With facial acupuncture (cosmetic acupuncture) you receive excellent aesthetic results; providing your skin with a radiance and youth in an entirely natural way, while simultaneously improving the anti-aging action and the health of the tissues.
...facial acupuncture or cosmetic acupuncture is considered as a natural alternative to Botox!
Acupuncture is an ancient practice of alternative medicine. It consists of a complete and complex therapeutic method. It is based on the painless insertion of hair-like thin needles to specific points of the body.
The history of facial acupuncture
The practice of acupuncture began with the ancient royal families of China. They used needles of gold on their faces for anti-inflammatory and anti-aging action to the skin.
Today it has developed into an entire science. In England facial acupuncture or cosmetic acupuncture, is considered as an alternative Botox. The grand difference being that in acupuncture, we consider that the skin contains all the necessary ingredients and unlimited sources on its own. These just need to be activated so the process of self-treatment may begin.
How exactly does facial acupuncture work?
The basic treatment provides better oxygenation of the skin by increasing blood circulation. As a result, activating self-healing and anti-inflammatory activity of the skin tissue.
This occurs because acupuncture pierces the small, aging fibers of collagen and elastin, mobilizing the brain to send more blood, more anti-inflammatory substances, and more oxygen so the healing of the fibers may begin. In turn this makes them more durable than before.
This way by reacting catalytically with the subcutaneous muscles of the face, the architectural structure of the internal skin is remolded from the inside out; leading to a healthier, firm and youthful skin.
The method of facial acupuncture:
- Prevents the formation of wrinkles
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines
- Improves the quality of the skin
- Renews the volume of the tissues
- Grants radiance and youth to the skin
What is the difference between acupuncture and other methods?
- The biggest difference is that it not only involves the skin, but also the subcutaneous muscles of the face.
- Other treatments are local and deal with the problems on the surface.
- With acupuncture, we also activate the immune and the hormonal system so there can be a remolding and magnification of the tissue and the muscle tone.
- No substance is inserted in the body.
- It is a method that doesn't run any risks.
At what age can someone start and with what frequency?
- There is no age limit, though typically we begin at around the age of 30 and older. At this point, the skin begins to become more sensitive and less firm.
- The treatment must be repeated 1-2 times a week for the first 10 sessions depending on the condition of the skin and then once (1) a month maintenance is adequate.
- The treatment lasts 60 minutes and the results are immediately visible from the first session on.
Can other parallel techniques be used with facial acupuncture?
A mild electric current can be used, meaning parallel use of electro-acupuncture, facial cupping, in addition to a dermal roller - a special roller with small needles. Its use awakens the skin and enhances the perfusion.
The treatment can also be offered in your own personal space. |
