Facial & Cosmetic Acupuncture in Los Angeles

Cindy Albon is certified in Constitutional Facial Rejuvenation and Cosmetic Acupuncture Procedures. Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture is a natural anti-aging treatment that helps skin look younger, smoother, brighter and provides a natural face lift.

Cosmetic Acupuncture is a great alternative for individuals who want a holistic approach to looking younger while improving their overall health. It is safe, natural and effective alternative to Botox or plastic surgery with less risk, less expense and without the post-treatment downtime. Appearance changes are natural, not as drastic or sudden as with surgery. It is a great choice for actors, models, musicians and other public professionals, who need to avoid recovery time and prefer a natural look.

How does facial acupuncture work?

Your internal state of health is reflected on your face. Cosmetic Acupuncture is a dual treatment – it is a regular acupuncture plus facial session. Body points are needled to correct any health issues, reduce stress and promote well-being. If you feel good on the inside, you will look better on the outside!

Special points are selected on the face, neck, scalp and along the hairline to lift and firm. The insertion of tiny intra-dermal needles within wrinkles and lines simulates micro trauma which stimulates elastin and collagen production. Facial acupuncture treatments increase the flow of Qi and blood circulation to the face while simultaneously correcting health imbalances in the body.

Your facial sessions will start with the body points to anchor your energy. Organic cleansers or toners will be selected for your skin type to prepare your face for acupuncture. After the facial acupuncture, lavender or oxygenated water finishes each treatment to enhance hydration and provide a dewy glow. Arnica will be applied to prevent bruising.

Facial massage with Gua Sha board, jade or dermal rollers may be used with organic serums and oils to firm the neck, contour jawline and provide a natural lift.

Everyone has unique needs and you may only require a few sessions vs a full course. We can determine this on your first visit during the consultation.

Facial results usually last up to 5 or more years, depending on your age, lifestyle and constitution. Some patients opt for a second course of facial acupuncture to gain additional, longer lasting results.
