COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE
Maara has certification in the Mei Zen Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture System with Dr. Martha Lucas and advanced training with Michelle Ellis L.Ac. Cosmetic acupuncture is a natural and effective approach to rejuvenate your skin’s vitality and reduce the visible signs of ageing. It is a safe alternative to botox, surgery, chemical peels and injections without the harmful side effects. It naturally smoothes and tightens the skin by stimulating collagen production and elastin proteins. Ultra-thin needles improve blood flow, lymphatic drainage and skin cell micro-circulation helping to relax tension in the face, improve muscle tone, lift sagging, decrease wrinkles and eliminate fine lines.
Treatments are based on a Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnosis and can also help to improve anxiety, sleep, digestive issues and whole body balance. Treatments address the forehead, eyes, cheeks, mouth and jowl area. The neck protocol additionally focuses on sagging around the jawline, neck and décolletage. Treatments include an organic facial cleanse, guasha and jade roller massage.
Cosmetic acupuncture has a cumulative effect and treatments are best applied in a series of 6-10 individual treatments at a frequency of 1-2 times per week. After this, monthly maintenance appointments are encouraged.
