the korean skin specialist intensive
(2-Day Programme)
A high-level, Korean-led training programme designed to build a complete, in-demand treatment menu in just two days. This intensive combines advanced Korean skin methodology with clinical treatment techniques
Course Includes
Glass Skin Facials (including ultrasonic spatula and LED Light Therapy)
Korean Contour Massage
Dermaplaning
Microneedling
Each treatment is taught with a focus on skin health, barrier-first care, and refined, results-driven delivery.
Delivered as a collaborative training experience between The Seoul Formula and Taylored For You Academy, this programme brings together Korean-led skin expertise with established clinical techniques, allowing you to confidently offer both advanced facial treatments and essential clinic services within your business.
Why This Course Is Different
Facial training is often delivered in group settings, where time and attention must be divided between multiple students. This can limit observation, correction, and deeper understanding of skin and product use.
This course is delivered on a one-to-one basis, allowing:
every stage of the facial to be closely observed
hand positioning, pressure, and technique to be corrected in real time
product selection and layering to be fully explained
treatments to be adapted to suit different skin types and conditions
Rather than following a rigid, scripted routine, you will learn how to think like a facial therapist, understanding why products are chosen and how to respond to the skin in front of you.
This level of depth is not possible in shorter, group-based courses and is designed to prepare you for real clients, not just certification.
