry, and confidently offer more holistic acne support alongside their current qualifications.

The programme is designed for qualified skin practitioners who want to expand their knowledge and offer root-cause acne support. You must hold at least a Level 2 qualification in facial and skincare treatments and have been practising for a minimum of 12 months. This ensures you already have a solid understanding of skin health and client care before moving into the more advanced, functional approach taught inside the Academy.
Question 5: Do you have in-person events?
Yes – we believe the community inside the Functional Skin Academy is a huge part of the learning experience. To celebrate this, we host an annual in-person meet-up where members can connect, share experiences, and continue learning together.
Question 6: What happens after the 6 months?
You can continue confidently on your own, or, if you’d like ongoing support and access to the community, you can stay on at a reduced monthly fee.
Question 7: Do you offer payment plans?
Yes – you can spread the cost with Klarna, which allows you to split the payment into three instalments.
