What exactly is Cosmetic Acupuncture?

Cosmetic Acupuncture is the use of tiny needles placed in the face and on points of the body for the purpose of facial rejuvenation. We combine sophisticated acupuncture techniques with at-home skin care recommendations and herbal formulas to achieve optimal results.

How does it work?

Many of the effects of aging are due to a decrease in circulation. Based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Cosmetic Acupuncture works to increase the circulation of energy and blood to the face. This increase in circulation causes an increase in the amount of nutrients, collagen and elastin moving to the facial area.

What kind of results can I expect?

The effects of Cosmetic Acupuncture may include a more even, glowing complexion, a decrease in fine lines and softening of wrinkles, diminished puffiness around the eyes, and a general lifting of the face, including jowls. In addition, most clients report other health benefits, such as improved digestion, decreased stress, less menstrual discomfort, decreased acne breakouts, and less TMJ symptoms, such as teeth grinding. In fact, in a study reported by the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture, 90% of the participants reported improvements, such as better complexion, diminished lines and wrinkles, and feeling rejuvenated overall.
