Facial rejuvenation acupuncture (also known as 'non surgical face lift') includes a whole body treatment. The aim of the therapy is not only to resolve problems at the surface, but also to address the internal imbalance that is causing the problem in the first place. For example, in Chinese Medicine, a lack of tone in facial muscles is due to a weakness in the internal organ system relating to the spleen. Therefore, in addition to stimulating the facial muscles themselves, the practitioner will also strengthen the system at its root, so that sagging is less likely to recur. This whole body approach to rejuvenation provides lasting results and many report that they not only start looking better, but also feel better, sleep better, have improved digestion and are relieved of aches and pains.

What are the benefits?
With cosmetic acupuncture the face muscles are toned, so facial expression is not as restricted as it is with botox. The needles stimulate and promote natural collagens. This means the skin fills out wrinkles in a totally natural manner and without loss of mobility or expression. This stimulation also makes the skin more vibrant and gives a natural "glow" that is difficult to achieve through botox or surgical means.

How many treatments will I need?
Weekly or bi-weekly treatments will be necessary for a course of 5 sessions, though this may vary from person to person as all treatments are tailored to the individual. Future 'top-up' treatments may also be required and you will be advised of this at your consultation.
