Acupuncture is a unique, non-surgical procedure, which
revitalizes your face and abdomen. The treatments reduce the appearance
of fine lines and wrinkles, and lift and tighten sagging skin. I
use very small acupuncture needles which are specially designed
for use on the face. The needles bring qi and blood to the area
and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, the proteins
that tighten the skin.
In a minimum of ten consecutive treatments I will perform the acupuncture
treatment, educate you on proper skin care, and inspire you to make
good decisions about nutrition for your skin and your overall health.
Many patients report positive “extra” benefits with
this procedure. Increased energy, improved quality of sleep, and
better digestion are common side-effects.
Three
different protocols are available:
-
Upper face: targets lines on the forehead and
around the eyes
-
Lower face:
lifts and tightens sagging skin around the jaw and smoothes lines
around the mouth
-
Abdomen:
tightens loose skin that is so common following pregnancy, and
can facilitate the loss of inches when used in conjunction with
a weight loss program
