Acupuncturist Siamak Shirazi claims that cosmetic acupuncture can take years off your face. It helps to eliminate fine lines and makes the deeper lines look softer. It can also help to minimize dark circles, puffy eyes, double chin, sagging skin, and dropping eyelids. He says cosmetic acupuncture works by increasing collagen production and also tones the muscles under the facial muscles which makes your face look tighter.
