During a cosmetic acupuncture treatment, ultra-fine needles are inserted into specific points on the face and body. You may feel a slight sensation as the needles are inserted, but most people find the treatment to be painless and relaxing. After the needles are inserted, you will lie comfortably for about 15-20  minutes while the needles work their magic. During this time we will use LED light therapy to enhance results.   After the removal of the needles, you will receive a facial Gua Sha massage for about 15 minutes and you will feel rejuvenated and relaxed.  After the treatment, you may notice an immediate improvement in your skin, but the full results will become more apparent after a series of treatments.
To prepare for a cosmetic acupuncture session:
  • Avoid wearing makeup on the day of your appointment
  • Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water
  • Arrive at your appointment well-rested  
  • Wear comfortable clothing
Red Tree offers an array of traditional Chinese medicine and Homeopathy services to help you achieve balance and harmony in your life. If you're new to acupuncture and homeopathy here's a comprehensive guide on how to prepare for your first treatment at Red Tree.
Choose Comfortable Clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing to your appointment. Acupuncture often involves accessing points on various body parts, so it's essential to wear attire that allows easy access to these areas.
Eat Lightly: Having a light meal before your appointment is best. Avoid eating a heavy meal or consuming alcohol immediately beforehand, as this may affect your body's response to the treatment.

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water leading up to your appointment. Hydration can help improve the effectiveness of acupuncture and minimize any potential discomfort during the session.
Communicate with Your Practitioner: During your initial consultation, be open and honest with your acupuncturist about your health concerns, medical history, and any medications or supplements you're currently taking. This information will help them tailor the treatment to your specific needs.
Manage Expectations: Keep an open mind and manage your expectations. Acupuncture and Homeopathy are holistic therapies that work differently for everyone. While some people experience immediate relief, others may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results.
Follow Aftercare Instructions: After your acupuncture treatment, your practitioner may provide you with specific instructions (prescription of homeopathic remedies, dietary advice, lifestyle advice etc). Follow these recommendations carefully to maximize the benefits of your session and promote healing.
Stay Consistent: Consistency is key when it comes to acupuncture. You may need multiple sessions to experience significant improvements depending on your health goals. Stick to your treatment plan and schedule follow-up appointments as your acupuncturist recommends.
At Red Tree, we are committed to providing personalized care and support to help you achieve optimal health and wellness. By following these simple steps, you can prepare yourself for a positive and transformative experience. We look forward to guiding you on your journey to greater well-being.
Cosmetic acupuncture works by stimulating the body's natural healing response and promoting blood circulation to the face. This process increases the flow of nutrients and oxygen to the skin, helping to improve its overall health and appearance. Additionally, acupuncture can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that contribute to skin elasticity and firmness.
Cosmetic acupuncture offers numerous benefits, including:
  • Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Improvement of skin texture and tone
  • Increase in collagen production
  • Reduction of puffiness and under-eye circles
  • Overall relaxation and stress reduction
  • Safe and natural approach to beauty
The number of sessions required will vary depending on your individual goals and skin condition. Generally, a series of 7-10 treatments, scheduled weekly or bi-weekly, is recommended for optimal results. After the initial series, maintenance sessions may be suggested to prolong the benefits.
