Cosmetic Acupuncture
A gentle, skin-focused treatment experience, with realistic expectations.
Care That Starts With You
Cosmetic acupuncture offers a natural, non-surgical approach to facial wellness. Using fine acupuncture needles and complementary treatments, we focus on supporting healthy-looking skin, relieving facial tension, and helping you feel refreshed.
At Alignment, treatments are personalized to your skin concerns, aesthetic goals, and overall well-being.
How Does Cosmetic Acupuncture Work?
Fine needles are placed at carefully selected points on the face and body, gently stimulating the skin, sensory nerves, and underlying tissues. This may encourage local circulation and the skin’s natural repair processes, potentially including collagen production. Facial treatments may also help ease muscle tension.
Why Do We Recommend a Series of Treatments?
Cosmetic acupuncture is not an instant facelift. Patients should expect to work toward gradual, subtle changes over a series of treatments rather than dramatic results after one appointment. We assess your skin goals and response along the way, adjusting the plan as needed. Results vary, and no particular outcome can be guaranteed.
Cosmetic Acupuncture + AcuLight® LED Therapy
Our cosmetic acupuncture packages combine facial acupuncture with AcuLight® LED light therapy by AcuMicro when appropriate. We use the freestanding AcuLight® Pro, a high-output light therapy system with red, blue, and yellow LEDs. The light therapy itself requires no needles or injections.
LED therapy complements facial acupuncture by working with the skin's natural biological responses. Research on specific red and blue wavelengths has found improvements in acne lesions, skin texture, and collagen-related activity with repeated treatments. Our AcuLight® Pro brings this research-backed approach into a dedicated in-office skincare session. Results vary, and research on LED therapy does not guarantee the same outcome with every device.
Our Cosmetic Wellness Package
8 visits — $1,500. This series combines cosmetic acupuncture with AcuLight® LED therapy when suitable. Consistency provides an opportunity to assess gradual changes over time, while your cosmetic-acupuncture care and the recommended visit schedule are based on your individual needs. Package inclusions and policies will be reviewed before purchase.
Is This Right for You?
We'll review your skin concerns, sensitivity, medications, recent aesthetic procedures, pregnancy status, and treatment goals. Minor bruising or temporary irritation can occur with acupuncture, and some people need precautions for light therapy. Neither treatment replaces dermatologic care for concerning skin changes.
An eight-visit cosmetic acupuncture program with AcuLight LED treatment, as appropriate.
