Let's dive into our most booked cosmetic treatment type: Cosmetic Acupuncture


Cosmetic Acupuncture at Serenity Holistic Health

Cosmetic Acupuncture offers a gentle, holistic approach to skin health - It will have you looking & feeling your best while supporting your skin’s natural vitality!


Here are just a few benefits of receiving cosmetic acupuncture:


  • Improves blood flow: The facial acupuncture increases circulation & supports skin cell renewal by delivering nutrients & removing waste/toxin buildup for vibrant looking skin. When your skin doesn’t have good blood flow - It can lead to skin sagging, dryness, puffiness, slower healing & uneven skin tone. Keeping your blood flow strong allows for plump skin & a radiant glow! 


  • Improves collagen & elastin: Collagen & elastin are proteins produced in the dermal layer of the skin, the deeper middle layer - Which keeps the skin firm, smooth & elastic. These proteins naturally decrease as we age; causing wrinkles, thin skin & sagging. The dermal layer needs to be reached in order to stimulate collagen & elastin production. This is accomplished with the penetration of acupuncture needles, causing what is called "micro-traumas" to the skin and it results in skin healing & increased cell production. Cosmetic topicals can still be helpful for skin hydration, but they typically don’t reach the dermal layer - Which is why acupuncture is so important!


  • Reduces facial tension: We have dozens of tiny muscles in our face - They are constantly being used as we talk, eat, make facial expressions, etc. So, it’s common to get a lot of built up facial tension! The acupuncture needles are placed in facial muscles to relax the overworked muscles & reduce inflammation in those areas. Tight facial muscles contribute to wrinkles - Cosmetic acupuncture not only feels good, but it has significant anti-aging benefits!


  • Fine line reduction: While cosmetic acupuncture can help reduce wrinkles, it is unlikely that wrinkles will fully disappear. The goal of cosmetic acupuncture is slowing down wrinkle production & aging skin. This is accomplished by stimulating skin cells to produce collagen & increase blood flow, both are necessary components for reducing fine lines. 


  • Overall energy balance: Cosmetic acupuncture benefits more than just your face - It supports the whole body’s natural healing abilities, hormonal balance, and qi & blood flow throughout the meridians.


What Can I Expect for My Cosmetic Acupuncture Appointment?


Each appointment is tailored to you! Your appointment will begin with a skin evaluation & intake of your goals with our licensed acupuncturist.


Very thin & flexible needles are used for cosmetic acupuncture, which will be inserted in various facial places & left for up to 30 minutes.


Additional modalities - Facial cupping, gua sha, or Celluma LED light therapy - are frequently used to enhance the treatment.


If you are seeking to optimize your results, we typically recommend a series of (10) treatments - Either (2) sessions per week over (5) weeks or once per week for (10) weeks. Ideally, this would be followed up with a monthly maintenance session to sustain the results.

Cosmetic acupuncture isn’t a “quick fix” like Botox, it’s a slower & more intentional process with long-lasting effects.
