Cosmetic Acupuncture in Adelaide- Natural Facial Rejuvenation
Cosmetic acupuncture is a natural, non-invasive treatment that nourishes, refreshes and relaxes your facial muscles. This can make you look better, younger and more radiant. By increasing blood circulation and collagen production, it helps your skin look firmer, brighter, and more youthful- without harsh chemicals or procedures.
Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments have been used in ancient China by royalty for thousands of years. It was mainly sought out by the Emperor’s concubines in order to maintain beauty and gain higher rank in the palace. It involves inserting single use, sterile needles at specific acupoints on the face. During cosmetic acupuncture treatments, your natural collagen and elastin production increases because of the micro stimulation of the needles. Your Collagen tightens the existing fibres making the face skin more elastic and smooth with minimised lines. Cosmetic acupuncture is an efficient way to reduce wrinkles and maintain a healthier and younger looking skin.

A normal course of acupuncture consists of 12 to 20 sessions. It’s natural so it takes longer to build up the effectiveness and the results lasts. For some, the results last up to a couple of years. Each cosmetic acupuncture session takes 30 to 45 minutes. In each session, Julie Zhu will choose needles in different length and width according to individual’s skin condition and needs. Broadly, thinner needles are chosen if a client is asking for healthier and glamorous skin. Alternatively, slightly thicker needles are chosen if a client needs for a face lift or rejuvenation.
