About Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture (FRA) for Skin Tightening, Natural, Non-Surgical Face Lift (may also be referred to as cosmetic acupuncture) 

Picture
Like the history of acupuncture, Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture has been used in China, especially by the imperial family for looking young and staying young for more than 2000 years.

Acupuncture for Facelift or we can call it Cosmetic Acupuncture is a non-surgical procedure that will helps to rejuvenate and revitalize your face. It is a much cheaper solution compared to surgical facelift and it has no side-effects and downtime at all.

Our face has meridian points that can be stimulated by using short acupuncture needles (Mei Rong Zhen) that will improve the facial blood circulation. Good blood circulation will generate energy flow which will helps to tone up the facial muscles and at the same time helps to slow down aging process. Cosmetic acupuncture thus is a very effective way to diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sagging and dull skin.
