FACIAL ACUPUNCTURE RENEWAL

Blood flow and Qi carries nutrients to the cells in our bodies. When the face is needled the body interprets the insertion of a needle as a positive injury (micro-trauma) that, in turn, through stimulation of fibroblasts, can increases collagen output. It is a full acupuncture treatment that is highly individual. It is a very holistic approach also addressing any underlying imbalances in your system that may be contributing to other health issues or beauty concerns.How does it work? Needling the skin on the face creates a mico-trauma which causes greater levels of collagen and elastin production brought on by tissue stimulation as well as a histamine release. This histamine release increases fibroblast collagen synthesis (production of chemical compounds). Qi and blood circulation is then increased allowing more nutrients and oxygen to the skin on a cellular level, allowing the facial complexion to be more balanced. Different needling techniques are used during the course of treatment to help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. One commonly used technique is called threading, this allows collagen to fill in, smooth and erase these problems. Another common technique is called motor point needling and acu-muscle facial needling which needles are placed into the facial or neck muscle(s) creating more muscle tone. Helping“lift” sagging or looser skin commonly around the neck, face, and eyes.In addition to treating the face, these acupuncture sessions can reduce other conditions such as anxiety, poor sleep quality, and reduce stress allowing for the body to get more out of the long-term effects of cosmetic acupuncture and having a greater benefit for the skin’s complexion.
