Our face reflects our inner body

The times that we feel healthy and vibrant or the times when we feel tired or under the weather, it can be noticeable to ourselves and others by just looking at our face. Facial acupuncture has been used for thousands of years in China to naturally enhance wellbeing and appearance. Very fine needles are used in acupuncture points on the face and body to improve the flow of blood and qi by balancing the body and bringing vitality to the face.

This in turn promotes the repair and regeneration of the skin. It can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, crows feet, frown lines, smile lines, acne scarring as well as relaxing muscles that contract to cause lines such as those on the forehead. Skin can look clearer with improved colour and muscle tone and puffiness is reduced. The treatment is followed by relaxing facial massage which may including gua sha or light facial cupping.

Results can be seen after one treatment but research shows that 10 sessions can give longer lasting results followed by maintenance treatments.

From ancient needling to modern advanced needling techniques with the Dermapen

DERMAPEN

Dermapen is an advanced needling technology system which moves smoothly across the skin creating multiple channels through high speed, fine needles that injure the skin and immediately stimulate the skin’s natural collagen production and repair process. The healing of the skin happens almost immediately but the repair processes where your body creates, new, strong and healthy collagen will continue over the next 4-6 weeks.

During this treatment Dermapen can very effectively help to deliver advanced mesotherapy products tailored to your skin’s needs. These active products can target both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin. Because the Dermapen enables faster absorption of these topical active nutrients, the natural healing process of skin resurfacing works faster and there is little downtime with this treatment which is a great dvantage

You can expect a full consultation before treatment to assess your skin, any contraindications to treatment and your treatment plan. Typically a Dermapen treatment schedule would be 4-6 treatments, 6-8 weeks apart, followed by maintenance.

Dermapen can help many skin problems, including signs of ageing – fine lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity and poor skin tone, acne scarring. It can help skin to look smoother, brighter with a more toned, even complexion.

Acupuncture and Dermapen treatment packages can also be created to ensure optimum treatment for your skin.
