She said, “Ageing is inevitable, but premature ageing isn’t. The choices you make in your 20s shape how gracefully you age. As an Acupuncturist and Cosmetic Acupuncturist, I believe in a holistic, inside-out approach to youthful skin and long-term vitality,” adding, “Ageing gracefully starts with preventative care — and your 20s are the best time to begin. Invest in mindful habits today for a radiant tomorrow.”

Here are some anti-ageing tips tailored for your 20s, according to Jasmine Modi:

Jasmine said, "Facial acupuncture naturally stimulates collagen production, improves circulation, and prevents fine lines—keeping your skin firm and radiant."

According to Jasmine, stress, poor digestion, and imbalanced Qi accelerate ageing in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). "Acupuncture and herbal remedies restore harmony, reducing inflammation and promoting youthful energy," she said.

"Your skin repairs itself during these golden hours. Acupressure on the yintang (forehead) and kidney 3 (ankle) points enhances deep, restorative sleep," Jasmine added.

Jasmine said, "Eat collagen-rich foods like bone broth, sesame seeds, and walnuts. Hydrate with goji berry tea to replenish skin elasticity."

Daily gua sha massage and acupressure improve lymphatic drainage, sculpt the face, and prevent sagging over time, Jasmine added.
