Facial Rejuvenation

Facial Rejuvenation or Cosmetic Acupuncture involves inserting fine sterile needles into the face, neck, hands, wrists, legs in an effort to help minimize and soften the appearance of deep and fine lines and wrinkles. It can also help take years off of your face without the use of Botox, chemical peels or surgery. In addition, cosmetic acupuncture can also help minimize dark circles, puffy eyes, double chin, sagging skin and droopy eyelids. Finally, facial rejuvenation results in tightening skin pores, brightening the eyes, moistening the patient’s skin (from the inside out), as well as keeping acne under control. Your skin will feel nourished and refreshed, promoting a natural glow and healthy complexion without all of the harmful chemicals and procedures.
