Celebrities who are known for their holistic tendencies, such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna, are said to be fans of the minimally painful treatment. Some of the results can include reduction of wrinkles and discoloration over time.
While some spas have named the treatment an “acupuncture facelift” on their service menus, this is not condoned by the American Cosmetic Acupuncture Association (ACAA). The ACAA warns that this terminology give clients an unrealistic expectation of the actual results. While the AACA recommends extended acupuncture treatment in order to see desired results, clinical studies have already shown acupuncture to have positive effects on the skin.
Acupuncture originated in China thousands of years ago and has gained popularity in the U.S. over the past three decades. Besides it's cosmetic benefits, acupuncture is used to treat a large variety of medical problems including asthma, depression, sinusitis, fatigue and low energy. Acupuncture can also reduce pain, swelling and bruising after surgery also. Treatments are surprisingly comfortable an sometimes take just a few minutes. For your safety, I recommend that you seek a certified and experienced acupuncturist for your treatment.
