YOU KNOW ACNE STARTS FROM WITHIN. SO WHY DID NOBODY TEACH YOU HOW TO TREAT IT?

What you have been told vs the truth.

THE OLD STORY
  • A 4-year Naturopathy or Nutrition degree
  • Working outside your scope

Which leaves you:

  • Overwhelmed with gut, hormone and liver knowledge - 'where do I even start?'
  • Doubting yourself and referring your 'severe' acne clients away
  • Guessing at treatment plans and never quite understanding the root cause of your clients acne
AATG™
  • A clear, evidence-based framework, no 4-year degree required
  • Sit firmly within your scope of practice, confidently treating the root cause of acne with no prescribing

Which leaves you:

  • Confidence in every acne consultation as you will know exactly where to start and steps that need to be taken.
  • Leading acne treatment in your clinic, instead of referring away clients you are capable of helping.

The reality:

WHETHER YOU HAVE A DIPLOMA OR A BACHELOR OF DERMAL SCIENCES, THERE IS A CLEAR ACNE-SPECIFIC GAP IN YOUR EDUCATION.

And biased rep-led training, supplement company education and skincare brand learning sell you a product protocol, not an acne-specific Naturopathic evidence-based treatment framework.

Full transparency: your acne education gap is not your fault.

WHAT IF TREATING ACNE INTERNALLY WAS ACTUALLY SIMPLE?

Most of you reading this have sat across from a complex acne client and quietly panicked inside, overwhelmed with what next steps to take and doubting your ability to take those steps.

COULD YOU REALLY GO FROM GUESSING YOUR WAY THROUGH ACNE CONSULTATIONS, TO BEING THE GO-TO FOR ACNE IN YOUR AREA?

MY ANSWER IS: YES and AATG™ is exactly how.

I BELIEVE EVERY SKIN PROFESSIONAL DESERVES TO KNOW HOW TO TREAT THE ROOT CAUSE OF ACNE — BECAUSE SKINCARE AND MACHINES ALONE WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH.

(but deep down, you already know that)

This is for you if you are a....

–  Skin Therapist or Beauty Therapist

You know acne needs more than a facial and quality skincare but you feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start.

–  An Experienced Therapist ready to specialise

You have been in the industry for years and are now ready to tie all your knowledge into the offer you will be known for.

–  Dermal Clinician or Aesthetician

You have invested significant time in your formal education, but you are still searching for acne-specific knowledge.

–  The Therapist who wanted to become a Naturopath

You looked into it and maybe you even enrolled, but life got in the way. The passion never left.

–  The Skin Professional with acne herself

You quietly wonder how you can clear your clients acne when you have not been able to clear your own.

–  A Passionate Professional who has lost her spark

You entered this industry to make a lasting impact and are ready to fall back in love with your work.

IF ANY OF THESE SOUND LIKE YOU, AATG™ WAS BUILT FOR YOU.

INTRODUCING

ADVANCED ACNE TO G L O W®

The Naturopathic framework, taking the overwhelm out of treating acne internally, so you can confidently treat the root cause of acne, deliver evidence based results and change your clients lives.

By following my signature, evidence-based framework, you will have everything you need to identify what is driving your clients acne, confidently educate your client about their individual root cause and hand them done-for-you guides and resources. Allowing your clients to finally get the answers they have been searching for. You will become the SA Acne Specialist™ your community refers to, delivering results that change lives, long term.

ENROL IN AATG™ NOW

YOU DO NOT NEED A FOUR YEAR DEGREE TO TREAT THE ROOT CAUSE OF ACNE. THE AATG™ METHOD MAKES IT SIMPLE

01.

LEARN THE EVIDENCE BASED METHOD

Before you can identify and treat the root cause(s) of acne, you need to understand it.

In this first step, you will build a deep, evidence-based foundation regarding the internal drivers of acne: gut health, hormones, the liver, the nervous system, lymphatic clearance, and nutrition. Taught in a way that is clear, practical and built specifically for Skin Professionals.

Every lesson is designed so you can watch it, understand it and immediately see how it applies to your acne clients. This is the foundation that changes everything.

Because when you truly understand the why behind your clients acne, the how becomes simplified.

02.

IDENTIFY & TREAT THE ROOT CAUSE

This is where the AATG™ signature treatment framework comes to life in your clinic. You will learn how to take everything you now understand about the internal drivers of acne and apply it to the real acne clients sitting across from you.

