Posted by Do you want to feel like a celebrity?
Facial acupuncture is the latest weapon in the anti-ageing war, and a favourite among celebrities such as Lisa Snowdon, Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sean Connery, and Jennifer Aniston. Facial acupuncture gives a natural solution to the ageing process, if you don't want to inject poison into your face like BOTOX or fillers.
Lisa Snowdon turned to acupuncture to help lift and rejuvenate’ her skin, and whilst it may look painful the area is usually numbed first so there is virtually no sensation of needles being inserted.
Acupuncture can reduce wrinkles, eliminate fine lines, lift sagging skin and improve skin colour and texture. Its effects can last for about three months, and it only takes about 45 minutes. So what's not to like?
Does it really work?
Yes it really does work! Acupuncture stimulates the flow of blood, qi and nutrients to the face, energising cellular rejuvenation and production of elastin and collagen. It tightens the fibres which lift the facial tissue, the result is tighter muscle tone, less facial stress and a more rested, relaxed and a younger looking face.
Research has shown that acupuncture stimulates the flow of blood and energy through the skin in the face, thereby hydrating, boosting the skin's supply of nutrients and oxygen and thus reducing the signs of ageing. In 1996 the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported that among 300 cases treated with facial acupuncture, 90% had marked effects with one course of treatment.
How many treatments do I need?
Some clients choose to receive the treatment for one off occasions such as presentations or parties but for long lasting results a course of treatment is recommended which can be maintained afterwards with less frequent top up treatments.
