What is Cosmetic Acupuncture?
Non-Surgical Approach
Cosmetic acupuncture, also known as Facial Acupuncture, is a non-surgical approach to combatting signs of aging while promoting overall health. Rooted in the ancient Mei Rong philosophy, it harnesses traditional Chinese medicine principles.
By addressing internal imbalances in organs, meridians, qi, blood, and fluids, we target wrinkles, puffiness, and muscle tone changes. Our Cosmetic Acupuncturists diagnose and treat these root causes, providing holistic treatments that not only rejuvenate the face but also contribute to a more youthful, well-balanced body and mind.

How Does Cosmetic Acupuncture Work?
Cosmetic Acupuncture enhances facial blood flow, infusing the skin and muscles with nourishment and rejuvenating energy, promoting youthful skin. Factors like environmental toxins, UV exposure, aging, and poor diet can reduce collagen and elastin production, impacting skin tone. Facial acupuncture, however, triggers the production of these essential proteins, enhancing skin's durability and resilience. The treatment also re-educates muscles to their original placement, providing a sculpted and youthful lift that supports the natural structure of the face.
Common Surface Symptoms Related to Underlying Root problems
Cosmetic Acupuncture emerges as a multifaceted solution, adept at tackling various concerns such as loss of elasticity, acne around the mouth, and creasing above the upper lip, while also delving into the intricate relationship between these aesthetic issues and underlying digestive concerns. By strategically targeting acupuncture points, the treatment not only rejuvenates the skin's elasticity and alleviates acne but also contributes to addressing the root causes of digestive issues. This holistic approach underscores the transformative potential of Cosmetic Acupuncture, intertwining aesthetic revitalization with internal harmony for comprehensive well-being.
