How does Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture Work?

Many factors contribute to the visible signs of aging, including sun damage, smoking, stress, diet and lifestyle. The skin is our largest organ and reflects the state of our internal health. It is the only organ that we have to take care of from both the inside and outside. In Chinese Medicine, the state of physical health, emotions, and spirit is reflected on the skin, particularly on the skin of the face. You look your best when your healthy inside reflects on your face!

Today, face lifts, brow lifts, tummy tucks, liposuction, laser resurfacing, chemical peels, various modes of injectable therapy, like Botox or Restalyne, and "non-invasive" procedures, like micro-dermabrasion, are being used to create a youthful appearance. These procedures only address the "outside", can be expensive, and can carry significant risks.

The Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture System utilizes an ancient needling technique that is very superficial. The needling brings increased energy and blood to the face and can improve or increase the production of collagen and elastin. Since this system is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Mei Zen Practitioner also uses acupuncture point selections on the body to complete the balancing of energy. This results in an overall rejuvenating effect of body, mind and spirit. Diet, lifestyle, and skincare are also evaluated and addressed.

Testimonials

One of our clients recently contacted us about their results with cosmetic acupuncture:

I have recently lost 25 pounds and I feel GREAT! However, I felt like I didn't look on the outside what I was feeling on the inside. I am 44 years old. I used to smoke and drink. But most importantly, I have been a sun worshiper! Twice a year I would go to Florida, with no sunscreen, would fish all year round, with no sunscreen, would lay out by the pool, with no sunscreen, tan (fake and bake) all for that HEALTHY GLOW and even go boating, WITH NO SUNSCREEN. Do you see a pattern? All this abuse was starting to show. Since starting my Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments, I have had more compliments then ever before. I now TRULY have a healthy glow. — Lynda S., Algonquin, IL
