Traditional Chinese Medicine focuses on the face as a reflection of internal health. Therefore, when acupuncture is utilized to address possible health and well being concerns, it follows suit that improvements will be reflected through the individual’s outward appearance. This process involves the use of fine sterile needles inserted at specific locations, which produces a “micro-injury”. The body then begins a beneficial healing response both locally and throughout the body. Our knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine allows us to pin point which spots should be targeted in correspondence with the different bodily systems.
It’s important to note that the results obtained through cosmetic surgery, injectables, or Botox cannot be replaced using acupuncture alone. Nevertheless, it is a beneficial natural alternative to conventional medicine that does offer significant improvements to overall health and appearance.
