Cosmetic acupuncture treatments will concentrate on points and muscles of the face in order to reduce wrinkles, improve elasticity of your skin and general overall appearance. This treatment also works on lifting the face, particularly where the face begins to sag around the 'jowls' and the cheek area.

Acupuncture has been around for thousands of years, and although relatively new to the West, the Chinese have been using points on the face to combat the signs of ageing and to help with various skin conditions for many years. 

Unlike BOTOX, which carries a large number of possible side effects, cosmetic acupuncture is a natural and holistic anti-ageing treatment that aims to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The whole face is treated and as body points are also used, a patient's general health and wellbeing can be improved. Patients often report that they feel healthier, sleep better, have brighter eyes and feel more balanced after a facial acupuncture session. 

 

How does Facial Acupuncture work?

 

• Increased blood circulation encourages oxygenation, detox and lymph drainage.
• Improves skin tone and texture.
• Stimulates collagen to plump up the skin.
• Tightens muscles in the face and neck.
• Increases cell regeneration filling out and smoothing lines and wrinkles.
• Regulates and balances hormones – in acne-type, stress-related and menopausal skin.

 

Cosmetic acupuncture can also be an effective way to treat skin conditions such as facial dermatitis, rosacea and acne.
