About Helen McGuinness

I have amassed over 35 years experience in the beauty / skin care industry as a practitioner, educator and author. Helping clients to improve their skin condition continues to be a lifetime passion of mine to this day.

I am probably best known for my work as an educator over the past 30 years through my highly respected training academy helenmcguinness.com, as I have trained literally thousands of therapists both nationally throughout the UK as well as internationally in Asia and America. Many of my students now run their own successful salons and clinics in this country and abroad. I am is also the well- known author of the highly successful ‘Anatomy & Physiology’ book and workbook, published by Hodder & Stoughton, which, originally published in the 90’s, is now in its 5th Edition.

Although highly experienced, professional and knowledgeable, I am always very approachable and clients love my down to earth, honest and comprehensive approach.

Despite being very busy with my training commitments over the past 30 years, I have always ensured that I have kept my hands-on skills current, and I am continually committed to my own professional development to ensure that my clients receive only the best and most up to date methods with their treatments. To this end, I am very proud to be one of the very first Aesthetic Practitioners in the UK to achieve the accolade of the Gold Standard for Injectable Qualifications of a Qualifi Level 5 and Level 7 in Aesthetic Practice, which is an Ofqual regulated qualification and the first of its kind for both medics and non-medics.

I look forward to meeting you and to helping you achieve the best for yourself.
