Kkeuthan Clinic Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture Treatment

Facial rejuvenation acupuncture works through the following mechanisms:

1. It can help improve sagging areas caused by reduced elasticity by providing gentle stimulation to the SMAS layer and facial muscles beneath the skin. By adjusting the position of the muscles, a lifting effect can be expected.

2. Micro-stimulation can induce an inflammatory response, which may positively influence the promotion of collagen and elastin production.

3. It can help activate blood and lymph circulation, reducing swelling and congestion. This can also be beneficial for overall skin texture improvement.

4. It delicately adjusts the movement of facial expression muscles. It can help balance muscles naturally by relaxing overly tense muscles and inducing contraction in weakened muscles.

5. It helps induce muscle memory, enabling facial muscles to learn and maintain a lifted state through repeated stimulation.

In addition to standard facial rejuvenation acupuncture, Kkeuthan Clinic combines electrical stimulation, offering the following additional benefits:

1. It can help stimulate muscle contraction, leading to a lifting response in sagging muscles.

2. It helps increase collagen production, activating the skin's natural regeneration process.

3. It can be beneficial for reducing double chin or swelling by promoting smooth lymph circulation.

4. It helps increase understanding of the treatment process by making muscle movements more clearly perceptible.

5. It strengthens muscle memory, helping facial expression muscles learn and naturally maintain a lifted state after treatment.

*What is Muscle Memory?

Similar to how our body corrects posture through exercise, the combined treatment of facial rejuvenation acupuncture and electrical stimulation is a process that repeatedly helps facial expression muscles and fascia recognize an ideal position and appropriate tension. Through approximately 3-5 repeated treatments, muscles are encouraged to remember this changed state. Subsequently, combining maintenance treatments can help achieve natural elasticity improvement and maintain stable facial expressions without the injection of artificial substances.

This treatment differs from simply superficially pulling up the skin.

Instead, it places greater emphasis on helping facial muscles recognize and 'remember' their lifted state.

*Treatment Areas

1. Forehead and Glabella (Frown Lines)

The forehead and glabella are areas where excessive tension or relaxation of the frontalis muscle can cause eyelids to appear droopy or wrinkles to deepen. Facial rejuvenation acupuncture delicately stimulates the frontalis muscle, and when necessary, electrical stimulation can be applied simultaneously to naturally lift the eyebrows and help alleviate frown lines.

2. Eye Area and Under-Eyes

The eye area and under-eyes are prone to reduced blood and lymph circulation due to thin skin and frequent use of the orbicularis oculi muscle. This can lead to dark circles, fine wrinkles, and loss of elasticity. Facial rejuvenation acupuncture helps improve circulation at the acupoints and lymphatic system in these areas, and induces healthy regeneration of the dermis layer, which can help improve skin elasticity around the eyes.

3. Under the Cheekbones and Nasolabial Folds

It is common to see deep nasolabial folds due to sagging mid-face fat. Facial rejuvenation acupuncture stimulates the area under the cheekbones in a lifting direction and regulates the facial expression muscles around the mouth. This can help alleviate nasolabial folds and balance the volume in the central part of the face.

4. Mouth Area and Corners of the Mouth

Imbalances in facial expression muscles can create marionette lines or make one appear tired. Facial rejuvenation acupuncture precisely stimulates key facial muscles such as the levator anguli oris and buccinator to naturally lift the corners of the mouth. This can contribute to creating an overall brighter and more positive impression.

5. Jawline and Double Chin Area

The jawline and double chin area can become indistinct and feel heavy due to poor lymphatic circulation or fascial relaxation. Facial rejuvenation acupuncture delicately stimulates the contours of these areas to aid circulation improvement and strengthen the fascial layer, thereby

it can help reduce a double chin and create a more defined V-line.

In conclusion, facial rejuvenation acupuncture can be seen as a structural lifting treatment that identifies the fundamental causes in each part of the face and, through appropriate needle insertion and stimulation, helps achieve balanced improvement across the entire face.

Facial rejuvenation acupuncture carries meaning beyond simple acupuncture treatment.

It is a similar approach to personalized training for elasticity improvement, by re-establishing muscle memory deep within the facial muscles.

Especially when combined with electrical stimulation, it can help muscles better 'remember' and maintain their lifted state on their own. This is a non-surgical approach that promotes fundamental elasticity improvement.

We aim for lifting results that emphasize naturalness and can be expected to last.

We focus not only on the skin's surface but also on muscle 'memory' to seek more fundamental improvement methods.

Post-Treatment Precautions

• On the day of the treatment, you can wash your face and apply makeup, but it is recommended to apply sufficient sunscreen.
• For skin that has become temporarily sensitive due to the treatment, focusing on soothing and moisturizing care can help with recovery.
