Cosmetic Acupuncture, often referred to as facial acupuncture, is a natural and holistic treatment that aims to improve skin health, enhance your youthful appearance, and promote overall wellness. This treatment is based on traditional Chinese medicine principles, leveraging the body’s innate healing capabilities to rejuvenate the skin from the inside out.
Our skilled practitioners at Body Option Clinic apply a comprehensive approach in each Cosmetic Acupuncture session:
Fine, sterilized needles are inserted at specific points on the face to stimulate collagen production, improve blood circulation, and promote skin rejuvenation.
Additional needles may be placed at points on the body to balance the body’s energy, or qi, to complement the effects of facial acupuncture.
