Facial Rejuvenation May Include one to two of the following Modalities:
Depending upon time constraints, needs of individual, and the best combination. Therapies can be alternated between treatments.
Mei Zen Facial Cosmetic Acupuncture
The science shows as the needles puncture the skin, they create microtraumas. These tiny punctures stimulate your lymphatic and circulatory systems to deliver the nutrients and oxygen your skin cells need for better health from the inside out.
Tuning Fork Facial
We use the power of essential oils & tuning forks. clear & energize chakra-meridian centers sound healing-smooth skin, relieve congestion, lymph drainage, relaxation
Professional Microneedling
Treats wrinkles, age spots, pores, scars, skin tone. Micro-Needling stimulates collagen production and new skin cells. You will see reduction of fine lines and wrinkles! Recommended 1 time per month. Frequency depends upon area treated like face, scalp, or abdomen. It also depends upon the healing speed of the individual. It can be 1-4 times per month.
Lifting & Sculpting Facial Massage
The most important part to help relax tense muscles, return normal muscle tone, improve lymphatic drainage, and return shape of face to normal. NeoLifting facial massage, Buccal Massage, or Gua Sha Skin rubbing.
Professional Facial Cupping
Decongesting effect. Allows movement of impurities, and toxins via better blood and lymph flow. Improved oxygenation and blood supply, nutrient supply. Allows for cellular regeneration and repair. It can Neuro modulate the nerve. Removes adhesions, and nerve compressions. This is from the effect of tissue detachment allowing release of fascia and contracted muscles. Assists Facial nerve paralysis. Increased absorption of skin care products.
Gua Sha Compression Facial
Can be translated as skin rubbing. Other practitioners often refer to Gua Sha as Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IAST). As cupping lifts the skin up and away from underlying tissue, the gua sha tool is pressed into the skin, and muscles as you glide along treatment areas. It can help with deep wrinkles, sagging, facial discoloration and under eye puffiness. • Detoxifies the face • Great for Rosacea • Very beneficial for lip wrinkles, crow's feet, Nasolabial folds and forehead lines.
What is Micro-Needling?
Micro-Needling is the insertion of exceptionally fine short needles into the skin for the purpose of facial and skin rejuvenation. The premise is simple – create a small wound and the skin will respond with collagen production and new skin cells. Depending on the depth of the needle penetration, this can offer the simple enhancement of product absorption, reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, to the clinical treatment of scars and acne.
Energy Light Facial Rejuvenation
In between micro-needling sessions you can also experience Energy-Light facial rejuvenation (ELR). The device I use is an Acutron. The probes produce a gentle microcurrent along with color light therapy.
I have been using this needless method of cosmetic acupuncture for several years. Acupuncture points are stimulated on the face that have a direct connection to your organs and glands. I am sure you will love the results.
Treatments generally are 20-30 minutes. Energy-Light Facial Rejuvenation™ (ELR) is a complete therapeutic treatment that benefits the whole body, not only the skin and face.
Take a more detailed look at how natural facial rejuvenation and micro-needling works.
The Micro-Needle Pen head
A sterile pin head with fine short needles is used to create many microscopic channels deep into the dermis of the skin, which stimulate your own body to produce new collagen.
Why Micro-Needling?
This is a natural way to rejuvenate the collagen (protein) in the skin without painful surgery, or toxic injections into your skin. It is also known as skin needling, collagen induction therapy (CIT), and percutaneous collagen induction (PCI). The principle behind Micro and Nano-Needling Therapy is to stimulate the body’s own production of collagen and elastin, thereby reducing wrinkles, scars and improving skin texture. It also encourages
absorption of your favorite topical serum by 2000%! A sterile pin head with fine short needles is used to create many microscopic channels deep into the dermis of the skin, which stimulate your own body to produce new collagen. These channels also improve the penetration of serums such as Vitamins C , E, Hyaluronic Acid, and Apple-Stem-Cells about 1000 times. Vitamins C, E, Hyaluronic Acid, and Apple-stem-cells stimulate skin renewal, thereby, making the skin appear fresher and younger. In our clinic we use professional micro-needling pens that allow us to control the depth, and speed of the device. The professional pen is advanced, and it provides greater outcomes with less adverse reactions than a dermal roller. The pen head oscillates up and down at a great speed, which reduces the sensitivity of the skin. It provides smoother penetration without scratching or injuring the epidermis.
