Facial Acupuncture

Beauty and skin health are major elements in perceived quality of life as people live longer. Treatments for frown lines, facial muscle tone, and elasticity are among the many skin rejuvenation and anti-aging procedures available today. Facial acupuncture has recently become popular as a skin rejuvenation treatment.

Acupuncture on the head, face, and neck for aesthetic purposes is known as facial acupuncture. Many plausible mechanisms underpinning face acupuncture have been hypothesized, including boosting or balancing Qi, balancing internal Zang-Fu organs, improving blood flow by putting needles at certain acupoints, and increasing muscle tone.

Sticking needles in one's face isn't new in the world of beauty and health treatments. However, although microneedling has just recently gained popularity as a must-have beauty procedure, acupuncture has been used in China for millennia. Acupuncture, particularly facial acupuncture, has recently gained popularity as a treatment for those seeking to manage chronic diseases, aid in the healing of the body, or even give their faces a change.

The theory in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) is that the body has meridians or energy channels via which life energy or Qi travels throughout the organs and limbs, carrying out the body's everyday functions. Problems in this energy flow, according to this technique, are what produce disease or suffering. Acupuncture, or the insertion of thin needles into various locations along these meridians, is supposed to bring balance to the flow of energy in the body.
