What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting fine needles into specific points on the body. These points are believed to be connected to pathways called meridians, through which vital energy, or Qi, flows. By stimulating these points, acupuncture aims to restore balance and flow of Qi, promoting healing and wellness.

For optimal results, it is recommended to undergo one treatment per week for a cycle of four sessions. To achieve long-lasting effects, a minimum of two cycles (eight sessions) is advised. Facial Cosmetic Acupuncture can also be used in conjunction with Botox treatments, provided that at least one week has passed since your last Botox session.

Glowing Skin: Expect a radiant, refreshed complexion after each session.
Mild Redness: You might experience slight redness due to increased circulation, which will subside within a few hours.
Potential Sensitivity: Some areas might feel raised or sensitive, which is a positive sign of the treatment engaging your skin’s healing process.
-
Before Your Session: Avoid wearing makeup and ensure you’ve had a meal and sufficient water before your treatment.
Post-Treatment Care: Use a jade roller or guasha for maintenance, and let us know if you have specific skincare needs.

There is a small risk of bruising in the area getting treated.
Needling can trigger the immune system which can cause a possible cold sore outbreak. If you have medication for it, start taking it a week before treatment.
Try to avoid any other cosmetic procedures during the course of FCA sessions as it can interfere or create side effects.

Yes! If you are getting Botox, I highly recommend getting FCA in between your sessions. Facial cosmetic acupuncture can be used in conjunction with Botox treatments to enhance their effects and promote longer-lasting results. Reducing muscle tension and promoting relaxation, can complement the effects of Botox in reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Please wait at least 1 week minimum after Botox before starting any FCA treatments.
