If addressing complaints is acupuncture’s specialty than cosmetic improvements are right up its alley; it can improve skin quality, help heal acne and acne scars while promoting collagen production which in turn help treat and prevent the signs of aging.

“The fine lines and wrinkles in our upper face are created by repetitive motion” says Cassandra Warren, L. Ac.

“Think of a piece of paper, smooth and flawless, much like our faces at birth. But with repeated use, folding and crinkling, or in our case, the repeated use of facial expressions, you start to see near permanent effects as you would folds and creases in a piece of paper.”

“My technique tightens and lifts the face much like a face lift. The applied mask and microcurrent are used to stimulate ATP production so that the body has the energy and building blocks it needs to rejuvenate and replenish the facial tissue.”

ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is an energy carrying molecule that naturally occurs in all living things. It powers cellular processes, acting as a channel delivering energy to places within the cell where energy-consuming activities are taking place. In this case, targeting the cells that create collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin to reduce and reverse the signs of aging.

When compared to traditional Botox products, the effects aren’t as instantaneous. However, Cassandra Warren, L. Ac assures that her technique provides longer lasting results with while turning back time slowly, gracefully and more naturally.

 

Treatment plans are customized based on the age of your skin with full results being achieved in anywhere from 10 to 20 treatments. And if the aesthetic benefits weren’t enough, acupuncture comes with a laundry list of wonderful side effects that come into play regardless of what is being treated; including better sleep, reduced anxiety, and an overall better sense of peace and well being.
