✔ Learn and master the Intrinsic Buccal Massage protocol, a transformational method that lifts, sculpts, and relieves deep facial tension from the inside out
✔ Experience the treatment first-hand as Isabella Loneragan performs her signature Buccal technique on you—so you can truly understand the release, emotional depth, and structural shift it offers
✔ Practice the full method on live models, refining your precision, rhythm, and hand positioning under close, real-time mentorship
✔ Receive a detailed, printed training manual, covering the complete step-by-step protocol, anatomical insights, treatment scripting, and implementation tips
This course is suited to:
✔ Qualified skin, beauty, dermal, or massage therapists with a minimum of 1 year’s hands-on experience
✔ Graduates of Awaken The Eyes, The Skinformé Facial, or The Signature Sculpt Method—regardless of experience level—who are ready to evolve their skills with deeper, sculptural and intraoral techniques
✔ Allied health professionals—such as nurses, physiotherapists, osteopaths, and injectable practitioners—looking to integrate Buccal massage into their aesthetic and wellness offerings
Training is delivered in-person only and is strictly limited to just four therapists per intake. This ensures an intimate, immersive learning environment with direct, hands-on instruction from Isabella Loneragan herself.
The 1-Day Buccal Intensive is an advanced, specialist-level training designed exclusively for qualified professionals. To ensure the integrity and safety of the technique, applicants must have a minimum of one year of hands-on experience in a clinical or treatment-based setting. A strong working knowledge of facial anatomy is essential, as this modality involves precise, intraoral work targeting the deeper musculature and fascia of the face. This course is suited to experienced skin therapists, dermal therapists, massage therapists, or allied health professionals ready to elevate their treatment offerings with an elite, sculptural modality.
At the successful completion of The Buccal Intensive, you will be awarded the title of The Skinformé Academy Facial Modeller.

As Seen In
The Perfect Partner To Every Technique
The Dream Revival Mask isn’t just another product; it’s designed specifically to support therapeutic touch—allowing your hands to move smoothly across the skin without causing drag or friction. This is key for ensuring that each movement, whether for lifting, sculpting, or lymphatic drainage, is effortless and effective.
Its unique formulation ensures that the skin stays hydrated and nourished throughout the treatment, while still providing the perfect amount of resistance to allow for optimal massage benefits. This means that as you perform each step of the sequence, the mask supports the skin’s integrity, calms the nervous system, and enhances the overall experience for your client.

Transform Your Business with The Art Of Facial Massage™
An invitation from Isabella Loneragan, Founder of The Skinformé Academy
"Over the years, I’ve witnessed how mastering The Art Of Facial Massage™ doesn’t just elevate treatments—it transforms entire practices. In my own clinic, these hands-only techniques were the catalyst for tripling my business growth in just three years. I didn’t rely on machines, gadgets, or gimmicks. I focused on refining my craft—and that made all the difference.
This approach allowed me to deliver powerful, visible results, raise my treatment prices by over 70%, and build a fully booked schedule with a waitlist of devoted clients. But more than that, it gave me a deep sense of alignment with my work and a confidence in my hands I had never known before.
I created The Skinformé Academy with one mission: to raise the standard of our industry. To help passionate practitioners like you become exceptional at what you do—not through shortcuts, but through skill, precision, and integrity.
If you’re ready to step into a higher standard of practice, to be recognised for your craft, and to join a thriving community of ambitious professionals from across the globe—this is your moment.
Let this be the beginning of your transformation.
Because when your hands are elevated, so is your impact."
— Isabella Loneragan
