F.A.C.E. Korean Facial Acupuncture – Real Cases
Alternative to Fillers for Sagging Cheeks and Nasolabial folds
F.A.C.E. Facial Acupuncture
✔ Lifts sagging cheeks and stimulates collagen production
✔ Softens wrinkles and fine lines: Nasolabial folds and Marionette lines
VS
Risks of Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Filler
Overfilling & “Pillow Face” Syndrome is common for excessive injection. Overfilled midface may also reduce natural expression mobility which leads to “frozen face”.Fillers shift under gravity and muscle movement. After temporary fillers dissolved, stretched skin lacks support and may result in deeper folds & hollows than pre-treatment.
Face Lifting and Collagen Booster for Anti-Aging
F.A.C.E. Facial Acupuncture
✔ Promotes collagen production, qi and blood circulation
✔ Sensitive skin-friendly, no thermal stimulation
✔ Improves acne and fade acne marks
✔ Safe and no side effects
VS
Risks of HIFU / Thermage (Radiofrequency)
Radiofrequency/thermal energy can irritate sensitive skin or patients with skin conditions like Rosacea, Eczema or Dermatitis
Improper energy control may dissolve fat pad in cheeks. The loss of volume may make the face appear hollow and even older.
Minor risks such as temporary redness, bruising, or numbness; rare burn risk
Alternative to Botox - Face and Jaw Slimming & Lifting, Skin Firming
F.A.C.E. Facial Acupuncture
✔ Safe needling technique, relaxes masseter muscles
✔ Face slimming and lifting with natural results
✔ Adjusts uneven eyebrows and facial asymmetry
VS
Risks of Botox
Botox injections of neurotoxin paralyze the masseter muscle and disable its contraction function, achieving cosmetic-level face slimming effects. However, this invasive treatment requiring very high technical skill from the doctor. If the concentration, dosage, injection site, or depth is inappropriate, the frozen masseter can cause compensatory contraction of other muscles, resulting in reverse effects or "frog cheek." According to HKDA 2023 data, >23% patients need multiple corrective touch-ups from botox.
Fun Fact about F.A.C.E. Facial Acupuncture
Professor Song Jeong-Hwa(송정화) from Kyung Hee University in Korea used facial acupuncture to treat facial paralysis (Bell’s palsy). Surprisingly, the treated side of the face showed significant improvements in skin texture, fine lines, and lifting effects. This discovery led to the formalization of the F.A.C.E. (Facial Acupuncture for Charm and Elegance) protocol. This Korean style facial acupuncture technique combines modern medical anatomy with Traditional Chinese Medicine meridian theory to give an even more effective improvement on cheek lifting and wrinkle smoothing.
Korean F.A.C.E. facial acupuncture combines Western medical anatomy with Chinese medicine meridian concepts. By adjusting subcutaneous muscles, fascia, and ligaments, it uses an all-natural approach to improve facial elasticity and tension, achieving anti-aging and contour-lifting effects while improving qi and blood circulation in the head and face.

How Many Sessions Are Needed to See Noticeable Results?
Facial acupuncture offers instant lifting and immediate contour improvement. However, facial muscles need 21-28 days to adapt and remodel. At the initial stage, a weekly and continuous treatment is recommended for best result. After that, we suggest a maintenance treatment in every 1-2 month for a sustained effect in anti-aging. Frequency vary from ages and individual condition.
Immediate & Acumulative Effects
| Phase | Frequency | Key Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Initial (Sessions 1-2) | 1-2 times/week | Resets muscle memory, reduces puffiness, lift SMAS layer |
| Consolidation (Sessions 3-6) | Weekly | Builds collagen, lifts sagging areas |
| Maintenance | Monthly/Bimonthly | Preserves youthful elasticity |
Is It Painful During Facial Acupuncture Treatment?
Ultra-fine needles(0.10-0.12mm), which are thinner than a strand of hair, are used in facial acupuncture. Compared to the 0.16–0.25mm needles used in traditional body acupuncture, facial acupuncture needles enter almost painlessly. Most patients report there is nearly no discomfort or pain in most area. The gentle insertion and relaxed experience allow patients to chat with acupuncturist during the treatment.
Can Western Aesthetic Treatments Be Combined with Facial Acupuncture?
Most Western aesthetic treatments do not conflict with facial acupuncture and can even complement each other with synergistic effects. For example, some patients who had double eyelid surgery but experienced prolonged swelling. After receiving facial acupuncture, blood circulation improved and the swelling subsided quickly. If fillers have been previously implanted, the practitioner will avoid those areas during treatment.
Ideal Treatment Combinations
| Medical Procedure | How Acupuncture Helps | Recommended Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Botox | Reduces post-injection swelling | 3-7 days after Botox |
| Fillers | Improves microcirculation for longevity | 2 weeks before/after fillers |
| Laser Resurfacing | Accelerates healing + reduces redness | 1 week post-laser |
| Eyelid Surgery | Dramatically reduces bruising/swelling | Start 3 days post-operation |
Are There Any Post-Treatment Precautions?
There is no downtime for facial acupuncture. You can put on skincare, makeup right after and get back to work or daily routine. Chewing hard foods and gum should be avoided to let facial muscle relax. Avoid too much alcohol and stay hydrated for best results and glowy skin.
