Mr. Alan Koo, the Chairman of River Cam Medical Group, said: "Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history in applying acupuncture in beauty care. The concept combining ancient Chinese imperial wisdom of beauty care and modern nutrition science can surely bring a new experience to clients in need."
Ms. Jeannie Chan, Chinese Medicine Practitioner of River Cam Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture Clinic explained: "Imperial Facial Acupuncture makes use of both acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine theory and anatomical facial structures in human. Therapists would apply special fine needles on selected acupoints for facial acupuncture treatment, which is clinically proven to promote collagen aggregation, enhance contours and balancing of the face. Many patients come to us for reducing dark circles under the eyes, wrinkles, and acne problems. Such acupuncture treatment helps make glowing and elastic skin. To further uplift the effect of facial acupuncture, it is recommended to apply "Princess Yonghe Imperial Facial Powder", a secret facial treatment mask recipe from ancient palace in Tang Dynasty of Ancient China. The combination of such facial treatment masks and acupuncture can effectively target the root cause of skin problems in a natural way. "
There was a live demonstration of "Imperial Facial Acupuncture" at the opening event. Participants said that they felt their skin lifted immediately after the acupuncture session. In addition, results of case studies from clients showed a significant improvement in terms of facial balancing, cheek lifting and dark spot reduction upon weeks of facial acupuncture treatment.
Ms Cindy Au, a celebrity nutritionist of River Cam Nutrition Centre, added: "From the perspective of nutrition, we provide daily dietetic guidance to improve skin problems. There are four key diets that can help maintain healthy skin. It is important to choose food ingredients wisely and to avoid food substances that may damage the healthy balance of normal skin. We will share with our clients some unhealthy diet and misbelief leading to common skin problems like acne. The market is flooded with many skin care supplements, however, some of the ingredients may not be suitable for all users. It is therefore important to consult healthcare professionals in advance."
