Sharon Kent Acupuncture

On your first visit to our clinic a full diagnostic diagnosis is carried out. Sharon will ask questions not only about your health but about the health of your family, your medical history and background. She will need as much information as possible to treat you, the person, not you, the condition.

Do you want younger looking skin but hate the thought of surgery or injections? Collagen Induction Therapy is the all-natural solution to beautiful, youthful skin. Also known as skin needling, medical needling, dermarolling and microneedling, Collagen Induction Therapy uses a dermaroller to stimulate the bodys own production of collagen, making it an ideal anti-aging treatment.

During treatment the dermaroller, which is a small, handheld device consisting of close to 200 microneedles, is gently rolled over the face or body in order to create multiple tiny punctures in the the layers of skin. Simply put these microtraumas activate the skins natural healing processes and collagen and elastin are deposited as a result of the complex biochemical events of skin regeneration.

Facial Revitalisation Acupuncture is a specialist holistic treatment designed to improve the overall appearance and health of the skin by rebalancing the bodys energy system. Vital energy is brought to the facial muscles and skin, which hydrates, firms and plumps tissue, thus decreasing the appearance of fine lines, blemishes and wrinkles. The treatment incorporates gentle massage to the face and neck to further enhance muscle tone and circulation.

Acupuncture points on the body may also be stimulated to enhance health and well being of the whole body.

The course of treatment is between 6 and 10 consecutive weekly sessions. Each person responds differently to treatment depending on their age and lifestyle. The effects can often be seen after the first or second treatment, however they become more noticeable and lasting on or about the sixth session. Following the initial course of treatment, maintenance sessions are required to prolong the results. The effects can last for years with regular treatment.
