How does it work?

Cosmetic acupuncture works by increasing and supporting the flow of qi and blood through the meridians of the face. When inserted into the dermis, the hair-thin needles help to stimulate the collagen and elastin matrix of the skin which reduces fine lines and wrinkles for a healthy, glowing complexion.

How many treatments do I need?

For longer lasting effects, 10* sessions bi-weekly or once per week.

*Occasionally 12-14 sessions are needed, depending on the condition of the skin. 

However, some people enjoy a session once in awhile just to look and feel refreshed!

Before committing to cosmetic acupuncture, it is advised to have a consultation to discuss whether the cosmetic acupuncture protocol is right for you.
