Facial Rejuvenation Cupping has been used in Asia, Europe and Russia for rejuvenation and skin maintenance for generations. Small cups are used to vacume and lift the facial tissue, gliding across the skin in specific ways. This action also increases lymphatic drainage.
The benefits include increased circulation and nutrients brought to the skin and enhanced absorption of facial products. The drainage of stagnant fluids from areas of the face will reduce edema and chronic puffiness. Lines and wrinkles and scar tissue soften from cupping, making it an effective and surprisingly relaxing facial treatment.
Sinus infections and inflammation are also directly relieved by the loosening and draining effects of the cups, often resolving these issues.
Cost: $1500. for package of 12 sessions ($125. per session) Maintenance sessions after completion of package: $125. per session (1 - 2 per month) One off session: $135.
Things to know - No cupping marks are left on the skin because the cups move during the treatment. - The sessions are 30 - 40 minutes long, however, prepare for 60 minutes the first session (talking of pictures) - In the first session we will take a 'before' picture and you will fill out an intake form. An after picture is taken at the last session for comparison purposes. - It is important to drink lots of water while undergoing this treatment. - The sessions are 2 or 3 times per week for optimal effect. After you are finished your course of treatments, 1 - 2 sessions per month will be needed for maintenance. - No two people are alike. Results will vary according to texture, exercise, diet, hydration, etc... But, everyone looks a whole lot better!

Pre and post cupping tips Avoid makeup the day of treatment in order to minimize impurities in the skin. Stay well-hydrated both before and after treatment to maximize the benefits. Shaving or other hair removal should be avoided on the day of the cupping treatment as skin will be more sensitive. Excessive heat or sun exposure should also be avoided as skin may be sensitive for up to 12 hours after treatment. As with any facial, cupping draws impurities to the surface and there may be a breakout immediately after treatment, so cupping should be avoided within three to five days before an event like a wedding. The risk of post-treatment breakouts, called a “healing crisis”, diminishes with regular treatments. Start early for your special day and you will be absolutely glowing, toned and beautiful!
