AcupunctureWhat is Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture?

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture or Acupuncture Facelift (Acu-Lift) is a non-surgical method of reducing the signs of aging while simultaneously revitalizing the whole body. Acu-Lift offers a holistic approach to achieving natural beauty that leaves patients feeling completely reenergized.

Founded on the tradition of Oriental Medicine, the procedure involves inserting needles on not only on specific areas of the face, but on the body as well. This is to address all areas that may be causing stresses that result in fine lines and wrinkles.

Who would benefit from Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture?

Acupuncture Facial rejuvenationThis procedure is suited for people concerned about deep wrinkles, fine lines, sagging, puffiness, large pores, dry skin and acne.  It’s for anyone who is interested in restoring their skin naturally.

What is the course of treatment?

Twelve treatments are recommended. Usually results will begin to be seen around the seventh treatment, but for lasting results it is suggested to do the full 12 weeks.

After the initial treatments are completed, a maintenance program is recommended that includes less often, but continued Acu-Lift sessions, nutritional supplements, self-facial massage and herbs. Healthful diet and lifestyle practices are also recommended. Holistic wellness counseling is available.

What are the effects?

An Acu-Lift can erase 5-15 years from the face by increasing collagen production, improving muscle tone, filling out wrinkles and firming skin. The procedure also enhances metabolism, eases tension and promotes overall improvement of complexion reducing puffiness and improving fine lines bringing out an innate healthy youthful glow.

Is Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture a new and trendy technique?

Hardly. The Chinese have known for thousands of years that beauty comes from within. Even for those unfamiliar with the principles of Chinese Medicine, it is known that increased circulation helps the body to look and feel better. Treating the underlying cause of why someone is aging is preferable to masking the outward symptoms allowing further decline to continue within the body.

Does it really make a difference?

Yes! The International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported that among 300 people who received facial acupuncture, 90% saw visible results after one treatment. Results at Cornerstone mirror those successful numbers, with patients reporting improvement in the appearance of complexion, wrinkles and overall rejuvenation.

Why choose Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture over a surgical face-lift?

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is far less costly and safe, virtually painless, has no side effects or risk of disfigurement. This makes Acu-Lift an excellent alternative to cosmetic surgery. It is not a replacement for surgery if one is trying to reshape a nose or chin, but it will take years off of your face safely and naturally while improving your overall health.
