In May 2005, Ros studied Facial Rejuvenation (cosmetic acupuncture) with American Expert, Virginia Doran in Dublin.
Ros, one of the few qualified practitioners of cosmetic acupuncture in Ireland, explains that by stimulating energy (chi) acupuncture energises cell rejuvenation , production of collagen and elastin as well as tightening existing fibres, which lift facial tissue.
Ros learnt her skills from an American expert but she knows that the Japanese – who have famously ageless skin and have facial acupuncture every few months have done the most research into its facial benefits.
As well as lifting skin, it is said to be able to help reduce under eye bags and alleviate puffy or droopy eyelids.