Feel confident explaining to your acne clients the cause of their acne, whether it is:
A sluggish liver struggling to clear excess oestrogen?
A gut microbiome that's been disrupted by years of antibiotic usage?
Androgens spiking from hormonal dysregulation?

You will confidently know and more importantly, you will know what to do next. From there, you will build a clear, individualised treatment approach for each client, supported by done-for-you handouts, client education guides and my exact treatment plans.

Your acne clients will leave your clinic understanding exactly why their skin is breaking out. That clarity is what creates compliance. Compliance is what creates long-term results, and results are what build your reputation as the SA Acne Specialist™.

03.

BECOME THE SA CERTIFIED ACNE SPECIALIST™

This is where everything comes together, with your evidence based knowledge locked in and your Advanced Acne to g l o w® framework applied to your acne clients. Step 3 is about owning the title. Not just calling yourself an SA Acne Specialist™ but having the results, confidence, certificate and the reputation to back it up.

You will receive your Advanced Acne to g l o w® Certificate of Completion, an International credential that represents something far more than a course finish line. It represents a genuine shift in how you practise, present yourself and how your acne clients experience your care.

Something shifts in how you show up, because you are no longer hoping you can understand and help your acne clients. You know you can. You will have the confidence to charge what your expertise is worth, to market yourself as the SA Certified Acne Specialist™ without imposter syndrome and to build a reputation in your area or online, from anywhere in the world as the practitioner who finally had the answers.

You started in the industry to change skin and change lives. Step 3 is where that actually happens.

“Every skin professional has what it takes to treat the root cause of acne. Most were never taught how.... until now.

— Hayley Barnes

I HAVE HEARD EVERY HESITATION,
DOUBT AND REASON TO WAIT....

Is this outside my scope of practice?

I don't have time - I'll do it next year when things calm down.

Too expensive for me and I cannot afford it right now

I'm scared I'll get it wrong and send a client down the wrong track

I don't feel credible enough to call myself an SA Acne Specialist™

I don’t have time to study, on top of running my business

I have already spent too much on courses

I HEAR YOU AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF
THESE HESITATIONS ARE VALID. BUT THEY ARE NOT THE REAL PROBLEM. THEY ARE THE STORIES OF AN OUTDATED ACNE EDUCATION MODEL

I HEAR YOU AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF
THESE HESITATIONS ARE VALID. BUT THEY ARE NOT THE REAL PROBLEM. THEY ARE THE STORIES OF AN OUTDATED ACNE EDUCATION MODEL

(or the complete lack of it).

"Is this outside my scope of practice?"

The most common question I get and the most important. The short answer: No. AATG® was designed to sit firmly within your scope and it shows you exactly where that scope sits, so you never have to guess.

You already advise clients every day on skincare routines, ingredients, lifestyle factors and product choices. Discussing nutrition, hydration and the root causes of acne as they relate to skin health is an extension of that, not a departure from it.

AATG™ does not teach you to prescribe, diagnose medical conditions, or replace a GP, Dermatologist or Naturopath. It teaches you what every great skin professional should know: how internal health connects to the external skin and when to refer confidently, not out of fear or self-doubt.

Scope is addressed directly inside the course. You will finish AATG® knowing:

  • Exactly what you can discuss, recommend and advise on as a skin professional
  • How to explain the internal root causes of acne to clients clearly, within your role
  • When and how to refer to a Naturopath or GP - without losing your client

The fear of stepping outside your scope comes from a lack of clear information, not from the work itself. Knowledge does not push you outside your scope. It shows you exactly where it is and gives you the confidence to work right up to it.

"I don't have time - I'll do it next year when things calm down."

Things don't calm down. Next year you will be in the same position, with the same acne clients, and the same feeling that something is missing. The therapists who enrolled last year are the ones with the results and the go-to SA Acne Specialist™ reputation.

I will be honest with you, as a solo business owner myself, I wear every hat in my business too. There is little 'spare time' in my week and I know there is next to none in yours. But I have learned this: when you know the ROI, for your health, your client’s transformation and for the growth of your business, you don't find the time, you make it.

This is what ‘no time’ actually looks like inside AATG™: two hours a week. The full course is 10 hours of video content - allow around 24 hours total across 3 months to take notes, ask questions and let the knowledge sink in with your real acne clients. Every lesson is clear, digestible and immediately applicable in clinic - no dense theory for theory's sake.

