What should I expect during a cosmetic acupuncture treatment?

manager2024-03-05T13:36:11+02:00During 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.
