Course overview

What is the Acne Masterclass?

The Acne Masterclass focuses on the clinical understanding and management of acne, for practitioners working with clients who have active acne or post-acne concerns. Over two intensive days you go beyond surface-level treatments and learn to clear acne safely and effectively.

Most acne courses focus only on products or treatments. This masterclass shows you how to combine in-clinic treatments, internal support and lifestyle factors into one clear, professional strategy. You learn how to:

  • Identify root causes, not just symptoms
  • Understand acne as a systemic and inflammatory condition
  • Know when to treat, when to pause and when to refer
  • Stop making acne worse with the wrong advice or protocols

Who it is for

Who the Acne Masterclass is for

This is not a basic skincare course. It is a deep-dive acne education designed to raise your standard of practice. If you are just starting out, begin with the 5 Day Beginner Course. The masterclass is ideal for:

  • Skin therapists and skin specialists already treating clients
  • Professionals struggling with stubborn, recurring acne cases
  • Therapists who feel unsure about extractions, peels or treatment timing
  • Practitioners who want to understand acne internally as well as externally
  • Anyone tired of guessing and ready for clarity and confidence

What you'll learn

What you learn over two intensive days

Five modules cover acne from skin science to a step-by-step clearing plan.

  • Acne theory & skin science

    Types and grades of acne, inflammatory vs non-inflammatory acne, hormonal, bacterial and systemic triggers, acne in teens vs adults, and the acne cycle and barrier dysfunction.

  • Advanced acne consultations

    Taking a thorough acne history, asking the right questions, identifying internal red flags, lifestyle, diet, stress and gut links, and when blood work is appropriate.

  • Treatments & in-clinic protocols

    Safe acne treatments, correct extraction technique (and when not to extract), peels for acne, congestion vs inflammation, and avoiding over-treatment.

  • Internal acne triggers

    Food intolerances, supplements that help or harm, acne-triggering vitamins, common acne medication and supporting clients alongside GP or dermatologist care.

  • Acne treatment planning

    Clear step-by-step plans, short-term calming vs long-term clearing, supportive homecare, adjusting plans as the skin changes and setting realistic expectations.

Harry is simply incredible at what he does. I cried when I first met him due to the state of my skin and I’d tried everything on the market including prescriptions from the dr and nothing ever worked, in just 4 facials and some home care he completely transformed my skin and I cannot thank him enough. He is so professional and knows exactly what he’s talking about, he’s also a friend that you can rant to if needed! I will never not recommend Harry and I will always be a customer of his!

I had the privilege of participating as a model for one of Harry’s training sessions. The training was delivered discreetly and professionally without any impact on the whole experience or outcome. Beautiful surroundings, and a fabulous experience all round.

I met and have been seeing Harry for over 2 years now, and I will never look back! I sing his name from the rooftops as he is the only person I trust with me skin. I have struggled since a teenager with problematic skin, acne and texture - and I leave every time so so happy with visible results! He often will change the treatment to do exactly what my skin needs on the day, and alongside my at home skin care my skin has never been this good. And on top of that - every treatment he offers is the most incredible relaxing experience - better than any spa I’ve been to including champneys!! I leave feeling so so relaxed and pampered every time. Love you Harry!!!

I recently completed a skin training course with Harry Morley, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. I learnt so much throughout the course, and the way everything was explained made it easy to understand and apply in practice. Harry is a fantastic trainer, not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also great fun to learn from. He creates a relaxed and supportive environment, which really helps build confidence. He is patient, approachable, and always willing to answer questions, no matter how big or small. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to develop their skills in skin treatments or start as a complete beginner like me. It was truly a valuable and enjoyable learning experience and he still helps me know with ongoing support. Thank you Harry

I can’t recommend Harry highly enough. He has completely transformed my skin, I’ve never experienced the level of care, attention to detail, and time he gives to each appointment anywhere else. He is truly the nicest guy, dedicated to his work and genuinely committed to his clients goals. His treatment room is set in the most tranquil, calming environment, which instantly puts you at ease. The added little extras he includes in the experience make every visit feel that bit more special and thoughtful. Thankyou Harry!

I trained with Harry to bring the Japanese head spa to my treatment list and can honestly say it was one of the best courses I’ve been on. Him and Michelle couldn’t do enough for me to make sure I was okay, needed anything going over again and made me aware where I was going right and how I could also improve. I’m super excited to offer this experience to my clients as it’s definitely going to be a different one! Thank you again ❤️

I recently completed a 2 day Japanese Head Spa Training Course with Harry. It was absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend to anyone looking to offer this treatment. What really set it apart was the emphasis on other areas to enhance my current facial offering. The training isn’t just about the head spa, but the whole experience for clients which will help anyone that learns from Harry to set yourself apart from others. I learnt lots of new techniques that have really improved my other treatments too! The days were long and in depth, which is what’s required to feel confident and I left the training feeling ready to go in my own clinic. The fact that Harry sources the models and provides a lot over the 2 days is also fantastic. I have to also mention the amazing kit Harry provides with all the tools you need to get started, fabulous!! The breakfast provided and lunch in the tea room was also just so lovely and made the whole experience such a treat. I’m so happy I decided to learn from Harry. I’ve had so much amazing feedback from my clients so far and that’s down to Harry’s teaching. Thanks so much Harry! 🙂

I have recently finished my Facial training with Harry which was amazing! I’m so glad I decided to train with him!. His attention to detail is incredible we learnt not only how to deliver a high standard relaxing facial but also how to help clients transform their skin!. We had plenty of models to practice on that I now feel confident to deliver treatments myself. We were also lucky enough to be introduced to Danielle Smith at ThinkCre8tive who is helping us bring our vision for our business to life. Harry is an excellent teacher who made me feel supported and confident along side Michelle who was also an amazing support. his course really is the full package!. I can’t thank them enough for helping me start my journey into my dream career. 🫶 Xx

I had the most incredible experience with Harry at his Japanese head spa. From the moment I arrived, the vibe was immaculate—his space is beautifully calming, with soothing scents that instantly relaxed me. Harry's welcoming and tranquil demeanor set the perfect tone for the experience. The session began with a delightful foot spa and a glass of prosecco, and from there, it only got better. As I laid down, the relaxing aromas and perfectly fitting music transported me to another level of calm. Harry's expert hands worked magic on my head, neck, face, arms, and feet. The two hours felt like pure, uninterrupted bliss. It was hands down the best pampering I’ve ever had. Highly recommend! Xxxxx

I have been going to Harry for many years now I wouldn't go to anyone else. My skin always feels refreshed and is always glowing. I am always getting compliments about my skin and that is all down to Harry. From the minute you walk in you will feel at ease and pampered. Harry is the best in the business and his knowledge is the next level. If anyone is thinking about having a little pamper you really need to get booked in you will not be disappointed and i can guarantee you will be booking in for another treatment. Thank you Harry xx
