What is Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture?
For thousands of years, the Chinese have known that beauty comes from the inside. At least as early as the Sung Dynasty (960AD-1270AD) Acupuncture rejuvenation practices were employed for the Empress, and the Emperor's concubines. Based on the principles of oriental medicine it designed to help the whole body look and feel younger
What can I Expect During a Treatment?
Your treatment will begin with a complete Chinese medicine diagnosis and a discussion about what areas of your face you wish to focus on. Very fine needles are then place in points on your face and body.
Your treatment also includes facial massage, using specific massage techniques applied to various areas of the face, especially at key acupressure points.

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture does not just affect your face.It is a holistic treatment which aims to restore balance in the body.
As a result, you may also notice other health benefits such as a reduction in stress levels, less muscle tension, fewer headaches, improved digestion, better appetite and weight regulation, more energy, better sleep and a brighter outlook on life
What is the course of treatment?
Generally, it consists of 12 treatments given once or twice a week. The effects become most noticeable on or around the seventh session, though many people notice improvement much sooner. Each person responds differently, depending on his or her condition and lifestyle prior to treatment. Following the initial course of treatment, maintenance sessions can prolong the results for five to ten years.
Is there any Research Behind it?
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is a relatively new technique. However, its benefits are already well documented.
In 1996 the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported a trial in which 90% of 300 cases treated with Facial Acupuncture had marked effects just after one course of treatment.
My own experience suggests similar results, with the majority of patients reporting improvements in their appearance in just a few sessions.
Cautions and Contraindications
Headache or serious illness must be resolved prior. Rejuvenation requires extra energy to rebuild itself which are already being consumed when ill.
As with regular acupuncture we do our best not to bruise but bruising is always a possibility when piercing the skin.
How Much Does It Cost?
Facial Rejuvenation costs $1200 for the course of 12 treatments
