Meet the Team
Every course taught by an active working medic.
We don't hire career educators who learned skincare from a textbook. Every person who teaches at MSTA is working in clinic right now, and that's the reason our graduates get different results.
Kirsty Stevenson
Kirsty started Model Standards Skin Clinic on Rodney Street, Liverpool at 31. After building a reputation for clinical results that other practitioners couldn't replicate, she began teaching, and MSTA was born. She still works in clinic every week. That's deliberate.
"I teach what I actually do, not what I once did."
Over 1,000 graduates trained since 2018.
The teaching team
The educators.
Every MSTA educator is a registered healthcare professional who treats real clients. You learn from people who do this work, not people who once did.
Jemma Hesketh
Lead Clinical Skincare Educator
Registered Nurse (NMC)
A registered nurse with the NMC, Jemma brings nursing-grade clinical standards to every cohort she teaches. Nothing leaves her classroom half-understood.
Keji Sadiku
Clinical Skincare Educator
HCPC-registered Biomedical Scientist
Keji is a registered healthcare professional and HCPC-registered biomedical scientist. She teaches the science underneath the skin: what is actually happening at a cellular level, explained so it sticks.
GR
Georgia Rigby RM
Clinical Skincare Educator
Registered Midwife (NMC)
Georgia came to MSTA after a decade in NHS midwifery, trained with us, and now teaches on the educator team. She brings exceptional clinical rigour to everything she delivers.
