This is more than just a skin deep treatment! Our treatments are evidence based and completed by an AHPRA registered Chinese Herbalist and Acupuncturist and include:
Using the finest acupuncture needles on the face, we target specific muscle groups to induce collagen production, increase elastin, lift sagging lines and soften tense facial muscles.
Facial cupping lifts muscles, drains fluid attributed to bloating and swelling and increases blood and nutrient flow to the face. During the treatment this helps increase texture
Professional Gua Sha facial massage to release tension, tone and improve circulation.
We use pure hyaluronic acid hydration serum during the massage and a special blend of natural essential oils to boost the skins natural hydration ability

Cosmetic acupuncture improves facial elasticity
Facial cosmetic acupuncture (FCA) results in improvement of objective measures of facial elasticity, a Korean pilot study suggests. Twenty-seven women aged 40 to 59 with signs of advanced skin aging, completed five FCA treatment sessions over three weeks. The total number of needle insertions per treatment ranged from 100 to 110. The primary outcome assessed was the amount of sagging of the cheek and side of the mouth. A significant improvement was seen after FCA treatment.
