Natural Facial Rejuvenation & the Aging of Skin
September 4, 2020
Intrinsic Factors are the internal factors that act as ticking clock on your natural aging processes that occur with the passage of time. They are also affected by free radicals in our body that lead to oxidative damage and increased signs of aging. This is WHY antioxidant supplements have become so popular. Our favorite antioxidant supplement is Glutathione Ultra, which you can learn more about at https://wfhnaturalpharmacy.com/products/glutathione-ultra?_pos=1&_sid=9d7644df7&_ss=r
Extrinsic Factors are environmental factors that affect aging. Significant aging agents include: Sun exposure, cigarette smoke, poor nutrition, caffeine, stress, harsh soaps, and sleep deprivation.
The process of aging in order is:
- Dryness
- Sun Damage
- Thinning
- Loss of Firmness
At any stage cosmetic acupuncture and natural facial rejuvenation is indicated.
Your skin is ALIVE! From a TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) perspective the lungs influence the pores, body hair, and sweat. Spleen and Stomach influence the adipose tissue (fat cells) and moisture of the skin. Kidney’s influence moisture and the defensive Qi (immune system) that is between the skin and the muscles. Liver influences moisture and luster of skin. Heart influences moisture and blood vessels.
But what does that mean?! We’re glad you asked!
This means that your beauty begins from the inside out. Your organ systems influence how your skin looks on the outside. You can do 101 types of outward peels, scrubs, creams, etc. but it will not provide the type of long-lasting beauty that you are seeking because you are not treating the internal signs of aging.
How we treat the internal signs of aging based on symptoms and appearance of skin:
- If you are experiencing dryness in your skin, we will treat the kidneys, liver, and heart through cosmetic acupuncture.
- If you are experiencing sun damage, the focus of your acupuncture treatments will focus on the lungs, heart, and liver.
- If you are experiencing saggy skin, thinning and loss of firmness, we will treat your stomach and spleen with cosmetic acupuncture.
What if you are experiencing ALL symptoms and signs of aging?
There are a lot of different reasons why you may be experiencing all signs of aging, in this case, we treat your WHOLE body with a full body acupuncture treatment along with cosmetic acupuncture.
With these treatments, you can expect your natural beauty enhanced, while simultaneously treating other conditions and symptoms you may be experiencing.
