Frequently Asked Questions

1. I am scared of needles. Is the treatment painful? 

Modern acupuncture is not painful at all. I deliver the bio-thread to the acupuncture point with a hair-thin needle. There is no needle left in the body, only the bio-thread remains and constantly stimulates the body. The place of the puncture is not visible at all. The treatment does not need to be repeated very often, only once a month. 

2. I am on lots of medications. Do they affect the treatment? Does the treatment have any side effects?

As no drug or foreign substance enters the body the treatment does not affect medications and does not influence the results of medical examinations such as X-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI. Modern acupuncture has no side-effects at all because it stimulates the body’s own self-healing power.

3. How long is the treatment? Am I allowed to drive afterwards? 

One treatment is usually 30 minutes. Before the treatment you can have some light meal, and after the session you can drive. However, hard physical work or intensive exercise is inadvisable for a couple of days after the treatment in order to let the body act upon the stimulation it received.

4. How many treatments are needed to reach the desired effects?

It depends on the underlying condition but after 3 occasions there is always significant improvement. In the case of acute pain, at an early stage even the first treatment can be very effective right away.

5. Is the effect visible immediately? How long does it last?

Yes, it is already visible during the treatment – for example if we compare it with the untreated side of the face. However, the effect becomes the most visible 1-3 months after the treatment because that is when the collagen thread transforms into the body’s own subcutan collagen. By then you might end up looking even 5-10 years younger!

6. Is it permitted to go to a sauna, solarium or beauty salon after face tightening? 

After approximately one week all kinds of activities are permitted.
