ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture is a complete medical specialty that focuses on internal medical diagnosis, treatment and prevention of illness of non-surgical conditions while also correcting imbalances of energy in the body. It is an ancient medical technique of over 3,000 years. Practitioners insert fine “pin” like needles into specific points on the body for the purpose of decreasing pain, promoting circulation, regulating the nervous system and other regulatory systems of the body. Acupuncture is often integrated with Herbal Medicine, Cupping, Moxibustion, Gua-Sha and other various modalities under the umbrella of Traditional Chinese Medicine. With these combined therapeutic modalities health is restored quickly and naturally.

HOLISTIC SKINCARE

Micro needling aims to rejuvenate the skin's appearance by stimulating the production of healthy new cells. This literally renews the skin, so the result is smoother, more radiant, and more younger-looking appearance, NATURALLY.

The mechanical action of the pen allows the needles to puncture the skin and create a controlled injury at a specific depth. Each puncture creates a channel that triggers the body's natural healing process to fill these micro wounds by producing new collagen and elastin in the papillary dermis. In addition, new capillaries are formed for improved blood supply.

What is the difference between Micro Needling and Cosmetic Acupuncture?

Micro Needling increases keratinocytes and stem cells which produce collagen and elastin in the face. It is best known for treating wrinkles, age spots, scars, skin tone, acne and other blemishes. Micro Needling is used with nutritive and herbal serums and increases absorption by 3,000%. Cosmetic acupuncture focuses on lifting, firming and tightening skin, as well as reducing inflammation and increasing collagen production. Both methods are based on Chinese Medicine principles of moving Qi and blood and stimulating facial meridians.

BENEFITS

  • Moderates acne scars fine lines and wrinkles

  • Tones, tightens and brightens the skin

  • Reduces photo aging and sun damage

|

The Nano needling cartridge head uses 81 silicone tips. These microscopic hairlike cones oscillate just like the microneedle cartridge to separate the cells of the skin to drive in the topical product and allow up to 97% product absorption. This allows for the stimulation of collagen production to help with fine lines and wrinkles, a less invasive treatment for acne hyperpigmentation and an overall smoothness and plumping of your skin.

What is the difference between Nano Needling and Micro Needling?

Both nano-needling & micro-needling address the same skincare concerns and they both use a needling pen to create micro-channels in the skin. The main difference between the two is the depth that the needles are able to penetrate into the skin. Nano-needling only punctures the first layer of the skin (epidermis) while Micro-needling penetrates into the deep dermis.

If you are concerned about fine lines & wrinkles, swelling, dark pigmentation or sagging skin, then nano-needling is for you. If your skin care concerns include deep wrinkles, a tighter, more youthful appearance, hypo-pigmentation, stretch marks or deep acne scars, then micro-needling would be the treatment for that. Alternating between Micro needling and Nano needling is a very popular advanced treatment for those seeking to maintain a youthful appearance.

When specific wavelengths of light are applied at the correct frequency and intensity, the light is transformed by the body into biochemical energy that cells need to repair and regenerate themselves to eliminate pain and promote healing for a wide range of medical conditions. These include acute and chronic conditions, soft tissue and sports injuries, arthritic conditions, and repetitive stress injuries among many others. At AWPB we use 2 different types of Class 3B lasers which offer very specific healing opportunities for a variety of chronic and acute conditions.

FREQUENCY SPECIFIC MICRO CURRENT

Frequency specific microcurrent therapy is a non-invasive, effective treatment that introduces a mild electrical current into an area of damage or stimulation of soft tissue. When the low level currents (microcurrents) are pulsed at different frequencies the current interacts with body tissues. Depending on the tissue involved, specific frequencies will be selected to encourage natural healing by stimulating cells to produce more ATP (energy). With more energy available the cells are able to accomplish the self repair tasks that they couldn't before and also by sending specific signals to the cells.
