Cosmetic Acupuncture
Enhance your glow.
Cosmetic acupuncture, also known as facial acupuncture, is a holistic health technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific areas of the face and body to promote skin health and address signs of aging.
Some of the benefits include:
Wrinkle Reduction
Cosmetic acupuncture can help smooth out wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that contribute to their formation. When the needles are inserted, the body's natural response is to repair those micro "injuries" which can lead to the softening of wrinkle lines.
Muscle Tone Improvement
By stimulating specific acupuncture points, facial acupuncture can enhance muscle tone and firmness, preventing sagging by improving the strength of the facial muscles.
Collagen Production
The needles create positive micro-traumas in the skin, stimulating fibroblasts to produce more collagen, the protein responsible for skin elasticity and firmness.
Blood and Lymph Circulation
The procedure is thought to enhance blood and lymph circulation, which can aid in the removal of toxins and provide a healthy nutrient flow to the skin, promoting a natural glow.
Brighter and Healthier Skin
The combination of these effects, particularly the increase in collagen and improved circulation, can make the skin look more vibrant and healthy after a series of treatments.
Cosmetic acupuncture is provided by a Naturopathic Doctor and can be submitted to your extended benefits under Naturopathy.
