Acupuncture facials focus on enhancing the skin's appearance and promoting overall facial health. Facial acupuncture stimulates blood circulation, stimulates collagen production, reduces inflammation, and can both relax and help tone facial muscles. The result is improved skin tone and texture, softening of deep wrinkles, and reduction of puffiness and sagging. Compared to Microneedling Facials, Acupuncture Facials target specific areas of the face.

Acupuncture facials also aim to address underlying imbalances that may contribute to skin issues. Stress, poor sleep, digestive issues, allergies, and hormonal imbalances affect facial health and appearance. Orthopedic Alternatives' Acupuncture Facials include wellness acupuncture, which refers to traditional acupuncture on the body to improve the body's health. Wellness acupuncture focuses on health improvement to support beauty, whereas medical acupuncture is focused health improvement to treat pain or functional concerns.

Service includes an herbal cleanse, pearl exfoliation, facial lymph massage, jade gua sha, facial acupuncture, wellness (body) acupuncture, and Chinese herbal mask.

An Acupuncture Facial will leave you relaxed and radiant. Maximum facial rejuvenation is achieved with a series of 10-12 Acupuncture Facials over 2-3 months, then maintained with monthly or seasonal tune-ups. Combine with Microneedling or Acupuncture to further enhance results.

Look and feel your best with powerful natural results.

 

​Choosing Between Acupuncture Facial Rejuvenation and Microneedling 

You don't have to choose, you can do both! Considerations include your treatment goals and timeline. If your main concern is a specific area or wrinkle, start with an Acupuncture Facial. If your main concern is overall texture or tone, start with Microneedling. Microneedling produces results with monthly treatment, whereas Acupuncture Facials should be done weekly to achieve best results. Combine them both for the best and fastest results.

 

While an individual treatment will leave you relaxed and radiant, the most significant and lasting results are achieved with at least 3 months of focused care. Your epidermis entirely regenerates every1-3 months, so the greatest impact is seen when services are scheduled as follows:

• Combo: 1 Microneedling + 3 Acupuncture Facials per month for 3 months

• Acupuncture Facials: 4 per month for 3-4 months

• Microneedling: 1 per month for 4-12 months

​

Both Acupuncture Facials and Microneedling can be enjoyed as a stand-alone pampering service anytime, and both include:
• Herbal wash and facial lymphatic massage
• Body acupuncture to promote wellness and support skin health
• Herbal facial masks with Chinese medicine ingredients
• 90-minute sessions focused on natural, sustainable results

Here’s how they differ:

 

Acupuncture Facial

• Best for: Targeted concerns (deep wrinkles, puffiness, dullness, sagging)

• Treatment regime for maximum results:10–15 treatments over 3–4 months

• Scheduling / Aftercare: Schedule at least 1 week after microneedling or 2 weeks after any peels/Botox.

Microneedling 

• Best for: Full facial rejuvenation (fine lines, uneven tone, large pores, hyperpigmentation, scarring)

• Treatment regime for maximum results: 4–12 treatments over 4–12 months 

• Scheduling / Aftercare: Avoid sun/makeup for 12–24 hrs after microneedling. Schedule at least 2 weeks after any peels/Botox and wait at least 4 weeks between microneedling sessions.
