Microneedling & Cosmetic Acupuncture Near Cohasset, MA

Natural skin care to rejuvenate your appearance.

Cosmetic acupuncture is used to decrease fine lines, age spots and plump up the tissue to rejuvenate your appearance. Cosmetic acupuncture can be done as often as once a week, and is often used to support the results seen from microneedling. While microneedling treats and stimulates a broad area, cosmetic acupuncture isolates deeper wrinkles and problem areas.

We at Johnston Family Acupuncture want to help you better manage your natural skin care. Our staff is trained to turn your cosmetic acupuncture session into a therapeutic experience. We use a combination of traditional herbs, aromatics, and ambience to make you as relaxed as possible throughout your session. If you’re in need of further relaxation or relief, we may recommend other techniques such as gua sha, cupping therapy, or moxa. We’re licensed by the state of Massachusetts to practice cosmetic acupuncture in Cohasset.

Cosmetic acupuncture is a minimally invasive procedure where an acupuncturist inserts acupuncture needles into problem areas in your skin. Cosmetic acupuncture is typically performed on the face and stimulates the muscles under the skin to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
The primary benefits of cosmetic acupuncture are improved blood flow to problem areas and the stimulation of facial muscles under the skin, which helps with tone and cosmetic issues such as lines and wrinkles. Cosmetic acupuncture is minimally invasive and can be done as frequently as once a week to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and scarring. Like microneedling, cosmetic acupuncture can serve to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin in your skin, improving your skin’s elasticity and firmness.
Short term benefits from cosmetic acupuncture can be seen almost immediately, such as improved skin tone, brightness, and a reduction in the visibility of fine lines.

What People Say

Testimonials

I tried acupuncture for a variety of reasons and I have experienced more health improvements since starting than I have through any other specialty (PCP, physical therapist, etc.).

Whether you have an ailment, chronic pain or are simply trying to maintain your health, I suggest trying Johnston Family Acupuncture — you won't be disappointed.

Irene is amazing, I felt great after leaving my two sessions with her and plan to book many more!

She caters her technique to your individual needs and makes you feel calm and relaxed the entire time.

Emily is great! She is very receptive to your needs and actually listens to you when you talk about how your body is feeling!

She then builds a plan with you about how to help. I came in to see Emily about chronic back pain and can honestly say I’ve seen improvements over the past two months. Her office is super easy to get to and very relaxing.

Courtney Lennon has been my acupuncturist for a few months now. I'm so happy that I found her.

My pain has decreased as she incorporates different types of treatment. The office is spacious and receives a lot of sunlight. The treatment rooms make me feel like I'm in my own cocoon. The office staff is excellent, and their online booking tool allows you to schedule and cancel appointments.

Irene at Johnston Family Acupuncture is knowledgeable, intuitive, compassionate and a gifted healer.

The experience was fantastic and I look forward to returning for more!

As a person who fears needles I thought doing acupuncture would be off putting. Instead I find myself very pleased with this alternative option to treat my painfully arthritic knees.

Emily is a gem, she does a full body treatment that really makes me feel like the treatment is well worth the time and effort.

I love acupuncture so much. It has lowered my stress level and helped me with issues I didn't realize could be helped with acupuncture.

The space is beautiful and Emily & Irene are kind and inquisitive.

When performed properly, cosmetic acupuncture shouldn’t hurt at all. Acupuncture needles are just a few tenths of a millimeter in diameter, or roughly the diameter of a strand of hair. You may feel a pinch, or a tapping sensation as the needle is inserted. If you experience pain or discomfort during cosmetic acupuncture, it’s important to discuss this with your acupuncturist so they can adjust the placement of the acupuncture needles.
An initial consultation for our cosmetic acupuncture in Cohasset costs $200 and will help determine if cosmetic acupuncture is right for you. Each followup treatment of cosmetic acupuncture in Cohasset costs $135, and treatments can be scheduled as frequently as once a week.
During your consultation, you should expect to talk in depth about your entire health history. Then a physical exam will be performed by checking your tongue, pulse, and abdomen. Following the diagnosis, we will prescribe and administer the treatment protocol that works best for you. Cosmetic acupuncture is often done in conjunction with microneedling to further stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. This combination of treatments dramatically increases the production of collagen and elastin in your skin, leaving you looking and feeling younger and more refreshed.
