What happens at the Cosmetic/Facial Acupuncture Treatment?
The Cosmetic/Facial Acupuncture Treatment - for facial rejuvenation
Clients are advised to wear loose clothing, so access to acupuncture points on the body, arms or legs is unhindered. New clients need to download a Health Questionnaire and Informed Consent Form - fill in as much as possible, then bring it along to the first appointment.
While in Cosmetic acupuncture/Facial acupuncture, the points on the
face enhances our "outer" beauty; needling additional acupuncture
points (usually on the arms or legs) benefits "inside". This
is a holistic approach: beautify the exterior and tend to the interior
influences.
A course of 10 cosmetic acupuncture/Facial acupuncture treatments are administered either weekly or twice a week - this is the standard protocol. After the first treatment there can be very noticeable sensation, however, the best effect can be noticed after the 4th treatment. The results are cumulative, therefore by the 10th treatment session you can return 9 months later for another course. Alternatively, you can opt for a monthly maintenance which is most preferable to keep yin yang health and beauty.
You do not need to book a whole of 10 treatments if you do not want to, instead you can book one session as you go.
The Goal
Using special small fine sterile disposable needles, which we will insert
them into the dermal layer of the skin. The goal is to stimulate the
body's natural production of collagen and elastin by causing a tiny
'micro trauma' to the facial tissue. Body points are used to balance
internal health which in effect assist and maintain wonderful facial
rejuvenation.
The Effect
When the body senses the tiny 'trauma' caused by the needle, it rushes
collagen and elastin to the injury site for repair. In the repair process,
your skin becomes more plump and resilient.
The Result
By increasing production of collagen and elastin, the appearance of
fine lines and wrinkles is minimise, the quality and texture of the
skin is improved, sagging of the eyelids and jawline is lifted, and
colour and lustre of the skin is improved. You will feel incredibly
relax and this is great additional integral part of facial beauty.
