    • What is Acupuncture Facial Rejuvenation?

    Acupuncture facial rejuvenation is a non-surgical, non-botox, healthy alternative for lifting the face and treating wrinkles, acne, blemishes, discolorations, and sagging facial muscles. Extremely thin, sterile facial needles are inserted into key facial points and retained for 2-20 minutes as necessary. These strategically placed needles lift the face and neck, improve circulation to heal blemishes and discolorations, and eliminate or reduce wrinkles. Even smaller needles are inserted into large wrinkles to reduce their appearance. Fine lines can be eliminated all together after a series of treatments. There are no poisons used and the only side-effects of facial acupuncture include better overall health as well as an improved appearance. The needles used are so fine that most patients don't feel any pain at all!

    How Many Treatments Are Necessary?

    For maximum effectiveness, I recommend a complete series of ten facial acupuncture treatments, with booster treatments scheduled as needed or for special occasions. A complete series consists of one treatment per week, for ten weeks. Most patients notice considerable improvement in skin tone and color after four treatments!

    Complementary Facial Modalities

    To enhance the facial acupuncture results, I highly recommend monthly facials from a certified aesthetician. Additionally, proper nutrition and a customized herbal formula are essential to maintain the results of acupuncture treatment. I can custom-design an herbal formula that can be refilled even after acupuncture treatments have been completed. I also carry nutritional supplements that are essential to maintaining your health and facial beauty. Since stress is one of the major contributors to facial wrinkles and sagging (next to smoking, dehydration and sun damage) I highly recommend monthly massages to decrease stress and help the body eliminate accumulated toxins. I can provide massage therapist names for referral.
