FACIAL REJUVENATION

COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE

The empresses of ancient China knew to use the powers of Chinese medicine to enhance their beauty.  Cosmetic acupuncture and Facial Rejuvenation has its origin in the treatments for the empresses and the royal concubines thousands of years ago.

The treatments stimulate the circulation of the blood, Qi (pronounced chee) and lymph systems of the face and body.  In addition it promotes collagen production, relaxes muscle tension, and tonifies the skin.

Additional benefits to the treatments are improved sleep, better digestion, and stress reduction.

Treatments

A typical Facial Rejuvenation program involves two one-hour treatments a week for 6 weeks and then monthly maintenance visits.  The four components of the program are Acupuncture, Herbal & Nutritional supplements, Facial Qi Gong, and Facial Cosmetology. 

The initial visit will be 1-1/2 hours and includes an interview and diagnostic assessment to design your individualized treatment program.  In addition to the acupuncture, in some cases, herbal and nutritional supplements may be beneficial.  Facial Qi Gong involves some simple exercises that can be practiced at home for a few minutes daily. 

Depending on skin condition, we will probably prescribe visits to a qualified esthetician for facial cosmetology and topical skin care.  Patients normally see some immediate results, and a significant improvement after three weeks.
