Cosmetic Acupuncture For Facial Revitalisation

Facial rejuvenation by acupuncture

Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can provide a safe, effective, natural, and drug-free approach to reducing ageing signs. A facial rejuvenation using this ancient technique can improve the face and neck's muscle tone while addressing underlying imbalances that may have contributed to the ageing process.

Why does skin sag?

According to TCM, wrinkles begin internally from a constitutional imbalance and Qi's fundamental weakness (pronounced "chee"). Qi circulates throughout the body within a series of pathways called meridians. Flowing through these pathways, Qi provides nourishment, support, and energy to every cell, tissue, muscle, and organ. As we get older, it becomes more difficult for Qi to flow upwards to "lift" the face. This leads to inadequate muscle tone, and over time, wrinkles and sagging skin. Many factors can contribute to this—poor diet, digestion and circulation, or emotional and environmental stresses.

Give your skin a lift

A facial rejuvenation using acupuncture tightens pores, improves muscle tone and dermal contraction while enhancing and increasing the skin's elasticity. Acupuncture can reduce signs of aging by strengthening and stimulating Qi's circulation within the meridian pathways, especially those of the face. You will look and feel more energetic, calm, vibrant and healthy. Acupuncture treatments may be combined with herbal supplements, exercise and acupressure to maximize results. Facial rejuvenation with acupuncture and TCM is virtually painless and a non-surgical method to reduce aging signs. Before using drugs or surgery to improve appearance, consider acupuncture. It is an effective, natural, safe, drug-free and painless alternative. It helps your whole body to look and feel younger.

Self-care techniques:

1. Herbal poultice—Thoroughly clean face. Make a poultice using equal parts of ground organic almonds, lavender and rose flowers, ground flax seeds, and oats. Add water and French clay, and stir into a thick paste. Apply to the face, avoiding the eyes, and let dry. Wash off after 15-20 minutes.
2. Stay hydrated— drink plenty of fresh spring water. This can keep the muscles and skin hydrated to prevent drying.
3. Gently massage the face.
4. Walk at least 20 minutes a day, and remember to breathe deeply.
