Cosmetic Acupuncture
Cosmetic Acupuncture
Cosmetic Acupuncture is a 75 minute facial acupuncture treatment that harnesses the power of acupuncture to enhance natural beauty. By strategically inserting fine needles into specific acupoints on the face, we stimulate collagen production, improve blood circulation, and promote the flow of Qi (life force energy). This rejuvenates the skin from within, reducing fine lines, diminishing wrinkles, toning and restoring the skin's elasticity.
Beyond its cosmetic effects, facial acupuncture nurtures the mind-body connection, providing a sense of tranquility and relaxation that radiates through the face, revealing a revitalized and youthful glow.
This treatment includes:
Chinese medical assessment
Body acupuncture to address skin concerns holistically
Facial massage or reflexology
Facial guasha or cupping
Facial needles
Celluma Red Light Therapy
Techniques and Theory
TCM techniques for facial rejuvenation are safe, non-invasive, non-toxic, have minimal-to-no side effects, and require no recovery time in comparison to chemical peels, face lifts, and injections.
TCM theory behind aging skin revolves around two concepts: vital substances of qi and blood naturally decrease with age. When qi and blood are abundant and move smoothly, the skin will be nourished and look radiant. Radiant skin and eyes is a sign of good shen, spirit, in Chinese medicine. When qi and blood diminish with age, priority for distribution of these vital substances goes to the internal organs, leaving the skin undernourished.
The TCM modalities used for facial rejuvenation are focused on increasing circulation of qi and blood to the face to include the following results:
