Acupuncture is traditionally considered a treatment for pain or disease. Cosmetic acupuncture, though, offers a safe alternative to traditional plastic surgery and other potentially risky surgical procedures on your face. Virtually painless, acupuncture offers an effective method for smoothing out lines, evening out skin tone, enhancing muscle tone and improving your overall appearance that is safe and natural. Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine dating back over 6000 years, and focuses on the well-being of the total body. Acupuncture zeroes in on blocked flow of vital energy, called Qi (pronounced chee), and blood in the body. By unblocking this vital energy, acupuncture can aid in minimizing frown lines, crow's feet and smile lines, reducing a double chin, firming the jaw line and reducing jowls, lifting drooping eyelids, evening out skin tone and enhancing facial tone as well as other conditions. Acupuncture can enhance and revitalize the beauty of your face as well as your entire body when used as a cosmetic therapy. The vital energy and blood flows within your body along meridians, each of which is associated with a specific organ in the body. Acupuncture therapy strives to unblock Qi by inserting needles about the thickness of a human hair into specific points in the body, called acupoints, for a duration of several minutes during each treatment. Elastin and collagen production are increased, helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and rejuvenate dull facial skin when your meridians are cleared. An added benefit to increased collagen production (an essential protein) acupuncture helps restore your body's hormonal balance. Blemishes, acne and poor skin tone partially occur due to hormonal imbalances. Acupuncture also helps enhance the flow of blood, lymph and vital energy all of which work to relax and rejuvenate the skin. Based upon your situation and your desired results, your acupuncture therapy program will include treatments several times a week initially, and will run for several weeks. Your Acupuncturist will talk to you about factors contributing to aging, such as your lifestyle and your skin care regimen. The positive benefits achieved through acupuncture will be prolonged when you eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly and include facial exercises and massage as part of your regular routine. Cosmetic Acupuncture therapy will yield increased energy and an improved feeling of well-being as circulation is improved and nutrients are carried to the muscles and nerves throughout your entire body. The result is not only a younger looking appearance, but also enhanced skin tone and vitality of all muscles and skin. An improved sense of well-being and increased energy will aid in enhancing your outlook, help you keep a positive attitude and reduce the stress and other influences that negatively impact the flow of vital energy in your body. Your self-esteem will be improved, and you will be more enthusiastic about your on-going care for your face and your entire body. When you feel good, you look good!
