Facial Rejuvenation
Reverse the signs of aging naturally
Facial rejuvenation acupuncture, sometimes referred to as "acupuncture facelift," is a wonderful timeless beauty technique used by the Chinese since the Sung Dynasty (960-1279 AD). Today, it is an effective non-surgical yet painless way to lessen the appearance of fine lines as well as deeper wrinkles.
Fine acupuncture needles are inserted into the dermis layer to stimulate collagen growth. Additional needles are inserted to use your body's qi energy to promote circulation to the face and neck. These protocols are custom tailored to address your areas of concern. Each session is approximately 65-75 minutes in length with photobiomodulation ( LED light therapy) and includes herbal and nutritional counseling, as well as a post-treatment facial acupressure session.
Facial rejuvenation helps with:
fine lines
wrinkles
discoloration/uneven tone
acne
improving overall health & quality
improving underlying skin muscle tone
balancing oily skin, hydrates dry skin
improving blood/lymph circulation
improving collagen production
The key to good results from Facial Rejuvenation is an active, healthy lifestyle. Factors such as sleeping, eating, drinking, smoking, exercise and meditation all play into how your body will heal and react to the treatments. Research has shown that genetics dictate 40% of our aging while lifestyle is 60%.

How does it work?
Tiny needles are inserted into the dermis layer of the skin creating micro-trauma. Dermal fibroblasts respond by building more collagen in that area. The visual result is softening of wrinkles, face lifting, even tone and improves blood/ lymph node circulation in the skin.
From a TCM viewpoint, this procedure tonifies and lifts qi, nourishes yin, essence and blood, strengthens digestion and helps build post-natal qi.
How many sessions are needed before noticing improvement?
A complete course of treatment is 10 sessions, twice a week, over a 5 week period. Visible improvements are usually seen at session 6 or 7. A supplement of herbal remedies, recommended skin care and healthy lifestyle are suggested for optimal results. On average, most patients see a 3 to 5 (on average) year difference after a completed course of treatment. Some reported seeing up to a 10 year difference!
Please note that any treatments such as Botox and dermal fillers will need to be announced at the initial treatment session.
