I have over 20 years experience as an Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbal Medicine Doctor and spent most of that time on the Northern Beaches of Sydney in private practice. I have a Bachelor of Health Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine from UTS and completed an internship at Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital in Zhejiang Province, China in 2003.

I’ve undergone several training courses in Australia in Cosmetic Acupuncture and Facial Rejuvenation with my teacher, Dr Vivian Tan.  Her success with personally developing her product Zilch Acne and Cosmetic Acupuncture Melbourne clinics, has put Vivian at the forefront of Australian Facial rejuvenation. I attended her seminars in 2016, 2017 and 2024 with her Level 1 and Level 2 – advanced techniques training.

I find Dr Tan’s protocols that I’ve been working with since 2016 are natural and practical ways to work with face issues including:

• Dull, dry complexion
• Dark circles under the eyes
• Forehead and frown fine lines
• Tension in the jaw and face muscles
• Marionette lines, sagging and drooping jowls, cheek tone
• Pigmentation and complexion issues
• Fine lines and crepiness
• TMJ and jaw pain
• Bell’s Palsy, facial paralysis
• Trigeminal neuralgia

• Eczema
• Psoriasis
• Teen or Adult Acne and acne scarring
