What Is Cosmetic Acupuncture
Cosmetic acupuncture is the use of traditional acupuncture channel points in the face to promote rejuvenation of the skin, and is a natural alternative to Botox and other cosmetic procedures. Fine needles are inserted into the dermal layer of the skin, promoting a production of collagen, elastin and cellular proliferation at the sites shown to have the greatest therapeutic impact. This holistic treatment focuses on skin health and promotes systemic balance with the application of body acupoints to support the treatment goals. Cosmetic Acupuncture sessions include the full scope of traditional preventative skincare tools, such as facial massage and lymphatic drainage, facial gua sha, facial cupping, scalp meridian massage, and jade roller. All of these modalities promote circulation of blood and lymph, reduce puffiness, relax tight muscles, soften lines and wrinkles, support skin cell regeneration and enhance a deep state of relaxation and natural radiance.
