Cosmetic Acupuncture or mei rong, is a virtually painless method of using very thin, single use needles on the face to stimulate the body's natural ability to produce collagen. This increase in collagen and circulation helps to reduce the visible signs of aging. The 'micro-traumas' and microcirculation from needles, cupping, rolling and gentle scraping leave patients with a natural glow.
A 1996 report in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported that among 300 cases treated in China with cosmetic facial acupuncture, 90% had marked effects with one course of treatment. The effects included: improvement in skin texture and colouring, increased elasticity, reduction of wrinkles and overall rejuvenation, not merely confined to the face. Get a naturally flawless complexion by reversing the traces of time, clearing acne and decreasing scaring. |

Cosmetic Acupuncture VS. Cosmetic SurgeryWhile not a replacement for surgery, cosmetic acupuncture can be a great alternative to surgery for a fraction of the price!
Although the results with cosmetic acupuncture will not be as dramatic as some surgeries like rhinoplasty, there will be a subtle rejuvenation to the skin that make you look years younger while avoiding some of the scary side-effects of surgery like pain, swelling and discolouration. "Where Qi Goes, Blood Flows"This well-known Chinese axiom refers to the increased circulation that facial rejuvenation acupuncture will cause, resulting in a natural glow which will help you look younger and more refreshed.
