Cosmetic acupuncture, also known as facial acupuncture or facial rejuvenation acupuncture, is a holistic approach to skincare that has gained popularity in recent years. This ancient Chinese therapy involves the insertion of tiny needles into specific points on the face to stimulate circulation, promote collagen production, and improve muscle tone. By targeting these points, cosmetic acupuncture aims to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin while enhancing overall complexion and radiance.
