Let’s address two of the most commonly asked questions about Cosmetic Acupuncture:
How does it work?
And can I have Cosmetic Acupuncture if I’ve had other cosmetic procedures including Botox?
How does Cosmetic Acupuncture work exactly?
Cosmetic Acupuncture is emerging as a natural approach to skin rejuvenation, drawing interest for its ability to promote collagen production, improve circulation, and address signs of ageing. The treatment involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the face, akin to traditional Acupuncture techniques, but with a focus on looking extra gorgeous.
It heals
The underlying principle of Cosmetic Acupuncture lies in its stimulation of the body’s natural healing processes, particularly in the skin. By targeting key Acupuncture points, practitioners aim to encourage collagen synthesis, which contributes to improved skin texture, elasticity and overall appearance. Additionally, enhanced circulation can lead to a more radiant complexion, diminished fine lines and the facial muscles feeling lifted.
It works on your whole body
As well as facial Acupuncture points, we will also take a holistic approach to your treatment, using points on the body to address underlying imbalances, improving your sense of wellbeing, and encouraging a glow from the inside out!
It’s natural
One of the best things about Cosmetic Acupuncture is its non-invasive nature and minimal risk of adverse effects, compared to more aggressive cosmetic procedures.
There’s no down time, meaning you can head out from the clinic and continue with daily life. You may experience some slight flushing, a sign of increased blood flow to facial muscles. Occasionally some very minor bruising may occur at needle insertion sites, which is usually painless and disappears after a couple of days.
With no chemicals or invasive techniques involved, Cosmetic Acupuncture offers an attractive alternative for those seeking natural rejuvenation methods.
Can I get Cosmetic Acupuncture with Botox or other skin treatments?
Absolutely!
Cosmetic Acupuncture can actually be used to enhance other treatments.
As always, we will devise a treatment tailored to suit you. This is what Chinese Medicine is all about and why Cosmetic Acupuncture works so well.
Make sure to tell us if you’ve received Botox or fillers in the last 6 weeks, as we will avoid needling directly into those areas. Sometimes, after receiving a series of Botox treatments, muscles in the face can become lazy, increasing the need for more frequent and higher dose Botox injections. Cosmetic Acupuncture can ‘wake up’ those muscle fibres and may actually help Botox last longer.
So that’s more on our most commonly asked Cosmetic Acupuncture questions.
