What is Cosmetic Acupuncture in Clifton and how does it work?
For facial rejuvenation acupuncture, needless are inserted on the face in upward direction for lifting effect. Distal Points in facial rejuvenation acupuncture are any acupuncture point not located on the face or neck. They always are placed according to the underlying TCM pattern presenting in each client. The other key reason to use distal points is to keep the person “grounded” and stop too much blood (and qi) rushing to their head.
Features of Cosmetic Acupuncture at Pulse Acupuncture in Clifton, NJ
Usually, needles are inserted using facial acupuncture points, under either end of the wrinkle to begin shortening it. This is a common technique to help prevent wrinkly elongating. In many cases the wrinkly will actually lift up during and after the treatment. This may worry the client, but it indicates a good result as it immediately moves blood. Facial cosmetic acupuncture works by tightening of connective tissue that is one of the main causes of changes in facial shape as we age. The best effect of acupuncture treatment is instant acupuncture face lift.
Complementary products during the treatment at Pulse Acupuncture in Clifton, NJ
Pulse Acupuncture, located in Clifton, NJ, offers a range of complementary products to enhance and support the acupuncture treatment experience.
JADE GUA SHA
Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese Beauty tool which translates as “scraping board”. They target specific points on the face and so have a deeper therapeutic effect. Some limited research has been done on Gua Sha therapy and it shows an increase in microcirculation of up to 400% following a single treatment. This aids skin nutrition before Cosmetic Acupuncture Treatment.
COSMETIC CUPPING
Cosmetic cupping is performed as moving cupping in an upwards and outwards direction across the face. Cupping also produces all the usual benefits of massage such as increased lymphatic drainage, improved microcirculation. Additionally, research has shown that cupping may actually break up old connective tissue.
RED Light Therapeutic Devices
Using RED Light Therapeutic Devices in conjunction with Cosmetic Acupuncture gives good visible results. We use Celluma Red Light Therapy, Tomma Red therapy Dome and Far-Infrared/Near-Infrared Onnetsu Dome. Every session that red light is applied after facial acupuncture treatment, red light benefits the entire body, because factors released from cells which receive red light promote proper function in cells adjacent to them. Furthermore, blood cells also absorb red light, so as it passes the area of the body being exposed to red light, the light absorbed will then travel through the bloodstream and end up nourishing cells in other regions of the body. This means that all red light sessions reward the entire body as a whole or holistically. Red light therapeutic range: 620-700 nm. Red light protects the body from damaging radiation and bolster energy production inside every cell with which they interact.

Dear Dr.Marina Doktorman,I hope this message finds you well! I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible impact your acupuncture sessions have had on my life. Your expertise and care have helped me find relief and healing in ways I never thought possible.When I first sought acupuncture, I was struggling with a combination of issues that affected my overall well-being. Chronic back pain was causing constant discomfort, and my restless nights were dominated by persistent night sweats.

Acupuncture seemed to trigger a healing response, and gradually, my skin issues started to fade away. I couldn't believe the visible transformation, and it did wonders for my self-confidence.As for the night sweats and back pain, they became less frequent and intense with each session. Your targeted approach and skillful needle placement directly addressed the root causes of my discomfort, providing much-needed relief and easing the burdens I had carried for far too long.I cannot stress enough how appreciative I am for the positive impact you've had on my life.

I was a patient of Marina Doktorma for about two weeks (October/November 2020), receiving acupuncture treatments for lower back and knee pain. Marina is a true professional. Before beginning each treatment, she explained the treatment options and made sure that I was well informed and comfortable before beginning. She was very gentle as she administered the treatments, (I feel asleep a few times) communicating with me throughout the process. In addition to the premise being very clean, relaxing music made for a very calming experience. Without hesitation, I would return for future treatments if the pain returns. Kenny.
