"After only 2 treatments from Heidi, I already noticed improvements. My dog jowls lifted and the lines around my mouth began to fade. I'm amazed by the results!" Leticia Mazerone, 31 yo
"I was very comfortable once the needles were all in. While Heidi left me to relax I would fall asleep or meditate and was very relaxed for hours afterwards. The best part is the facial massage at the end, it feels so soothing and my face loved it. After 5 sessions I could notice a difference around my eyes and I will definitely go back for more. Thankyou, Heidi." Deborah

Why choose AcuLift facial rejuvenation acupuncture over surgery or injections?
No scars and no risk of disfigurement.
No recovery period as compared to weeks for surgical facelift.
Results are more subtle and natural looking so you won’t look artificial.
No possibility of drug interaction. Injections can react adversely to common medications including antibiotics, heart medications, Alzheimer’s drugs, anti-inflammatories such as aspirin, vitamin E, and multivitamins.
Side effects are rare – most common is local bruising. Side effects of surgery and injections are relatively frequent and serious compared to acupuncture.
How Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture Works
The needles inserted into the face affect collagen and elastin production and dispersal. Collagen is a protein responsible for our skin’s durability and resilience. Elastin is responsible for the elasticity of skin. Sun exposure and aging degrade and decrease the production of our collagen and elastin. Acupuncture helps to stimulate the body’s natural processes of cell reproduction and growth.
What can I expect during the first treatment?
Upon your first visit, your overall health will be assessed by the acupuncturist so that he/she may determine how to balance your body to best support the results of your skin lift. You will then receive a body acupuncture treatment to deeply relax you and prepare your body for the face treatment. Next, the facial acupuncture treatment is administered. The points used help to lift the eyes, cheeks, and jowls, eliminate fine lines, soften wrinkles, and give your skin an overall glow. The facial acupoints may also improve digestion, relieve stress and anxiety, promote peaceful sleep, and improve hearing and vision. At that point, you relax to peaceful music for 20 minutes while the acupuncture treatment takes effect.
Upon completion of the acupuncture treatment, you are completely relaxed and your skin is glowing. Most patients express that they don't need to wear makeup after their treatment because their skin looks so beautiful.
Your acupuncturist will also discuss lifestyle changes, supplements and customized Chinese herbs that may be taken throughout the course of your treatment. The supplements and herbs optimize the end results and improve your overall health so the results are lasting. After all, your skin is a reflection of your internal health.
You also receive complimentary customized organic skin care products hand blended with medicinal Chinese herbs to be used throughout the duration of your program. A good skin care routine with quality products is essential for maintaining healthy and young-looking skin.
How quickly will I see results?
Results can be seen as quickly as after the first treatment. Among 300 cases treated with facial acupuncture, 90% had marked beneficial results with only one course of treatment (International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture, 1996).
