Although cosmetic acupuncture is a fairly new innovation in the West it is not a new beauty "fad" since it has been used in China for centuries. External beauty is so dependant upon good health and vitality that it is only natural that acupuncture should be used as a beauty treatment.

There is increasing interest in cosmetic acupuncture as it not only provides a safe alternative to cosmetic surgery, Botox, collagen injections, etc. but it also promotes improved health and well-being on a much broader scale.

The benefits are many and not just confined to the following;

Reduction in the appearance of fine lines,
Improved muscle tone,
Improved and refined skin colour and texture,
Improved circulation which, in turn, improves the elimination of toxins.
Stimulation of cell and collagen fibre repair.
Improved sleep patterns.
Improved digestion, again helping to promote the elimination of toxins.
Promotes relaxation and controls the effects of stress.

After a full assessment and consultation the acupuncture needles, which are virtually hair-like, will be inserted around the face (often around the forehead, jawline and nasal groove) as well as other areas of the body.

Whilst a course of treatment may be required to produce a more lasting benefit, improvement is often felt and noticed even after the first treatment. Having experienced cosmetic acupuncture many patients realize the general therapeutic affects of acupuncture and continue to receive preventive treatment on a regular basis.
