About Shellie Goldstein, M.S., L.Ac.

Shellie Goldstein is widely considered one of the leading worldwide experts on cosmetic facial acupuncture. She has been dubbed the "acupuncturist to the stars" by her executive patients and celebrity clientele in Manhattan and the Hamptons.

Throughout her extensive career, Ms. Goldstein has been an innovator in the fields of acupuncture and skin care therapy. She has combined her broad training in Western Medicine, Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, Nutrition, and Esthetics to develop the trademarked AcuFacial®, AcuFacial®Lift, and AcuFacial®Resculpting techniques. These pioneering acupuncture treatments reduce fine lines and wrinkles, eliminate double chins, lift sagging facial muscles, and rejuvenate dull, lifeless, or aging skin. Her unique therapies are considered an alternative or adjunct to BOTOX® injections, dermal fillers, and invasive cosmetic surgery. In contrast to traditional Western approaches, these methods also improve overall vitality and health.

Shellie’s AcuFacial® was called "one of the hottest applications of acupuncture," by Harper's Bazaar. In May 2008, Ms. Goldstein was featured on MARTHA. Her innovative healing techniques have also drawn the attention of magazines such as New York Magazine, Body + Soul, Health, Lucky, American Spa, Town & Country Travel, BoHo, Elle Italia, the Japanese Press. It has also been highlighted in local newspapers, websites, and blogs such as cosmeticsurgery.com, columbianews.com, healthday.com, and bellasugar.com. She was voted the "Best of the Best" by readers of Dan's Papers in the Hamptons for three years.
