What are Eye Lines?

Eye lines are often referred to as crows feet, smile lines, laugh lines or character lines. Nearly anyone who is over the age of 25 will have these v-shaped lines or wrinkles at the corner of their eyes. Eye lines include static and dynamic wrinkles. (see wrinkles)

Why do Eye Lines form?

The causes of these lines include collagen breakdown, loss of elasticity in the skin, too much sun exposure, diet and lifestyle choices such as smoking.

How can Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture help your eye lines?

Cosmetic Acupuncture works in 2 ways:

1) It stimulates the blood flow, collagen and elastin in the face. Acupuncture also works with strengthening the muscles great for lifting and tightening the skin. Over a program of treatments you will notice a reduction in your wrinkles and possibly an elimination of the fine lines around your eyes. As well as this if you experience puffiness, dark circles, dryness or tear troughs around the eyes acupuncture also helps to improve these symptoms simultaneously.

2) Your treatments do not just consist of a facial treatment we also assess your overall health and treat any conditions that you may present with. For example insomnia, menopausal symptoms, digestive disturbances etc. These health conditions can make a big difference to the health of your skin. At the end of your program we will have treated your internal and external health and beauty.
