Cosmetic Acupuncture Q & A

​ Cosmetic acupuncture is an extension of traditional acupuncture that can help your skin appear younger, smoother, and healthier. As it improves your skin’s underlying health, cosmetic acupuncture naturally decreases the signs of aging. ​ The highly respected professionals at The Core Acupuncture & Wellness use their skill and expertise to combine acupuncture, acupressure, herbal medicine, and other treatment protocols to enhance the results of cosmetic acupuncture.

​ Cosmetic acupuncture works by triggering your body’s natural tissue repair system, prompting it to increase the production of substances such as collagen to maintain your skin’s health, improve elasticity, and minimize fine lines and wrinkles. Acupuncture also stimulates your lymphatic and circulatory systems, which deliver nutrients and oxygen that nourish your skin from the inside out. This helps even out your complexion and restores a youthful glow.

​ Cosmetic acupuncture is beneficial for both men and women who would like to: Minimize fine lines and wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, and near the mouth Firm and tighten sagging skin on the cheeks, chin, and neck Improve skin complexion and brightness Reduce under eye bags and puffiness Cosmetic acupuncture is a nonsurgical, painless therapy that leaves you with a healthy, natural look and requires no post treatment recovery time.
