My Approach

Hi, I'm Ahri La, DAOM, L.Ac., founder of Needles & Glow.

As a Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, I am passionate about helping people look and feel their best through a thoughtful blend of traditional East Asian medicine and modern aesthetic treatments. My approach focuses on enhancing your natural beauty while supporting overall wellness from within.

My interest in aesthetics began long before my acupuncture career. As a formerly licensed esthetician in Korea, I developed a deep appreciation for skincare, facial rejuvenation, and the philosophy behind natural beauty. Today, I combine that background with advanced training in acupuncture to offer treatments such as cosmetic acupuncture, microneedling, and personalized wellness care.

At Needles & Glow, every treatment is tailored to your unique concerns and goals. Whether you're seeking healthier skin, graceful aging support, or overall balance, my goal is to provide results-driven care in a calm, welcoming environment where you can relax, heal, and glow with confidence.

I look forward to being part of your wellness and beauty journey.

Ahri La, DAOM, L.Ac.
