Fuelled by Passion, Secured by Understanding: The Skin Specialist’s Journey
In my 30 years of experience, I've seen that many enter this field enthusiastically but feel their education doesn't fully prepare them for safe and confident practice. Often, skin specialists receive information without enough time to connect theory with practice. The Skin-Deep Academy addresses this by offering comprehensive education that fosters critical thinking and specialist-level understanding beyond standard protocols.
Developing Confidence Through Informed Practice
Skin isn’t ‘easy’ – when education is condensed skin specialists are exposed to poor outcomes, damaged confidence and uncertainty in their decision making.
Skin Deep Academy provides a resource to not just answer these questions but help you apply this knowledge effectively.
It’s where you learn why treatments work, how to explain them to clients, and how to practise with authority.
Test Your Understanding - Skin Analysis
If the clinical protocol in this module feels unfamiliar, it’s a sign that the industry’s shortcuts left gaps in your education — not a reflection of your capability. If it excites you, you’ve found your home.

Build Authority That Keeps Clients Coming Back
“I’m often asked how I’ve kept clients for over a decade without spending a penny on ads. It’s simple: clients stay when expectations are exceeded, explained with authority, understanding, and education.
If you can’t explain the ‘why’ to your client, you aren’t an authority. You’re just a technician. The SkinDeep Academy is where we change that.
At the heart of the academy’s approach is a commitment to deep learning. ”
FAQ
-
Being qualified doesn’t always mean you were given the depth of clinical theory that used to be standard across the industry. Changes in legislation and training models have shortened education pathways, often leaving gaps in understanding rather than ability.
This academy exists to restore that foundational knowledge, so practitioners can make confident clinical decisions and explain them clearly — not simply follow protocols.
-
The Academy is self-paced, allowing you to engage with the material alongside clinical work rather than around fixed schedules. Modules are structured to be taken in focused sessions, but meaningful benefit comes from reflection and application — not speed.
This is not designed to be rushed. Practitioners typically engage in short sessions and return to modules as their clinical questions evolve.
-
No. The Academy is clinically led, with business education taught through the lens of professional practice rather than marketing tactics.
Business-focused sessions explore how clinical standards, decision-making, and clear client communication support a sustainable clinic — including how Jody plans and evaluates her own practice. There are no scripts, shortcuts, or growth “hacks”. The emphasis is on thinking, not tactics.
-
Live webinars are structured teaching sessions led by Jody, each focused on a specific clinical or business topic. She shares how she approaches decision-making, planning, and problem-solving in her own practice.
Questions at the end of each session are there to deepen understanding of the subject being discussed. The intention is to support practitioners in developing their own clinical reasoning, rather than relying on individual case-by-case advice.
-
Yes. Membership can be cancelled at any time, and you will not be charged for future renewals. The Academy is designed for practitioners who choose to engage over time, but there is no obligation to continue if it no longer feels appropriate.
