I'll admit it: I'm a bit of a skeptic when it comes to things like acupuncture. I'd rather deal with headaches and stress by popping a couple of Aleve or working my way through a heart-pounding Crossfit workout than "focusing on my breathing" or trying "healing yoga." But, could taking a more rounded and holistic approach be the way to go?

I talked to Dr. John J. Kim, L.Ac., O.M.D., founder of ReNuMi Wellness Center and Mila Alexandra Mintsis, licensed acupuncturist at Shift Integrative Medicine on all things acupuncture. It turns out, those little needles can solve a lot more of life's little dilemmas than ibuprofen can, like acne and wrinkles. Consider this your non-new age-y guide to the beauty benefits of sticking needles in your skin.
