Facial Acupuncture for Wrinkles (in a Nutshell)…

Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture

Facial Acupuncture for Wrinkles (in a Nutshell)…

How Acupuncture Treats Wrinkles

-Wrinkles form when collagen becomes weakened in the skin’s dermis layer and eventually folds over on itself

(like a piece of paper folded too many times makes a sharp crease).

 

-Many tiny Acupuncture needles are inserted into the face. These create minor micro injuries to the targeted (wrinkle) area.

 

-These micro injuries stimulate the body to build collagen in the area, repairing the dermis in a sort of defense mechanism, resulting in improved elasticity with smoother, more toned skin overall.

 

It is similar to how muscle fibers break down with tiny tears after lifting weights.

The repairing process takes place afterwards, especially during sleep as the muscle fibers build back up in strength. 

Pretty cool, huh?

 

 

Collagen Production 

Facial Acupuncture prompts the body to build collagen in the face.

This improves elasticity and decreases appearance of fine lines and wrinkles,

such as crow’s feet around the eyes and smile lines “parentheses” lines also known as nasolabial fold (Latin for nose-lip fold),

marionette lines (lines that extend down from the mouth to the jaw), and forehead wrinkles.

 

Aleesha D Acupuncture uses the Mei Zen protocol in which more than 50 very tiny needles are inserted into the face. This protocol also treats the entire body. Needles are added in the hands and feet, legs and arms to treat the whole individual as she presents. So, digestion, energy, sleep, hormonal support and more can be treated at the same time!

Aleesha Ackerman, LAc treats fine facial wrinkles using the famous cosmetic acupuncture protocol of Mei Zen.

This protocol is also known as My Zen. This cosmetic facial acupuncture protocol is the only protocol that uses more than fifty needles inserted into the face with acupuncture needles inserted elsewhere in the body. Not to worry-these needles are tiny!

This cosmetic facial treatment that treats the entire body, not just the face.

So, we are addressing other systems in the body simultaneously as needed. Digestion for instance, may need some care shown to it during the treatment. This protocol treats your face and your body…It truly is a two-for-one acupuncture treatment!

What Are People Saying About Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture?

What Are People Saying About Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture?

Patients report to me that their friends and relatives remark on how happy and healthy they look.

Then their friends ask them what they are doing differently.

They ask if they have changed their diet or started an exercise routine.

 

What Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture is…

Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture uses tiny acupuncture needles which are placed in the face.

These needles create “micro injuries” which tells the body to build collagen in the needled area.

More needles placed in more areas, means more collagen-building. 

Large quantity of needles ensures that more surface area of the face is addressed.

The Mei Zen protocol is the only one to use this many needles!

 

At Aleesha D Acupuncture, the Mei Zen protocol is used on for Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture.

Collagen for Healthier Skin, Digestion and Joints!

Collagen Powder for Healthier Skin, Digestion and Joints!

Have you heard a lot of buzz lately about collagen? Are You Looking for something easy to take that can help you feel better and look better, too? Many patients rave about how they can tell a difference in the fullness of their face after taking collagen.

How do you build Collagen in your body?

Collagen hydrolysate powder can help build collagen from the “inside-out.” This tasteless powder mixes into warm water easily. It works the same as the gelatinous substance found in your homemade chicken stock-except it is even more easily digestible!

Where does Collagen Build in your Body?

Taking collagen as a supplement goes to work in your joints and the infrastructure of collagen building in the face, as in filling out the face for wrinkle prevention. Think of collagen as a matrix of built-up netting. This is what makes a baby’s face so full and kissable! It is also one of the easiest proteins to digest. For easiest assimilation in the gut, take the “hydrolysate” powder form. This is key to those of us who have less than ideal digestive systems for a host of reasons, such as auto-immune issues like Hoshimoto’s Hypothryoidism. 

Aleesha D Acupuncture now carries Collagen hydrolysate powder by Great Lakes brand, one of the most top-rated and least inexpensive of the collagens on the market. It is grass-fed and pasture-raised. Stop by and pick up a canister or on-the-go packets for travel. Aleesha never travels without it!
