Cosmetic Acupuncture
What is Cosmetic Acupuncture?
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture, or Cosmetic Acupuncture, is a natural, holistic alternative to plastic surgery and botox injections.
Micro-thin needles are gently inserted into specific points on the face to stimulate blood-flow and collagen production. The result is improved muscle tone and skin elasticity, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and leaving the skin bright, hydrated, and healthy-looking.
To enhance the session, infrared light and mico-current treatments are also included.
How many treatments will I need?
A typical course of treatment consists of 10 sessions, performed twice per week. After the initial course of treatment, monthly or seasonal maintenance sessions are recommended.
How long does Facial Acupuncture last?
Research has shown that a cosmetic acupuncture facelift can last 3-5 years. It is important to understand that the aging process continues during this time, and that diet, age, lifestyle and illnesses can affect the length of the results.
Are there any side effects?
Potential side effects include the possibility of minor, temporary bruising or temporarily flushed skin. The most common side-effects are that you feel relaxed, refreshed, and revitalized.
How do I prepare for my cosmetic acupuncture sessions?
Wear comfortable clothes or bring shorts and a short sleeve top. Avoid taking ibuprofen (advil), aspirin or excessive doses of Vitamin E two weeks prior, to reduce the potential for bruising (unless you have been otherwise advised by your doctor).
Do not wear make-up to the treatments. Your skin should be clean.
No sauna, hot tub, or hot showers for one hour before the treatment.
Do not wear sunscreen before the treatments; but do wear it after the treatments.
What is the cost?
Individual sessions are $105, and the 10-treatment package is $950. If you’d like to experience a treatment before committing to the full package, the cost of your first session can be applied towards the purchase of a package.