It's completely self-paced with lifetime access, built around the reality of a working skin professional, not a full-time student. Miss a week? Nothing expires. Life gets busy? Pick it up exactly where you left off. Waiting for a quieter season is not the safe option, it's just 12 more months of guessing.

"Too expensive for me and I cannot afford it right now"

If AATG™ feels expensive, look closer at what you are actually investing in. This isn't a course fee, it's the ability to identify and treat the root cause of the single biggest skin concern clients bring to you.

Acne affects 1 in 5 people worldwide (Saurat et al., JAAD, 2024) and up to 85% of young people at some point (Bhate & Williams, 2013) and global studies show it's still rising (Br J Dermatol, 2024). Acne remains the most prevalent skin condition on the planet.

Acne clients are not bargain hunters: they have usually tried everything, which makes them the clients most willing to invest in quality treatment that finally works. That's why AATG® grows: your business, confidence and your ability to deliver the results that turn one acne client into quality referrals. Every result compounds. That's your ROI.

AATG™ is a one-time investment, not a subscription: you get lifetime access to the course, including every future update and unlimited access to professional support. No 3, 6 or 12-month cut-off. If cash flow is the real concern, the payment plan splits your enrolment into six monthly payments, so your first acne clients can be covering the investment,  before you have completed the course.

"I'm scared I'll get it wrong and send a client down the wrong track"

That fear tells me something important about you: you take your clients' results seriously. That's exactly the kind of professional this course was built for. But here is the truth, right now, without AATG™, you are already at greater risk of getting it wrong. Guessing at products, treating surface-level, missing the internal drivers entirely. The wrong track is not a risk waiting inside AATG™. It's a risk you are already taking without this training. 

Inside AATG™, you never work from memory or gut feeling. You follow clear, step-by-step frameworks for assessing every client, so instead of asking yourself 'what do I think is going on?' you work through the modules (framework) and understand 'what does the framework show me?' That's the difference between guessing and evaluating.

You are never doing it alone. You get unlimited access to professional support and personalised feedback, so when a complex client walks in and you want a second opinion before you act, you have somewhere to take it. Real questions, real cases, answered.

You will also learn exactly when a client does need a GP, Dermatologist, Acne Naturopath and how to refer with confidence. Knowing your limits isn't a weakness of the method. It's built into it. You can't send a client down the wrong track when you know how to read the map.

HI, I AM HAYLEY,

Acne Client turned Expert Acne Naturopath, Educator and Founder of the Skincare Academy.

I struggled with cystic acne for ten years. Every product. Every facial. Every pharmaceutical. Every supplement and machine-led treatment on the market. Some worked for a month. Nothing worked long-term.

And the whole time, my gut, immune system, nervous system and my confidence was paying the price. The longer it went on, the more I suspected the answer wasn't my skin at all. That suspicion became an obsession. The obsession became two Clinical Science degrees.

Somewhere in the middle of studying Naturopathic Medicine, I found it, not in a skincare range, not in a treatment room but in the science of what was happening inside my body.

I graduated. I cleared my skin. In 2018, I opened Australia's first online Naturopathic Acne Clinic and spent years treating the root cause of women's acne internationally.

Then I started hearing from the Skin Therapists sitting across from those clients. Skin Professionals who knew acne was deeper than the surface but had no evidence based clinical framework to back that up.

So in 2021, I built the clinical acne framework that no Diploma or Dermal Science degree has ever taught: Advanced Acne to g l o w®.

THAT'S WHEN EVERYTHING CHANGED,

But I won't pretend it was easy.

I was working two jobs while studying full time. I had severe acne, gut health issues and anxiety. In fact, at my first Naturopathy degree clinic, I was the student with the worst acne in the room. I felt like a complete fraud. A Hypocrite standing in a clinic trying to help people with the exact thing I couldn't fix in myself! But I knew I had to help people in a bigger way, which is why this work became bigger than me and my own insecurities. Full time uni, working two part time jobs.

I kept going.

I graduated from my second Naturopathy degree and my skin cleared. My health started to change in ways I never knew possible. I always knew I needed to do this for me but mostly for all acne sufferers struggling for answers like I was.

I started my own business, completely from scratch. No team. No support. Just me, wearing every single hat, figuring it out as I went.

