More and
more, women and men too, are looking for a natural face-lift, that
is, a way to maintain their youthful looking facial skin, naturally.
Face-lifts using surgery, or cosmetic face-lifts using products such
as Botox injections, are being replaced at least in part, by natural
methods
Acupuncture uses acupuncture points, located all over the body to
stimulate the body’s own energy. Each point has specific actions,
but can also have complex interactions when used together with other
acupuncture points.

During acupuncture treatments, the insertion of needles into the facial skin stimulates
natural collagen production,
which plumps out and firms the skin. Acupuncture face lift results include better muscle tone and
jaw line definition, a decrease in lines and
wrinkles.
Acupuncture is thought to have
originated in China and is most commonly
associated with Traditional Chinese
Medicine (TCM). Different types of
acupuncture (Classical Chinese,
Japanese, Tibetan, and Korean
acupuncture) are practiced and taught
throughout the world.
For starters, it must be stated
that an acupuncture face lift is in no way a substitute for
a standard invasive facelift procedure. Acupuncture is a
great alternative to a surgical procedure, but the outcome
may very greatly from person to person and may not improve
excessively sagging or drooping skin.
An acupuncture facelift is a
painless alternative that has no side effects at all and is
very safe with no real possibilities of complications. Due
to the trauma created by a surgical facelift, the recovery
time can be more than two weeks, while an acupuncture face
lift has no recovery period. There will also be no swelling,
discoloration or any bruising.
