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 injections, as well “non-invasive” procedures, like micro-dermabrasion, are being used to create a youthful appearance. These procedures only address the “outside,” can be expensive, and carry significant risks.

Unlike these other treatments, Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture System utilizes an ancient technique without the risk. The needling is very superficial and brings increased energy and blood to the face while improving or increasing 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.

Here are some of the results clients can expect from the Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture System
