Cosmetic Acupuncture and Injectables - Understanding the Difference
Facial movement plays an important role in how we feel, express emotion, and relate to others. Our facial muscles, nerves, connective tissue and underlying bone are in constant communication — a feedback system that supports expression, structure and vitality over time.
Injectables such as Botox are not the enemy. When used strategically and sparingly (rather than consistently) they can be helpful for certain individuals and concerns. However, it’s important to understand that reducing muscle movement also reduces natural signalling between the muscles, nerves and deeper facial structures.
Facial cosmetic acupuncture works in a very different way. Rather than immobilising muscle, it supports circulation, neuromuscular activity, collagen production and tissue health, which helps the face maintain movement, tone and integrity. There is no interruption to expression or feedback, and no long-term trade-off to facial signalling.
For some clients, facial acupuncture is used alongside injectables. For others, it becomes a stand-alone, long-term approach to ageing that prioritises structure, expression and overall wellbeing.
My role is not to tell you what you should do, but to help you make informed choices that align with your body, your values and how you want to age.
