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!

Foods for Glowing Skin and More…

Foods for Glowing Skin and More…

Looking to Feeling Better AND Look Better, too?…

Look to Foods that help repair collagen, the connective tissues in the face and body.

 

It only makes sense that these same foods help lower inflammation and pain to help lower:

  • Joint pain
  • Headaches
  • General aches and Pains

Read Acupuncture & Other Tips for Joint Pain Here

 

Foods that have:

  • Color variety
  • Fiber
  • EFA’s
  • Water 
  • Antioxidants
  • Antibiotic-free
  • Additives-free

 

Choose natural foods (not packaged nor over-refined).

Eat High fiber, natural foods such as many vegetables like peppers and avocados and pumpkin seeds.

Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s) are necessary to hold up collagen to avoid severe wrinkles and breaking down of tissues in the body (Fish oil, nut oils, etc.)

  • Flax seed/ Flax oil
  • Sardines
  • Mackerel
  • Salmon
  • Walnuts
  • Pumpkin seeds

 

Foods in many (natural) colors:

-Eat colorful, antioxidant-rich foods like blueberries, raspberries (especially for fertility), spinach, kale, peppers

(unless you must avoid nightshades).

 

Avoid food color additives  (unless natural colorings such as beet juice powder)

 

Choose foods like avocados that are rich in fiber and good fat (easy to make guacamole in minutes to dip celery into)

Bell peppers in green, red, yellow and orange make great dipping replacements for chips and go well with hummus. Make your own to avoid hydrogenated oils, too!

Pumpkin seeds are high in EFA’s, fiber and Zinc (great for immunity).

 

Foods High in h20:

Foods high in water content plump the skin all over the body and help avoid dehydration and premature wrinkles.

Hydration also flushes the body, helping keep excess salt from damaging the internal organs, such as the kidneys…

–When kidneys have to overwork due to too much salt, kidneys may be  unable to remove enough water in the body; high blood pressure may result.

 

Avoid meats with antibiotics and additives:

Avoid foods with chemical additives such as added nitrates/nitrites used in deli meats and cheeses (naturally-occurring and celery-based is okay).

These unnatural added nitrates/nitrites can lead to things like gout which is very painful!

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.

Acupuncture Helps Skin Issues (Anoka Pain and Women’s Health)

Acupuncture Improves Skin Issues such as Acne, Dermatitis, Dry Skin, Eczema, Rosacea, Scar tissue, Bell’s Palsy and Shingles.

Acne:

Acne is treated by modern Western medicine with mostly topical remedies which include chemicals to attack the issue.

Acne is treated with acupuncture within Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is focused on the root cause. This allows acupuncture to improve the skin by focusing on helping the body to balance itself and to remain balanced to avoid the return of this issue.

Aleesha is certified in the Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture protocol. This is used to diminish deep wrinkles and erase fine wrinkles. People come in to get help with laugh lines, crow’s feet and lip lines. This is what is known as a 2-for-1 treatment as it treats the body and the face.

More on Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture Here

Contact Aleesha for more information and to get started.

 

Bell’s Palsy

 

Dermatitis:

Acupuncture treats Dermatitis, which is simply inflammation within the skin caused by allergic reaction.

Acupuncture treats Allergies at their root cause!

  • Skin with red appearance
  • Skin with scaly appearance
  • Skin may feel itchy

Examples of Dermatitis:

  • Dander
  • Poison ivy
  • Diaper rash

Is Your Rash Shingles?

Shingles, also known as Herpes Zoster has very good success rates of avoiding nerve damage if treated soon enough with Acupuncture!

Eczema:

Also known as Atopic Dermatitis, Eczema is commonly inherited from a young age. Acupuncture treats Eczema.

Rosacea:

Redness of the skin:

  • Nose
  • Chin
  • Cheeks
  • Forehead

Rosacea can happen in cycles, usually to fair-skinned complexions, and may get worse as you age. Acupuncture treats Rosacea by cooling the heat within the body and then helping the body to maintain this balance.

Dry Skin:

Dry skin can be due to hormonal imbalances during Perimenopause and Menopause or may be caused by Hypothyroidism. Acupuncture is good at helping the body to balance itself when hormones are out of balance and can help improve dry skin.

Dry skin Tip: During the winter months you may need to use more moisturizing products packed with more emollients like the My Zen Goji berry Argan facial cream sold here at Aleesha D Acupuncture.

Scar tissue:

Scar tissue is common from stretch marks, surgeries and injuries. Acupuncture is great at treating scar tissue! In China, it is used on 3rd degree burns-even on babies with the amazing result of little to no scar. It’s true. The sooner you can get acupuncture for scar treatment, the better the outcome, of course. The same holds true for Shingles (with regard to pain relief). Get acupuncture sooner rather than later.

What You Can Do to Help Your Own Skin…

(Skin Tips for Home Care)…

Dermatitis Home Care:

Soak in an oatmeal bath (be sure it is gluten-free if you are sensitive to gluten) and add a high quality moisturizer immediately afterward. Avoid coming in contact with whatever your skin is sensitive to.

 

Rosacea Home Care:

See a dermatologist earlier, rather than later (left un-treated may develop into large, raised red bumps on nose area).

Wear a wide-brimmed hat and use sunscreen with SPF of 30 or higher when in the sun.

Avoid stress if this triggers your Rosacea.

Avoid alcohol if this triggers your Rosacea.

Avoid caffeine if this triggers your Rosacea.

Avoid spicy food if this triggers your Rosacea.

Avoid heat if this triggers your Rosacea.

Be careful what you apply to skin (be wary of chemicals).

 

Dry Skin Home Care:

Use an un-refined oil to hydrate skin (and cook with), such as un-refined coconut oil. Un-refined means all the goodness in it has not been cooked out (refined) into rancid oil (rancidity is then covered up using scent to trick you).

Try a natural vitamin E supplement (check with doctor first, especially if on blood thinners)

Drink lots of water (duh!)

Scar Tissue:

Get acupuncture treatment for scar tissue to increase healing time, decrease scarring, improve pain and circulation to the area.

Shingles:

Get in to have your rash evaluated right away to determine if you have Shingles. Get Acupuncture as soon as possible to relieve pain and help avoid long-term nerve damage.

Skin Care in General:

Salves and ointments are often more soothing and may improve absorption in dry, itching or irritated skin.

When to see a Doctor for skin issues:

Any new, severe skin issue that seems to linger and has you worried.

Any moles that change in uniformity, size, shape or color. (Remember the ABCD’s of Signs of Skin Cancer)…

 

ABCD’s of Possible Skin Cancer:

Assymetrical (not the same on both sides)

Border (irregular shape or poorly defined border)

Color (different shades of color from one part to another)

Diameter (6 mm or larger-size of pencil eraser

 

If You have any of the above changes in a mole on your skin, get in to see it evaluated by your dermatologist.

 

Acupuncture helps skin issues by helping the body to balance itself. Be sure to see a licensed acupuncturist.
