Is There Such A Thing As A Safe Facelift?

women_applying_makeup_DT
30 seconds

While I personally believe that procedures attempting to halt or deny the aging process can be roadblocks to aging gracefully, facial acupuncture may be appropriate for some people. It is:

  • A less invasive alternative to traditional facelifts
  • A safer approach than surgery
  • Free of the side effects of therapies such as Botox injections

It may also have psychological benefits – patients may feel relaxed as a side effect of facial acupuncture. With or without acupuncture, a healthy diet, smart sun exposure, exercise and stress reduction techniques are still my top recommendations for a healthy lifestyle that supports healthy aging.
