Chinese medicine x cosmetic acupuncture
Using Chinese medicine theory and acupuncture; start a transformation from the inside as well as the outside. Acupuncturists are trained to focus on root causes of imbalances and our aim is to target key areas and symptoms. Utilising a mix of body acupuncture and more structural and targeted facial acupuncture – this is the perfect mix for an enhanced facial treatment. So you leave feeling more balanced and glowy all in one.
Facial Enhancement Acupuncture (FEA) or facial rejuvenation is a natural alternative compared to more invasive cosmetic surgery or aesthetic procedures. It can be used as a stand alone treatment or work alongside your other cosmetic procedures.
FACIALENHANCE® practitioners have gained certification in cosmetic Acupuncture and the treatment has been established since 2004 and is practised worldwide. Promoted as an anti-ageing, non-surgical facelift and skin revitalising treatment. It works by promoting blood and lymph circulation in the face which encourages new production of elastin and collagen through new cells.

- A gentle cleanse to remove impurities on the face
- Fine sterile needles will then be inserted into specific points and areas on the face. Some needles are used in a structural way and other dermal needles are threaded into fine lines and wrinkles. Incorporating some head, neck and body points at this stage is normal.
