Why try cosmetic acupuncture in Lenexa?
01
Non-invasive and pain-free
Acupuncture requires the use of very thin, single use, sterile needles. Most patients report having absolutely no discomfort during treatment, and some may even find it relaxing.

Improved Collagen Production
As we age, our body reduce our production of collagen—which your body uses as a natural healing element to help keep healthy, tight, and glowing. Cosmetic acupuncture in Lenexa helps to stimulate collagen production in the treatment area!

Improved Circulation
During the SHEN facial acupuncture, gua sha, cupping, and massage are used to improve circulation in the face and neck. This can reduce puffiness and sinus congestion in the face.
