Cosmetic Acupuncture & Stimulation of Collagen Production

If the eyes are the windows to our souls, the face is a two way mirror to our identity. Our faces, even at a glance display our moods even our health, conversely what others interpret at this glance can immediately be reflected back, influencing how we see ourselves. This is how we can deduce that a perfect stranger is tired, even chronically tired, or how we can conclude that there may be something green stuck in our teeth based on flash of facial expression. Although much of this is done on a subconscious level, it is our nature as social beings to read each other. 

Cosmetic and facial rejuvenation Acupuncture has been practiced for just as long as Acupuncture. Historically reserved for royalty, we now serve as kings and queens of our own empires whether this is being an integral part of a company or commanding a family. How we present ourselves has influence on these relationships. 

As most of our patients know, in Chinese Medicine we use tongue and pulse to diagnose what is occurring inside. The face can be used similarly because of its most abundant blood and nerve supply, making the face truly a reflection of the self whether this is emotional (think worry lines vs. laugh lines), external or internal (think dark circles or hormonal acne). 

Cosmetic Acupuncture works best when utilized in courses consisting of 10 treatments, with an individual requiring 1-3 courses.  Each treatment uses points on the face to create micro trauma which works to promote collagen production and brings elasticity locally. Facial points are paired with points on the body serving  to direct further circulation, regulate hormones, and bring the body into homeostasis. Additional benefits include stress reduction as well as allergy relief due to the location and nature of the points.
