Converted Skeptic for Cosmetic acupuncture

Facial Acupuncture techniques
. . . can take 5-10 years off your appearance?!

I must admit that when I first heard of , and all other names that it goes by, I was a skeptic. I was in acupuncture school at that time and immediately thought that the popularity of the seminars teaching these techniques was just a means to get us, acupuncture students & practitioners, to pay more money for Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) and to buy into something "new." I didn't doubt acupuncture's ability to take care of the body from within, but I just didn't know if such a technique could really make a noticeable difference in one's facial appearance.

With my healthy dose of skepticism, I began observing those who took the seminars, asking questions, and watching the results on individuals who participated in the facial acupuncture sessions. I began to see interesting results from these sessions; not only did the patients consistently express how their skin felt better—tighter and firmer, yet more supple in texture and less dry—but had a more even tone. I thought that maybe it was the lighting in which we were looking at their faces, but that didn't seem to be the case. Even discolorations seem to fade during the initial treatments. And as the sessions progressed, the fine lines and wrinkles diminished; again, I thought it was me just trying to look for these changes, but it wasn't. There were noticeable differences in wrinkles and lines!

Cosmetic surgery facelifts vs Acupuncture "facelifts"

Anti-aging acupuncture certainly will not yield results like cosmetic surgery facelifts, nor was it my expectation (nor should it be anyone's expectation) that this would be the case. At the same time, acupuncture "facelifts" do not involve incisions nor lengthy recovery times hidden behind bandages, redness and swelling. In fact, patients walk out of the office feeling refreshed and always comment on their "glow."

Natural anti-aging therapy

For those who know me, I will do my "homework" before jumping into something. And applying Cosmetic acupuncture with has converted me from a skeptic to a proponent of this natural anti-aging, non-invasive, cost effective and safe means to stay healthy and look younger at the same time! I know, there are numerous skeptics out there and all I can do is to encourage you to come in and try it for yourself.
