Additional Information Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture / Acupuncture facelift is becoming a more popular, non-surgical method for those who want not only to maintain beauty, radiance and vitality in the face, but also improve their overall health and well being. Acupuncture facelifts have even been featured in the mainstream media, such as on ABC Television's "Good Morning America" and Public Broadcasting System's "Healthweek." Studies show that among 300 cases treated with facial acupuncture, 90% had marked beneficial results with only one course of treatment (International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture, 1996). Acupuncture for facial beauty is a wonderful, holistic, alternative approach to fighting the aging process: Increasing the flow of energy, blood and lymph circulation improves the face's natural, healthy color, diminishes wrinkles and eliminates fine lines. Promoting collagen production increases muscle tone and elasticity helping to firm the skin, fill out wrinkles, and reduce bags and sagging. Stimulating the formation of body fluids nourishes the skin and encourages it to be moister, softer, smoother, and more lustrous. Chinese herbs work excellently in replenishing Yin energy (body fluid), which is extremely beneficial in the prevention and improvement of wrinkles resulting from menopause or cigarette smoking. |
