Facial Acupuncture in Scarborough

Facial (cosmetic) acupuncture in Scarborough at Aara uses very fine needles on the face and body as a relaxing, traditional approach to facial wellness.

What it is

Facial acupuncture places very fine needles at points on the face, often along with points on the body. People often choose it for relaxation and a refreshed look. It is a complementary, non-surgical option, and individual results vary.

What to expect

Your practitioner discusses your goals and health history, then places fine, sterile, single-use needles. You rest for a period of time. Mild tenderness or a small bruise at a needle site can happen. A series of sessions is typical, and your practitioner will set expectations with you honestly.

Who should check first

Tell us if you are pregnant, take blood thinners, have a bleeding disorder, a skin infection or active facial skin condition, or have had recent cosmetic procedures. We will advise whether it is suitable.
