Somewhat: Acupuncture facelifts are referred to as facial enhancement procedures. The outcome are not as dramatic as surgical facelifts. The changes can be seen as early as the first 2 to 4 weeks after starting treatment.

Just relax your face: The beneficial effects of an accupuncture facelift are unlikely to produce a facelift but may be sufficiently relaxing to create a more relaxed facial appearance, if you can tolerate the needles.

Gimic Facelifts: An acupuncture facelift cannot by definition remove or reposition redundant skin and supporting structures of the skin required to reverse gravity, environmental factors and age related loss of elasticity. Beware !

Acupuncture: This is something that i don't do in my practice (nor am i trained to do it). I have viewed a couple of videos about it. My sense is that the word "facelift" is being used in an incredibly loose manner. There are acupuncture techniques which can be used to improve facial appearance, but it does not cause a literal face lift. My knowledge is limited on the matter.

Facelift = Surgery: Be very skeptical of any "non-invasive" procedure that claims the same results as surgery. A facelift corrects loose skin, acupuncture effects nerves and muscles. Perhaps you can obtain acupuncture botox, but it won't work as well as actually injecting botox, and certainly it is not a facelift.

Very effective. . .: For the scoundrel who is taking your money! acupuncture has positive benefits that are poorly appreciated by science and western medicine. But to claim face lifting as a potential application is like claiming acupuncture can "cure" diabetes. Please don't waste your money and seek out an ethical anps-certified plastic surgeon for real facelift advice! too good to be true usually is bogus!

Facelift: Acupuncture cannot achieve what a surgical procedure like a facelift can. Your best bet would be to have your face evaluated by a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
