A large number of studies have shown that acupuncture can reduce perioperative pain in patients. Cheek acupuncture therapy is a new acupuncture treatment, which belongs to the microneedle system, that is, acupuncture at specific acupoint on the face, which can relieve patients' pain. In this study, the efficacy and safety of cheek acupuncture in patients undergoing vaginal tightening surgery was verified by observing the consumption of opioid, intraoperative hemodynamics, dosage of oral remedial analgesics, postoperative quality of recovery, patient satisfaction, incidence of side effects, etc.
