Cosmetic acupuncture follows the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, using the meridians in the body that either end or begin in the face to stimulate and balance energy, while also treating the underlying factors that contribute to the aging process. Cosmetic acupuncture can be performed on someone at any age; starting in a person’s 20s or 30s it can be used a preventative measure, and in their 40s or later, it can be used therapeutically and correctively.

Facial acupuncture works by piercing the skin with tiny dermal needles, resulting in “positive” microtraumas that increase circulation to the face, and boost the production of collagen and elastin to tighten skin. Cosmetic acupuncture is the ultimate anti-aging treatment because it balances our internal systems while simultaneously boosting the health and appearance of the skin.

Including facial acupuncture as a part of your service offerings in your clinic is an excellent way to broaden your client base as it can benefit everyone, people will often see results after just a few treatments, and treatments are covered under many extended healthcare plans.
