Aesthetic acupuncture perfectly combines the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine with cosmetic acupuncture to rejuvenate the skin and revive facial features and appearance. Facial acupuncture addresses not only signs of aging, but also the skin’s overall health. It works internally to optimize health while simultaneously enhancing the appearance of the skin. Cosmetic acupuncture addresses multiple factors of ageing – from smoothing lines, to enhancing the firmness and volume of skin.
Acupuncture stimulate the lymphatic and circulatory system, which work together to deliver nutrients and oxygen to the skin cells, nourishing skin from the inside out. This helps even out the complexion and promote the healthy skin’s glow. The positive microtraumas also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fobres. This helps improve elasticity, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles. Medical studies confirm that aesthetic acupuncture prevents and delays skin aging through the regulation of vascular tone and the neuro-endocrine-immune system.
More specifically, the results of cosmetic acupuncture are:
- improved skin quality,
- disappearance of fine lines,
- reduction of wrinkles,
- increased muscle tone,
- increased facial and neck muscle elasticity, resulting in straightening and tightening of the face in general,
- reduction of dark circles and puffiness around the eyes,
- tightened of skin pores,
- improved acne.
Aesthetic acupuncture is safe, without side effects, as long as it is applied as a medical procedure by a doctor, specially trained.
It is necessary to obtain a detailed medical history because many pathological problems are accompanied by dermatological manifestations. With the specific information obtained the therapeutic protocol for each patient is personalized.
Special disposable needles are used and are placed with a specific technique, in various areas of the body and then of course on the face. It is a painless and bloodless technique without side effects.
The total treatment lasts about 1 hour.
The number and frequency of sessions depends on age, skin quality, gender, hormonal profile and even the daily habits and lifestyle of the individual. It is usually 10 – 15 sessions, with a frequency once a week. It is important to follow additional maintenance sessions 1-2 times per month to accompany the reproduction of new epithelial cells.
