Facial Revitalisation Acupuncture
Facial Revitalisation Acupuncture is a safe, relaxing and fairly painless, non-surgical method to reduce the signs of ageing. It revitalises the face and provides a safe alternative to Botox, surgery and other more invasive techniques.
According to Chinese medical theory, our face expresses the state of our Shen (spirit). The ageing process is perfectly natural and comes with its own sense of beauty, with facial markings highlighting who we are, our history and personality. However, most of us are not so keen on allowing any signs of tension and fatigue to set into the face. Therefore facial acupuncture helps to reduce these signs and allows our innate beauty and radiance to re-emerge.
What to expect
Following an assessment of the face and overall health, very fine needles are inserted into the face. The needles stimulate the circulation of blood and qi throughout the facial tissues and help to release emotional tension held in the facial muscles. Subsequently you may observe noticeable improvement of skin and muscle tone, even after just one session. By increasing the vitality of the face, facial acupuncture may decrease lines, making the face appear more relaxed and younger, simply due to the direct stimulation of natural energies.
