Acne treatment training: what two focused days actually cover
Acne Treatment Pro at ANNAZUR runs two days and ten hours for licensed estheticians — current price is on the course page. The time goes into assessing cases from mild to complex, selecting a protocol, and planning a case over months — with supervised practice on live models.
Acne is the case most estheticians lose confidence on, because it is the one where doing more makes things worse. The skill is not a stronger protocol. It is reading the case and knowing what to withhold.
Why acne is different from every other case
Most facial work rewards doing the thing well. Acne punishes doing too much of it. A barrier that is already compromised does not need another acid, and an inflamed face does not need deeper extraction — it needs a plan that spans months and a client who understands why this week looks like restraint.
That is why acne rarely follows one script, and why a course on it is mostly about judgment.
What the two days cover
The course works through assessment first: reading a case from mild to complex, and separating what is inflammatory from what is congestion, scarring or a damaged barrier. Then protocol selection — which approach fits this face now, and what the next three appointments look like.
You also get access to the ANNAZUR treatment protocols and a Certificate of Completion.
Practice on real faces
The course includes supervised hands-on practice with live models inside the working spa. That matters more here than elsewhere: photographs flatten exactly the texture and inflammation you need to learn to read, and a model with genuine active acne is not something a classroom can simulate.
Who it is for
Acne Treatment Pro is designed for licensed estheticians. It assumes you already perform facials and have met enough acne clients to know where you hesitate.
If you are not licensed yet, this is not the place to start — Florida requires 220 hours at a licensed cosmetology school before you may work on clients at all. We will say so at consultation rather than take the booking.
What it costs and how to decide
Two days, ten hours; the current price is on the course page. Before anyone enrolls we confirm prerequisites, professional scope, course fit and the model arrangements, and that conversation is free.
The useful question at that consultation is not “what will I learn” but “which case did I get wrong last month”. If the answer is an acne case, this is the course. If it is something else, we will point you at something else.

The short version.
- Two days: ten hours, with the price on the course page.
- Judgment, not protocol: assessment, protocol selection and planning a case across months.
- Live models: supervised practice on real active acne inside the working spa.
- Licensed only: designed for estheticians who already practice.
- Certificate: a Certificate of Completion and access to our protocols — not a license.
