What is it?
Facial Enhancement has been practiced in China for thousands of years. It is Acupuncture on points of the face to stimulate the meridians and therefore improve muscle tone and skin contraction, this in turn helps to eliminate fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment also reduces the sagging jowls and helps to eliminate puffiness by improving the metabolism – the skin circulation is greatly improved, and this helps even out color tone and tightens the pores.
Dr. Brittani has also had great success using facial enhancement acupuncture for treating acne and acne scars on the face.
As the treatment is natural and is working with the body’s energy, the patient will feel revitalized all over and their general sense of well-being will be improved – this is a fantastic alternative to medical and chemical treatments.
Does it hurt?
The needles that are used for Acupuncture are very fine disposable needles. There is very little sensation when needled with them and only a mild stinging sensation may be experienced on some occasions. In fact, the whole experience is very relaxing.
