COSMETIC (FACIAL REJUVENATION) ACUPUNCTURE
Using the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to help restore a
revitalised youthfulness to the complexion from a deep energetic level, this unique
youth-promoting treatment also prevents the formation of wrinkles, minimises the
appearance of fine lines and improves the process by which the skin regulates its
quality and appearance.
Reportedly a youth-promoting favourite of many health-conscious A-list celebrities
including Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna and Julianne Moore as featured in
Hello! Magazine (February 2009), 10 Years Younger (March 2009) and more
recently the Daily Mail (February 2011), Cosmetic Acupuncture represents a safe and
natural cosmetic method to promote youthfulness and enhance natural beauty.

Non-Surgical Facial & Cosmetic Acupuncture
A time-tested solution to an age-old problem
The non-surgical cosmetic acupuncture procedure is a holistic, natural and comprehensive skin rejuvenation program designed to restore, rejuvenate and relax. Drawn from the ancient texts of Chinese medicine, cosmetic acupuncture is a relatively painless, natural technique. Small, less than hair-width acupuncture needles are placed in a precise configuration just under the skin’s surface to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. It is an excellent natural alternative to a cosmetic surgery face lift and botox treatments.
What to Expect from Cosmetic Acupuncture
The results of cosmetic acupuncture anti-aging treatments reflect not only a change in external appearance, but also an improvement in total body wellness. Specifically, you may notice:
More radiant, beautiful skin
Disappearance of fine lines
Smoothing of deep lines
Fading of age spots
More toned muscles
Enhanced overall appearance and health
Additionally, there are positive side effects to both the facial skin rejuvenation and abdominal cosmetic acupuncture procedures that include
a clearing of acne and rosacea;
reduced depression and less anxiety;
better digestion and sleep cycles; and
fewer hot flashes and night sweats.
For those who opt for abdominal acupuncture, benefits include
increased fertility and/or sex drive
The Benefits of Facial Rejuvenation
Promotes blood and lymph circulation; increased circulation dilates peripheral blood vessels for better distribution of oxygen and nutrients as well as cellular regeneration.
Rehydrates the skin’s external layers through stimulation of the secretion of the sweat and sebacious glands which encourages the regeneration of healthy skin cells.
Helps exfoliation, aids the proliferation of new skin cells, increases nutrition to the skin’s surface, improves the quality of the skin and promotes a healthy glow.
Allows healthy “breathing” of the skin, increasing the skin’s protective ability to ward off infections and clogged pores.
Increases oxygen consumption of the skin’s external layer speeding up the release of carbon dioxide and nitrogen at the cellular level, helping to keep skin deeply clean; contributes to reducing the accumulation of excess grease on the skin’s surface.
Stimulates the production of elasin and 4 collagen proteins in the skin to reduce and soften wrinkles.
Reduces and relaxes the tension in the nerves and muscles improving the integrity of the skin resulting in improved overall facial appearance.

Success of Cosmetic Acupuncture & Facial Rejuvenation
How successful is cosmetic acupuncture? A study published in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture showed that of 300 people who received facial acupuncture, 90% saw marked results after one course of treatment.
How long your new look will last depends a lot on your lifestyle, and whether you are willing to address other areas that may need attention such as exercise, nutrition, and stress reduction. But at a fraction of the cost of other procedures, cosmetic acupuncture is a sound alternative that can restore your radiant glow both inside and out.
Facial Rejuvenation Treatment
A typical protocol begins with a consultation to determine your overall health and if you qualify for the procedure. We will also discuss your goals and which procedure you are interested in (facial vs. abdominal). This consultation runs 15-30 minutes and is free of charge. This can be conducted over the phone.
If you qualify for treatment, then a 1 1/2 hour session is scheduled to include a complete evaluation, diagnosis and overall body balancing treatment. We then schedule a course of treatments that run two times per week for five weeks. During this time, herbs and foods will be prescribed that are specifically tailored for your overall health and your stated goals for facial rejuvenation. You will also be given qi gong exercises and recommendations for skin care.
