What is cosmetic acupuncture?
Cosmetic acupuncture is an natural cosmetic treatment based on the ancient philosophy of Chinese medicine. It’s an alternative to other harsh cosmetic treatments such as botox/collagen injections, fillers, micro-dermabrasion, photo rejuvenation and chemical peels.
cosmetic acupuncture is designed to reverse the signs of ageing through a natural, painless and non-toxic method. unlike other methods this unique treatment is able to treat the body internally and externally, giving you a healthy glow that other methods can’t match!
How does it work?
Cosmetic acupuncture can help increase collagen production by painlessly inserting fine needles into specific points of the face, neck and head. These points are able to stimulate skin cells and promote blood circulation which in turn increases the production of collagen and elastin.
Acupuncture helps increase blood supply to the face which assists by tightening pores, increasing muscle tone and improving facial colour giving a rosey like appearance. Cosmetic Acupuncture also increases your lymphatic circulation which can help clear your skin from toxins and fluid retention.
At Zenas Natural Therapy each patient is given a personalised treatment for their skin condition. A consultation is given before the treatment which includes an overall medical history, pulse-taking and an examination of facial features.
The key difference between Cosmetic Acupuncture and other cosmetic treatments is that it aims to treat the underlying condition that is causing issues with your skin. Because boosting your inner health can reflect dramatically on your skin !

What is involved in the treatment?
A medical history is taken of the patient in order to direct the treatment towards the patients concerns.
We begin the treatment by cleansing and massaging the face in order to relax and purify the skin. Acupuncture is then applied to the body and face depending on the patient’s main concerns.
Jade rollers are used to cool down the skin, tighten pores and increase muscle tone. Organic essential oils such as; Rosip, Q10, vitamin E, rose and jojoba are applied to assist in rejuvenating skin cell production. facial cupping is then applied to increase blood circulation and oxygen supply to the face.
We finish off by applying an organic hydrating skin lotion with light acupressure massage to relax the mind, body and spirit.
Patients often notice a fresh glow and even skintone in their face after the treatment. they also feel relaxed and energised after the session. Results will improve daily as new collagen cells are created.
Treatments are recomended weekly for best results. We also recomend between 10-12 sessions to achieve best results for your skin and body.