I understand solo practitioner life because I live it. The late nights, admin, business development, client work, marketing: all of it. I still have doubts about being on camera. Every. Single. Time. But I put myself out there anyway; because I believe in what I was building and I knew the acne industry needed a massive upgrade, even if I felt uncomfortable.

What I didn't expect was what happened next.

I actually never went looking for a niche education platform. The niche found me. 

Slowly, then all at once, acne became everything and I let it. I stopped trying to be everything to everyone and went all in on the one thing I was most passionate about. 

I never imagined I would build the largest acne-only Naturopathic education platform. I never planned for international students, for 40+ certified specialists, for a framework that is now changing how the Skin and Beauty industry treats acne globally. 

But here we are. 

Fast forward to today and I would not change a single uncomfortable, cringe-worthy, two-jobs-while-studying moment of it. 

Because every single one of those moments is why AATG™ exists and why it works. 

I'M PROOF YOU CAN BUILD A THRIVING ACNE SPECIALITY.

And now I am here to help you do the same, because knowledge needed to update an entire industry, should never be gatekept. 

Your career is too short to keep treating acne at the surface and referring away clients you could have helped, simply because no one has provided the framework to go deeper. 

The guessing. The overwhelm. Sending someone home with another product and hoping. 

You have always known there is a better way. 

There is.

YOU ARE HERE TO HELP PEOPLE.

So why do your acne clients still leave without results?

RIGHT NOW

— You know acne must be treated from the inside out. Nobody ever taught you how, so you do not know where to begin. 

— A ‘complex’ acne client sits in front of you. Is it gut? Hormones? Liver? Histamine? You are guessing. 

— You are scared to advise beyond the surface, so you play it safe with retail supplements that change nothing. 

— Every course you have bought was either too shallow or pitched at Naturopathy graduates. Nothing in between. 

— Deep down you question whether you are good enough to help acne clients at all. That feeling is exhausting. 

— You want to specialise. You want one thing you are truly excellent at. But you do not have the tools yet. 

AFTER AATG™

— You walk into every acne consultation knowing exactly where to start, with a clear roadmap for every client. 

— You identify the root cause using the AATG™ framework and treat it directly. No more guessing. 

— You know exactly where your scope sits, prescribe with purpose and refer only when it is genuinely needed. 

— You finally have a framework built for skin professionals. Practical, evidence based, in your scope and yours for life. 

— You have become the therapist you always knew you could be. Confident, skilled, changing skin and changing lives. 

— You have the one thing you are known for. The speciality that sets you apart from every clinic near you.

Acne specialisation is one of the few niches where your income is limited by your reputation not by the hours you can physically work. Trying to know everything about everything is exhausting. Mastering one condition, the biggest skin condition in the industry, is how you become irreplaceable.

"I have been in the skincare industry since 1991. I was also impressed by how practical and clinically relevant the education was. Rather than simply presenting theory, it provided actionable strategies that could be implemented immediately in clinic. It connected many concepts I had encountered throughout my career and gave me a framework to apply them with greater confidence... I am seeing improved outcomes not simply because we are treating the skin, but because we are considering the broader factors that influence health, inflammation, resilience and healing."

SCARRING TO G L O W™

Your clients have done the work, you have identified and treated the root cause of your clients acne, completely transforming their skin. But now when your clients look in the mirror they do not see active acne, they see the scarring left behind. A constant reminder of years of struggle and self doubt. 

This is the course your acne clients need you to take next. The world's first Naturopathic comprehensive acne scarring course, supporting the body's ability to regenerate new skin cells using food as medicine, Herbal Medicine and Naturopathic knowledge, from the inside out and outside in. 

You are not what you eat. You are what you absorb. 

No collagen powder, supplement or skin treatment can heal acne scarring if the gut cannot break down and absorb the protein that rebuilds skin. Healing starts with digestion, not the dermis. 

First Naturopathic Acne scarring course - built specifically for what comes after clear skin. 

Highly requested by AATG™ graduates whose clients now live without active acne
✓ Addresses every area of the body where acne scarring can be present
Herbal Medicine and Naturopathic treatment plans to support skin cell regeneration
✓ Treats scarring from the inside out and outside in
✓ The natural next step after treating the root cause to complete the journey

ACNE FLASHCARD

PROGRAM™

Your client cannot visually see her gut, liver or what her hormones are doing. She can only see her skin, which is exactly why explaining what is actually driving her acne is so hard. 

