Microneedling & Cosmetic Acupuncture in Bend, Oregon

Healthy skin reflects internal balance, circulation, and collagen integrity.

At Deschutes Acupuncture, we approach dermatological health through an integrative lens — combining evidence-based microneedling treatments with Traditional Chinese Medicine principles to support long-term skin vitality.

Our goal is not just cosmetic improvement, but functional skin health.


WHAT WE TREAT

We support patients seeking improvement in:

- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne and post-acne scarring
- Hyperpigmentation
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Dull or aging skin
- Loss of elasticity
- Enlarged pores
- Sun damage

Treatments are customized based on skin type, age, and overall health.

Who it’s for

This care is for individuals who:

- Want natural collagen stimulation without injectables
- Prefer gradual, regenerative results
- Are looking for an integrative, non-toxic skincare approach
- Want to combine internal health with external glow
- Are preparing for a special event or simply maintaining long-term skin vitality

How We Treat it

MICRONEEDLING (COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY)

Microneedling works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating:

- Collagen production
- Elastin regeneration
- Improved circulation
- Cellular turnover
- Enhanced product absorption

Benefits may include:

- Smoother texture
- Reduced fine lines
- Improved acne scarring
- Brighter complexion
- Firmer, more resilient skin

Treatments are performed with medical-grade precision and tailored to your skin’s condition and tolerance.

Typical Treatment Cadence

- 1 treatment can create visible improvement in tone and texture
- 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart produce the most significant long-term collagen remodeling

Many patients continue with seasonal maintenance treatments for ongoing skin health.

Additional Aesthetic & Skin Support Services

In addition to microneedling, we offer:

- Cosmetic Acupuncture Rejuvenation Facials
- Facial Cupping & Gua Sha for lymphatic drainage and sculpting
- Custom facials incorporating Celluma red light therapy
- Professional treatments using the YINA Skincare line

These therapies improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and support natural glow while addressing underlying internal imbalances when appropriate.

Why Our Approach Is Different

We do not separate skin from the body.

Hormones, digestion, stress, sleep, and inflammation all influence skin health. By addressing both internal balance and external rejuvenation, we create results that are both visible and sustainable.

Marks are already fading

Although this is an acupuncture clinic, I came in for a microneedling treatment and was BLOWN AWAY! Dr. Aleia is very knowledgable, kind and listens to any concern you may have. Although the procedure involves thousands of micro punctures to the face, her touch was very gentle, and the YINA products she used were calming to my sensitive skin, natural and smelled amazing. She payed special attention to my stubborn scarred areas, and the marks are already fading! My skin has been glowing since. Couldn't recommend her enough!
