COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE FOR FACIAL REJUVENATION

Cosmetic surgery is one of the most costly and invasive procedures that pulls the face taut by removing ⁄ cutting out sagging surplus tissue. Rather than deadening tissue or cutting it, why not rejuvenate your facial muscles and skin naturally through increased circulation of blood and lymph with cosmetic acupuncture?

WHAT IS COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE?

Cosmetic Acupuncture, facial acupuncture or an Acupuncture Facelift is a non–surgical procedure that will help rejuvenate and revitalize your whole body. It will improve blood and energy circulation, nourish your skin and may help to diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sagging jowls and chin, and dull skin. Cosmetic Acupuncture is based on the principals of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Facial acupuncture ⁄ Cosmetic acupuncture’s focus much broader, proceeding from the assumption that only a healthy body and mind can sustain a smooth face and glowing complexion. Single use, high quality disposable hair–thin Seirin acupuncture needles are therefore inserted not only into the face, but also at points elsewhere in the body, where the flow of energy (known as Qi in Chinese medicine) can be stimulated in order to treat the underlying factors that contribute to the aging process.

The superficial insertion on the face will increase the local circulation to the face and stimulate collagen production, which will fill out the lines and give firmness to the skin for a healthy, glowing complexion and also as the movement of energy improves, a greater amount of energy and blood are circulated to the face, nourishing, hydrating, toning and diminishing the appearance of wrinkles, giving a younger, more youthful appearance to the face.


"WHARE QI GOES, BLOOD FLOWS", AS THE CHINESE SAY

Facial Acupuncture may also have the added benefit of stimulating the body’s production of collagen, a major structural protein that provides strength to the skin. A decline of collagen with aging is one of the main causes of sagging and puffiness in the face.

WHY CHOOSE COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE OVER A FACE LIFT?
Cosmetic Acupuncture is not a replacement for surgery; however it is an excellent natural alternative. It is much less costly and a safer treatment. Unlike face lift surgery, it is painless and has no negative side effects; there is no trauma inflicted on the body and there is no need for recovery. There is no risk of disfigurement and you can stop with no ill effects if it does not suit you.

Unlike facelift ⁄ cosmetic surgery, which may have an extended recovery period (2 weeks or longer) with swelling, discoloration and scarring, cosmetic acupuncture actually helps heal the face.


WHAT IS THE COURSE OF TREATMENT?
Although a radiance of complexion and brightness in the eyes is often noted after a single treatment, for the best results, a series of 12 sessions performed weekly or twice a week is recommended. Results are visible around the 7th or 8th session. Monthly maintenance sessions will prolong the results as will facial exercises, facial acupressure massage, a healthy diet and a balanced lifestyle.

In the clinic, most patients have noticed a lift ⁄ tightening of the face and cheeks right after the first treatment session, accompanied with a very relaxed feeling.


DOES IT REALLY WORK?
Cosmetic Acupuncture has been performed for thousands of years in China. As early as the Sung Dynasty (960AD–1270AD) Cosmetic Acupuncture was performed on the Empress and Emperor’s concubines. For centuries, the Chinese have known that beauty radiates from the inside out. If the internal body is nourished and the energy and blood are flowing smoothly, the external body will reveal this radiance.

A 1996 report in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported that among 300 cases treated with Cosmetic Acupuncture, 90% had marked effects with one course of treatment. The effects include: The skin becomes delicate, improvement of elasticity of facial muscles, ruddier complexion, and overall rejuvenation.
