Kobido Training — Japanese Lifting

Kobido is one of the most in-demand and best-valued facial treatments on the market. Mastering it means enriching your treatment menu with a true signature.

Why train in Kobido?

Kobido, or the “Japanese lifting”, is experiencing growing popularity. More and more clients are looking for a natural alternative to injections, and Kobido answers that demand perfectly. For an esthetician, it is a high-value treatment: premium, differentiating and loyalty-building. Adding it to your menu positions you in a fast-growing, well-paid segment.

Demand for Kobido training is growing faster than supply: few practitioners truly master the technique. It is an opportunity to specialise in a still under-served niche.

The course programme

Our training conveys the entire Kobido protocol, from fundamentals to gestural mastery:

• History, principles and benefits of Kobido
• Facial anatomy: muscles, tension lines, key points
• The core manoeuvres: smoothing, percussion, kneading
• The complete lifting protocol sequence
• Rhythm, posture and practitioner ergonomics
• Adapting to skin types and individual needs
• Adding the treatment to your menu & sales pitch

By the end, you are able to perform a complete, professional Kobido treatment and offer it independently in your treatment room.

Format: online, distance or in-person

The training is available as e-learning (video modules to follow at your own pace, anywhere), as distance training with guidance, or in-person at our Academy in Paris (Neuilly-sur-Seine) for guided practice. This flexibility lets you train while keeping your professional activity.

Certification & support

The training leads to an Anaj certificate of completion, attesting to the skills acquired. Our trainers support you during and after the course. The goal: that you leave not only with a technique, but with the confidence to offer it.

Career outlook & profitability

Kobido is priced as a premium treatment: adding it can significantly raise your average basket and your studio's footfall. It is also an excellent entry product to attract clients seeking natural anti-ageing care. The training quickly pays for itself from the first treatments offered.

Train with Anaj Academy

In Paris (Neuilly-sur-Seine), Anaj Academy shares its expertise within a skin-longevity approach. Our courses combine technical rigour, attention to detail and a holistic vision of treatment. Discover also the Kobido treatment in the studio and our other courses.

Train from anywhere

Thanks to the e-learning format, Kobido training is not reserved for Paris-area practitioners: wherever you are, you access the video modules, teaching materials and the support of our trainers. Demonstrations are filmed from several angles for a precise understanding of each gesture. You progress at your own pace, review the sequences as many times as needed, and validate your skills step by step. For those who wish, an in-person practice session in Paris (Neuilly-sur-Seine) perfects the gestural mastery. This hybrid approach combines the best of both worlds: the flexibility of distance learning and the precision of in-person practice.

After the training: get started

Our role does not end with the technical transfer. We help you add Kobido to your menu: pricing position, sales pitch, and how to showcase the treatment to your clients. As a premium and still rare treatment, Kobido is an excellent lever for differentiation and moving upmarket. Many practitioners quickly make it one of their signature treatments, loved by clients seeking natural anti-ageing. You leave with a rare, immediately monetisable and lastingly sought-after skill.