The Acne Flashcard Program™ makes the internal visible. Print, laminate and put them to work in your very next consultation. A quick-reference companion covering every internal root cause of acne, so you move through client appointments with confidence, clarity and zero second-guessing. 

Your clients do not take action on what they do not understand.

10 Mini Training lessons - step by step lessons teaching you exactly how to explain each internal root cause of acne for your clients. 

10 Acne flashcards - Print and laminate them for your treatment room. A visual tactile tool your clients can see, hold and understand.

HRT/PERIMENOPAUSE & ACNE MASTERCLASS

TOTAL VALUE: $197

Your mature-age clients are doing everything right: eating well, managing stress, using good skincare but their acne is getting worse. They are embarrassed and honestly thought acne was behind them and they have no idea why it's back. You need to be the one who can tell them why. 

This is my step-by-step method for treating acne clients with erratic, declining hormones, including exactly how perimenopause triggers breakouts, the specific nutrients and foods to recommend for healthy oestrogen decline and natural, effective alternatives to HRT that actually support clear skin, long term. 

TEENAGE ACNE MASTERCLASS

TOTAL VALUE: $197

Teenage acne is one of the most commonly mismanaged conditions in clinics and the default to the oral contraceptive pill or antibiotics is not treating the cause. This masterclass gives you the clinical knowledge and confidence to offer your teenage clients evidence based treatment, addressing the root cause(s). It's not all about their hormones either. 

Inside: the key differences between male and female teenage acne, the genetic component of acne explained, how to clearly communicate why the oral contraceptive pill does not treat acne and simple yet effective Nutrition and Herbal Medicine strategies to add to your treatment plan. Addressing the root cause, because teenagers deserve more than a prescription that masks the internal cause of their acne into adulthood.

The ultimate 'done for you' resource to send to your acne clients. Allowing you to stand out as the Skincare Academy Acne Specialist™.

Because telling your clients to "remove dairy, refined sugar and gluten" isn't a treatment plan. 

As you work through AATG™ and identify each client's nutritional deficiencies, you will know exactly which recipes to recommend and how to individualise them. No more vague dietary advice. Just clear, practical, scope-appropriate guidance that makes treating the root cause of acne with nutrition as straightforward as it should be.

I have learnt so much and I am able to guide my acne clients better than ever. Hayley has been really helpful, especially with the phone call when I first joined to walk me through everything and answer any of my questions. Thank you Hayley."

IMAGINE THIS -

90 days from now

→ An acne client sits down in front of you. You ask the right questions, you identify the root cause, and you know exactly what to do. No panic. No guessing. No referring them away, because you don’t know where to start.

→ Your acne clients are coming back with clear skin and telling everyone! Your before-and-afters are doing the marketing for you. No ads. No discounts or sales. Just results that speak louder than anything you could post.

→ You finish a consultation and feel genuinely proud of your work. Not because you sold a product or booked another facial but because you actually treated the root cause of your clients acne. You gave that client something no one else could... Results and answers.

→ Your clients stop disappearing to the GP or Dermatologist for a prescription that does not work. They stop looking for a quick fix. They trust you. Because you give your clients an explanation that finally made sense and a path that actually gets them results.

→ You feel credible and more than capable calling yourself an Acne Specialist™ because you have the knowledge, the framework, and the results to back it up. That confidence changes everything. How you consult. How you present yourself. How you charge.

→ 90 days. That’s all it takes to completely change the way you treat acne, the results you get, and the professional you become. This knowledge compounds. Every client, every result, every referral that follows, that’s your ROI.

AND THIS CAN BE YOUR INBOX......

TREATING THE ROOT CAUSE OF ACNE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE OVERWHELMING 

It's about closing one specific knowledge gap: holistic acne treatment. Not a Naturopathy degree, just the education this industry should have given you from the very beginning. 

You would NOT send a surgeon into theatre without the right post-graduate training. So why are Skin Professionals expected to confidently treat the number one skin concern walking through their door, without the acne-specific education to do it properly? 

"It genuinely pisses me off that so many passionate, dedicated skin professionals. Many who entered this industry because of their own acne struggles, give everything to their clients and this industry, yet were never shown how to treat the real root cause(s) of acne. Skincare and treatments can only go so far... and until you have the clinical knowledge to go deeper, you will keep hitting the same ceiling, doubting your abilities, no matter how talented or committed you are." - Hayley Barnes
