Acupuncture and Facelifts
To many people's surprise, acupuncture and Chinese medicine can provide a safe, effective, natural, and painless approach to reduce signs of aging.  Acupuncture facelifts focus on improving muscle tone of the face and neck, while treating underlying imbalances that contribute to the aging process.
 
Why do muscles and skin sag?
Wrinkles begin internally from a weakness and imbalance of Qi.  Qi circulates within a series of pathways called Meridians, which travel throughout the entire body including the face.  These meridians provide nourishment and energy to all organ systems, muscles, and skin.
 
Wrinkles don't just appear overnight.
As we get older, Qi has more difficulty flowing upward to "lift" the face.  This leads to inadequate muscle tone, and over time, wrinkles and sagging skin.  This imbalance can occur in a variety ways:  from poor diet, digestion, or circulation, or from emotional and environmental stress.
 
Acupuncture can give you a "natural" face-lift by strengthening and stimulating the circulation of Qi within your meridian pathways, especially those on your face.  It can also help to improve skin and muscle tone while enhancing and increasing the elasticity of the skin.  You will look energetic, calm, vibrant, and healthy.
 
Before you consider using drugs or surgery to improve your appearance, consider this safe, effective, natural, and painless alternative.
 
Your acupuncture treatments may be combined with herbal supplements, exercise, and acupressure.  Together, these therapies can improve your overall beauty, health, and well being.
