What is Cosmetic acupuncture?

Cosmetic acupuncture also known as facial acupuncture or facial rejuvenation acupuncture, is a non-surgical beauty treatment that involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points on the face.


Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it works by improving the flow of Qi (vital energy), blood, and essence (Jing) throughout the body, promoting balance and overall wellness.
As we age, our skin undergoes various changes, including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Loss of elasticity and firmness
  • Puffiness and fluid retention
  • Uneven skin tone and pigmentation
  • Sagging facial muscles

Cosmetic acupuncture helps combat these signs of aging by boosting collagen and elastin production, increasing blood circulation, and revitalizing the skin’s natural glow.

How Does Cosmetic acupuncture work?

The treatment involves the insertion of ultra-fine, sterile needles into specific acupuncture points on the face and body.
These points stimulate:

Collagen & Elastin Production - Essential for firm, youthful skin.

Blood Circulation - Delivers oxygen and nutrients to skin cells.

Lymphatic Drainage - Reduces puffiness and promotes detoxification.

Muscle Tone - Helps lift and tighten sagging facial muscles.

Unlike injectables or surgical facelifts, cosmetic acupuncture offers natural, long-term results without harsh chemicals or downtime.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?
While traditional cosmetic acupuncture requires 10-12 sessions for optimal results, our clinic enhances treatment efficacy by combining it with either:

- Micro-needling: Stimulates deeper collagen induction.

- Radiofrequency Micro-needling: Tightens skin and boosts elasticity.

This combination helps accelerate results, giving you a fresher, more rejuvenated appearance in fewer sessions.

FAQs About Cosmetic Acupuncture
Is cosmetic acupuncture painful?

No, the needles used are extremely thin, and most patients report minimal discomfort-often described as a slight tingling sensation.


How soon will I see results?

Some clients notice a brighter complexion and reduced puffiness after the first session. However, for lasting improvements in wrinkles and skin firmness, a series of 6-12 treatments (combined with micro-needling or RF) is recommended.


Are there any side effects?

Cosmetic acupuncture is very safe. Minor temporary redness or slight bruising may occur but typically fades within hours.


How long do results last?

Results can last 6 months to a year, depending on skin condition and lifestyle. Maintenance sessions every 4-6 weeks can prolong benefits.


Can cosmetic acupuncture replace Botox or fillers?

While it doesn't provide the same immediate volume as fillers, it offers natural, cumulative improvements in skin quality, elasticity, and muscle tone without artificial substances.


Who is a good candidate for cosmetic acupuncture?

Early signs of aging (fine lines, dull skin)
