Our skilled facial cosmetic acupuncture practitioners in Whittier are highly skilled and trained in the science and art of acupuncture therapy, facial anatomy, and skin physiology. We understand skin, especially aging or “hormonal” skin! We know that both topical treatments and healthy lifestyle practices are necessary to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, revive dull complexions, restore lost volume, and minimize dark circles under the eyes. Truly, external beauty stems from internal wellness.

What does acupuncture do to the face?

Korean cosmetic acupuncture works wonders on the face by using super fine, sterilized needles to subtly work beneath the skin, stimulating key areas to rejuvenate your complexion. This method enhances muscle flexibility, boosts circulation, and brings balance to your body’s energy paths, leading to brighter, tighter skin. It’s also a gateway to boosting collagen, improving skin elasticity, and tackling issues like dryness, uneven tones, scars, and acne. This approach is recognized in Whittier and surrounding areas as the most organic way to uncover your skin’s inherent glow and strength.

How does cosmetic acupuncture work?

Facial cosmetic acupuncture works by strategically placing 40 to 70 small, virtually painless needles around your face, neck, and scalp. These gently pierce the skin, creating what is known as positive microtraumas. These tiny “wounds” kickstart your body’s natural healing process, known for its brightening and anti-aging effects. As with microneedling but significantly gentler, each session usually involves 50 precise punctures. These stimulate your lymphatic and circulatory systems, thereby nourishing your skin from the inside out by delivering nutrients and oxygen.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's a cosmetic acupuncture session like?

When you come in for Korean facial acupuncture in Whittier, CA it all starts with a comprehensive chat. Your practitioner will want to know about how you’re eating, sleeping, and feeling overall—things like your digestion, menstrual cycle, energy levels, and diet.

This helps them understand the connection between your current physical and mental state and your skin’s health, whether you’re dealing with puffiness, fine lines, or acne. Based on this conversation, our acupuncturist will tailor your treatment specifically for you.

What are the benefits of cosmetic acupuncture?

Cosmetic acupuncture boasts a plethora of benefits, but here are some of the most common ones:

  • Boosts collagen production: One of the standout benefits is its ability to stimulate collagen production, which is crucial for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and improving skin elasticity.
  • Improves skin elasticity: Regular sessions can lead to tighter skin and enhanced elasticity, contributing to a more youthful appearance.
  • Reduces acne and scarring: It can also diminish inflammation and promote the healing of acne and scars, improving skin texture.
  • Evens out skin tone: By addressing the root causes of skin imbalances, it can help achieve a more uniform skin tone and reduce redness.

Who is cosmetic acupuncture for?

Anyone who desires a holistic and functional approach to health and beauty is a good fit. However, if you’ve recently gone for Botox or fillers, it’s best to hold off for at least two weeks before getting this treatment. This little break lets any swelling from the procedures go down and gives the Botox time to settle in fully. And if you’re expecting, it’s wise to have a chat with your doctor before exploring facial cosmetic acupuncture.

If you have a blood clotting disorder or take blood thinners, it’s important for you to first have a chat with our specialist in K-cosmetic acupuncture.

How many facial acupuncture sessions do I need?

Typically, you’ll start seeing results after about five sessions of Korean facial acupuncture here at our center in Whittier.

However, many clients report a noticeable glow and brighter skin after just the first visit. We recommend going through a series of five to ten sessions, scheduling them either weekly or every other week. Coming in for maintenance every four to six weeks is a great way to maintain the results.
