Cosmetic Acupuncture / Facial Acupuncture

Our face is a mirror reflecting our internal health.  In Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory beauty comes from within. When you start to age in a way that looks and feels unhealthy then it is possible the flow of Qi, Blood, and Essence are not balance within your body. When balance is restored, you will feel and look more radiant.

On a physiological level, acupuncture has been shown to increase circulation of blood and life energy throughout the body. Increased blood flow can help us to maintain healthy skin and muscle tone by sending nourishment, moisture, and “lifting” energy to the skin and muscles of the face.

By increasing lymph flow using my facial massage and combined with acupuncture I can help brighten our eyes and lift up our spirit, strengthen the immune system; our skin is an essential part of our immune system.

The needles inserted into the face affect collagen and elastin production which will help tone the skin. Collagen is a protein produced by our bodies that is responsible for our skin’s durability and resilience. Elastin is responsible for the elasticity of our skin. Sun exposure and aging degrade and decrease the production of our collagen and elastin as well as darken pigmentation and complexion.  Acupuncture helps to stimulate the body’s natural processes of cell reproduction and growth. Needles are placed in the muscle motor points to re-educate the muscles back to their original placement, thus the face looks more sculpted, more youthful and lifted. 

Cosmetic Acupuncture is also known as facial acupuncture and facial rejuvenation acupuncture.
