Have you ever wanted to look younger without all the cosmetic surgery and the expense of procedures like Botox, face lifts, and facial reconstruction surgery? Well, now you can with Facial Rejuvenation treatments that are all natural with the use of Acupuncture, cupping, and guasha. We can treat bags under the eyes, dark circles under the eyes, drooping eyelids, jowls, sagging neck, dark skin discoloration, redness in the face, fine lines and wrinkles, and increasing more collagen which makes the skin look supple.
For thousands of years, the Chinese have known that beauty comes from the inside as early as the Sung Dynasty (960AD-1270AD) Acupuncture rejuvenation practices were employed for the Empress and the Emperor’s concubines. The Chinese discovered ways to change the energy flow within the body to initiate the process of rejuvenation. Increased circulation helps the body look and feel better. Facial Rejuvenation improves digestion, immunity, and circulation and reduces inflammation. It carries nutrients to cells which stimulate increased collagen and elastin production. Because of the wound-healing response, collagen is also produced from the insertion of acupuncture needles and intradermal needles.
Does it really work?
A 1996 report in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture* reported that in 300 cases treated with Facial Acupuncture, 90% had marked effects with one course of treatment. The documented effects included: improvement of the elasticity of facial muscles, leveling of wrinkles, and overall rejuvenation–not confined to face.

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture
Employs the use of the highest quality, pre-sterilized, disposable acupuncture needles inserted gently around the face, neck and scalp. Body points are also used to address underlying causes contributing to the aging process. While your skin is reacting to the subtle stimulation, the treatment is also adjusting the energy throughout your entire body. The treatment finishes with a gentle massage of the face using cupping and guasha techniques.
Each treatment is 1.5 hours long and is part of a 12-treatment series (weekly or bi-weekly). Your first session will last 2 hours. Maintenance sessions are scheduled according to the individual’s needs after the initial series. You may see changes as soon as the first treatment is completed, but each succeeding treatment builds on the last.
There are some contraindications to Facial Rejuvenation such as High Blood Pressure, Migraines (chronic) not so much hormonal or those that get them infrequently, diabetes, seizures, epilepsy, hepatitis, coronary disease.
