Fully capable.
Not fully booked.

Strong technique, but gaps in the week. The problem is not your hands, it is the commercial structure around them.

Written for the practitioner working on her own. One room, one pair of hands, every dollar earned by the person reading this. If you run a clinic with staff, this is not your page.

Sixty seconds from Isabella Loneragan

Before you read any further

I built this page for one particular person. The facialist whose hands are already good, who is doing everything she was told to do, and who still cannot work out why the diary will not hold. If that is you, this will make sense quickly.

Who is teaching this

"Every week I meet practitioners who are technically excellent and commercially invisible. That gap is fixable, and it is not fixed with another certificate."

Isabella Loneragan is the founder of The Skinformé Academy and the creator of The Intrinsic Facial®. She was the first to bring Buccal massage and Sculptural Lifting to Australia after training in Paris, and she runs Skinformé clinics in Sydney and Bowral. When she looks at your business in a strategy session she is not theorising. She has built and run treatment businesses of her own for nearly two decades.

Before you decide

The questions we get asked most

If your question is not here, a course advisor will answer it on a free thirty minute call. Book a call with our course advisor.

Yes. Isabella Loneragan conducts every session personally. That is why availability is limited and why the intake form is required. She reads your answers before the call, so none of the thirty minutes is spent getting up to speed.
No. It is a diagnostic. Isabella Loneragan looks at where your business actually is and tells you what she sees. If a further course is the right next step for you, she will say so. If it is not, she will say that too. There is no obligation either way.
Most practitioners lose less than they fear and gain more than they expect. The framework covers how to make the transition without losing your base, including what to say to an existing client when she books at the new price.
The two free things on this page are short. The video training is forty five minutes and you can watch it in parts. The Signature Offer framework takes about twenty minutes to run against your own numbers. Nothing else is asked of you. If you later choose the Accelerator, the Awaken the Eyes course is self paced and your session with Isabella Loneragan is thirty minutes.

For the sole trader facialist. One thing to do next.

Start with the forty five minutes
