Japanese facial acupuncture

I want to tell you about an ancient technique that effectively works on aging and wrinkles , even the deepest ones. This treatment is Japanese facial acupuncture.

I decided to delve deeper into this technique because after studying traditional Chinese medicine, I felt that I was missing something more on a facial level and I found this discipline, which has immediate results and is more effective in activating the synthesis of collagen and elastin and significantly reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

  • It is an acupuncture technique where gold-plated microneedles are inserted. Gold is the most noble mineral, it helps with energy balance, is hypoallergenic and is associated with toning properties.

  • Wrinkles are worked on in a very specific way and at strategic points to release the emotion contained in this section of the muscle and visibly reduce the wrinkle.
    There is a connection between the prick and the brain, in the somatosensory area of ​​the brain, where the emotion is released and consequently the wrinkle.

  • Its effects work directly on emotions , and many of the wrinkles that appear are related to them and to the tensions that we accumulate.

  • Joy: "Crow's feet" and nasolabial folds or so-called "marionettes" form.
  • Surprise: Horizontal wrinkles on the forehead.
  • Sadness: Drooping of the upper eyelid and corners of the lips.
  • Anger and Disgust: Wrinkles form between the eyebrows and upper lip.
  • Fear: Horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, wrinkles between the eyebrows.

The ultimate goal is to improve firmness, fill wrinkles, stimulate collagen and elastin, activate blood circulation and energy flow in the body.

This is reflected in the appearance of the skin, which appears healthier and more rejuvenated.

The results are visible from the first session, but without a doubt, if we want more optimal results, my recommendation is to do 8 to 10 sessions in a row, once a week. It all depends on the person, their intentions and their emotional management.
It is important to understand that acupuncture (or any other treatment) cannot permanently eliminate wrinkles, but we can attenuate and reduce their depth and appearance.


I fell in love with Japanese facial acupuncture for its way of working on beauty, for being able to work with a Well Aging treatment, without the need to use techniques that are harmful to health. Just as I was fascinated by its philosophy, Wabi-Sabi, there is a part of me that resonates a lot with it.
Inspired by nature, which is both perfect and full of imperfections, it allows us to venerate authenticity and celebrate the imperfections of life. It teaches us to enjoy moments as they come, without expectations .

The scars, scratches, wrinkles and imperfections on our bodies are, according to this philosophy, a reminder of our experiences. To completely eliminate them would be to ignore the complexities of life. And embracing them allows us to live a fuller and happier life.

That is why I always talk about Slow Life and Well Aging , it is the most healing way to keep our skin healthy, to completely ignore what they constantly sell us and is not real, to put aside aesthetic treatments that are harmful to our health and embrace beauty and natural treatments that are not invasive to our body.

Beauty is intimately intertwined with the imperfection and impermanence of things , as well as with peacefully and serenely accepting the cycle of life.
