The following is a summary/response to an article from the NY Times:
"Hold the Chemicals, Bring on the Needles"
It seems that a new way of getting rid of those nasty old wrinkles is taking America by storm. Move out of the way botox and make room for the new method of rejuvenating your skin; acupuncture. According to customers mentioned in the article Hold the Chemicals, Bring on the Needles, the so-called acupuncture-face lift has made their skin gain back that "youthful glow" they had earlier in their life. When performing these acupuncture sessions, the acupuncturist must be very scrupulous and take caution while putting needles into the faces of their customers. Those who use the acupuncture-face lift, could very possibly be at the pinnacles of their career because they would need to have an ample amount of money in order to afford this. However if the acupuncture method did not work, it would as if the clinics usurped the money out of their customer's pocket. It is possible that the clinics who promote the use of this method are conniving together to create different market schemes to in order to convince more of the public that acupuncture could get of wrinkles. Dr. Peter G. Hanson, an acupuncturist claims that cosmetic acupuncture incorporates "microcurrents" that tone and increase the volume of underlying muscles, which could make the skin tight and youthful again. Dr. Hanson states that it also causes a stimulation in the nerves. However, Dr. Richard D'Amico, the president of the American Society for Plastic Surgeon believes that Dr. Hanson fabricated this information because he claims that by doing this, it could result in causing wrinkles to get worse. If Dr. Hanson's claim is true, then acupuncture would not cause atrophy in one's face since it he claims that it stimulates the nerves and won't cause the muscles in the face to waste away.
