"I never quite thought I would say one of my favorite times is when I book a session with Elly. She is such an amazing practitioner, she listens to you in such a caring and thoughtful way. I was blown away with her knowledge and how intuitive Elly is when performing treatments."

How Does Acupuncture Help?
Anti-aging acupuncture creates beautifying benefits over time. Lifting, smoothing, reducing lines, puffiness or dryness, and balancing complexions are always our goals! But with body acupuncture given alongside facial treatments, individualised to specific needs, we are going deeper than the skin.
Acupuncture activates the nervous system to help:
Sedate and control period and pelvic pain.
Thermoregulation.
Regulate the menstrual cycle.
Regulate hormone imbalances and sensitivities.
Relieve unpleasant symptoms.
Encourage your body to self regulate and heal.
What Conditions Can Acupuncture Help with?
Your acupuncturist will asses your face and whole body for areas that need support, understanding that one foundation of natural facial beauty, is whole-body wellness. Facial cosmetic acupuncture:
Stimulates fibroblast activity to initiate collagen induction
Restores correct facial muscle tone to lift, contour, and improve skin elasticity
Reduces dryness by increasing water and oil content in the skin
Softens and minimises fine lines and furrows
Evens out complexion
Causes subcision (leveling out) of sunken acne or other scars
Body, mind and face
In facial acupuncture we are improving beauty on the inside to level-up that glowing complexion on the outside! Working to support gut health, hormone balance, and soothing stressed minds; cosmetic acupuncture is for the body, mind, and face, all in one relaxing hit!
Like many good things, facial cosmetic acupuncture takes time to get great results.
People do notice changes early on, but for optimal results with longer lasting outcomes, a course of 6-10 treatments is required and is advised taken at weekly intervals. After this, coming in regularly or semi-regularly for a treatment helps to hold on to the benefits longer.
For some people’s skin, after around 24 months a further short course is recommended to work deeply into the face tensions and lines again.
Will facial acupuncture hurt?
Facial Cosmetic and anti-aging acupuncture is a very relaxing experience.
It surprises women how little pain they experience and that they leave feeling relaxed and deeply calm. This, of course, plays out in great ways throughout their week, and they look forward to their next, much-needed wind down on the acupuncture table.
