Guide to Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture

Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is a non-evasive, non-surgical procedure, that combines acupuncture, facial massage with oil infusing lotions, relaxation techniques and dietary changes to help promote an overall transformation into a more youthful and younger looking appearance. The overall concept is that beauty comes from within. When you have internal harmony, you will have external beauty.

There are many things to consider before embarking on the journey of facial rejuvenation acupuncture. It is not a quick fix for fine lines and wrinkles, nor will you get the dramatic results that occur with the more traditional surgical techniques. Typically you will not notice any major results until after the fourth or fifth session. But, if you are looking for a more natural, youthful and a healthier appearance, without the risks, complications and expense of a typical face-lift then facial rejuvenation acupuncture may be the option for you.

Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is a relatively painless procedure in which ultra fine needles are inserted shallowly into the dermal layer of the skin. These needles are placed along specific channels of Qi which are located in the face, neck, hands, trunk, legs and feet. There have been no known complications or side effects associated with the insertion of these needles, nor is there any swelling, redness or discoloration of the skin. However in a very few cases, there have been reports of minor bruising.

The average course of treatment for facial rejuvenation acupuncture is approximately 12 treatments, consisting of 1 to 2 sessions, per week, for the duration of 3 months. Your results from the completed 3 month course will last for up to 3 to 5 years. A monthly maintenance program will help you to maintain the benefits for a longer period of time.

The cost for facial rejuvenation acupuncture is a lot less than that of a surgical face-lift. You can expect to pay in the range of $75.00 to $150.00 per session. The overall cost for your 3 month course of treatment could range in price from $900.00 to $2000.00, although some acupuncturists will cut the overall price, if the entire amount is paid in advance.
