facial rejuvenation acupunctureFacial rejuvenation acupuncture (sometimes called the “acupuncture facelift”) is an effective non-surgical and non-toxic method of reducing the signs of aging and improving the quality and tone of the skin on the face. However, it is much more than just a cosmetic procedure. It is a rejuvenation and revitalization process designed to help you look and feel younger and more vibrant! The treatment is based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and involves the insertion of sterile tiny acupuncture needles into specific areas of the face, head and body along the acupuncture meridians to activate Qi, or energy. Facial rejuvenation using acupuncture helps promote a more youthful, glowing appearance by supporting overall health and wellbeing. It improves muscle tone and dermal contraction through increased collagen production, improved metabolism, hormonal balance and increased circulation of blood and lymph to the face. Through all these mechanisms facial lines and skin imperfections are minimized. Cosmetic acupuncture can help reduce bags under the eyes, decrease sagging and puffiness, moisturizes skin, tighten pores and reduce double chins. Results are noticeable after several treatments and usually long-lasting after five or six weekly treatments.
