FACIAL REJUVENATION ACUPUNCTURE
Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is a natural and powerful treatment for the skin, its commonly called ‘the natural face lift’ but it's much more in-depth than that, fine needles are inserted into the face to increase blood flow and qi, prompting the skin to stimulate more collagen production and elastin, two things that slow down as we age and result in sagging and wrinkles, internal health is reflected in your face, which makes facial acupuncture a double treatment whilst treating the face, you are treating the body and any underlying health factors that can lead to premature aging.
A course of 8-12 treatments is advised for a longer lasting result preferably on a weekly basis for the first 5, changes to the skin are natural and effective and skin rejuvenation increases after each treatment, but if you are simply wanting a quick face refresh, results can be seen after just one treatment.
