Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture & Microneedling in Hendersonville, NC
That's exactly where facial rejuvenation acupuncture and microneedling live. At Hendersonville Acupuncture & Wellness, these treatments are performed by doctoral-trained, licensed acupuncturists, because good medicine starts before you get on the table. We always treat the whole body. Your skin isn't separate from your sleep, your hormones, your stress, or your digestion, and we know that regulating these processes is the foundation of healthy, glowing skin.
You've probably noticed there are two conversations happening about aging skin. One says inject it, freeze it, fill it. The other says do nothing and love your lines. Most of the women who walk into our Hendersonville clinic live somewhere in between: they want to look rested, vibrant, and like themselves without going straight to needles of the injectable kind.
Natural skin rejuvenation, backed by clinical training
Facial cupping and Gua Sha can be stand alone treatments but are always a part of Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture. Here, we are demonstrating how we incorporate key acupuncture points into the treatment to activate healing of not only the skin but the whole body using Gua Sha to lift and tone.
Facial acupuncture vs. microneedling: which one is for you?
Facial rejuvenation acupuncture uses very fine needles placed at specific points on the face and body. The facial points create tiny, controlled micro-stimulation in the skin, which is intended to encourage local circulation and the skin's own repair response. The body points matter just as much as this is a whole-person treatment, not a spot treatment. Many patients describe the sessions as deeply relaxing.
Microneedling (collagen induction therapy) uses a precision device to create controlled micro-channels in the skin, prompting the skin's natural production of new collagen and elastin. It's our go-to for skin texture and tone, firmness, the appearance of fine lines and deeper wrinkles, acne scarring, enlarged pores, stretch marks, and age spots. Because your practitioner is trained in both of these techniques + Chinese medicine, your treatment accounts for the skin you have. It’s not a one-size-fits-all protocol. It’s customized to you and your needs.
Both together is where many of our patients land: microneedling for structural skin change, facial acupuncture for circulation, lifting, muscle tone, and the whole-body side of radiant skin. During your consultation, we'll map out which approach or which combination fits your skin, your goals, and your calendar.
Why do this with an acupuncturist instead of a med spa?
Fair question. Here's our honest answer.
A cosmetic treatment at our clinic is still a medical appointment with a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. That means your intake covers more than your skin: hormone shifts, sleep, stress load, nutrition, and medications all shape how your skin behaves and heals. It also means your practitioner is trained in herb-drug interactions, anatomy, and pathology. So recommendations for aftercare, topicals, and internal support are made with your whole health picture in view.
Glowing skin that lasts is rarely just a surface project. Perimenopausal skin changes, stress breakouts, and dullness that no serum fixes usually have something happening underneath.
We treat the underneath.
What to expect: timeline, sessions, and honest expectations
The truth about cosmetic acupuncture and microneedling: these are cumulative treatments, one builds upon the last. They are not one-visit transformations.
Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is typically done as a series of 8 sessions over 8 weeks, with maintenance visits after on an as needed basis. Depending on your skin + your goals, this might take less time or a bit more.
Microneedling appointments are spaced 4 weeks apart for a series of 6 treatments (with a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 8), because collagen remodeling takes time. Microneedling results can last for approximately 3-5 years once the series is complete.
Results vary from person to person, and we'll tell you at your consultation what's realistic for your skin, including when we think a different approach would serve you better.
Investment:
Facial rejuvenation packages start at $465 for a 3-pack (only $155/treatment, a $75 savings)
Microneedling packages start at $560 for a 2-pack.
Packages are a great way to save $. However, you can always purchase single treatments outside of the packages/membership offerings.
And because aftercare is important
Your skin does its best repair work in the days AFTER treatment, so aftercare matters. Every facial rejuvenation acupuncture and microneedling patient leaves with clear aftercare guidance. You’ll also receive a complementary skin recovery kit to use the days post microneedling. These topicals are formulated to support skin recovery.
