Cosmestic Acupuncture
Cosmetic acupuncture, or facial rejuvenation. Acupuncture stimulates circulation, increases collagen production, improves muscle tone and hydration, and reduces puffiness to ultimately improve your skins texture, tone and elasticity.
Using Gua Sha, Jade rollers and the insertion of specialist ultra-thin needles into specific points on the face, Julia works to improve the overall appearance of the skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, tighten sagging skin, and promote a more youthful, refreshed complexion.
It is based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which views health and beauty as reflections of balance within the body’s energy pathways. Cosmetic acupuncture is often sought as a natural alternative or complement to cosmetic procedures like Botox or fillers. Julia offers a natural, safe, and effective alternative for achieving youthful and vibrant skin and to radiate timeless beauty.
