What is Traditional Chinese facial rejuvenation?

Traditional Chinese facial rejuvenation takes a holistic approach to treatment. It involves noninvasive methods that restore youthfulness to the face through natural, comprehensive means. Holistic Chinese medicine treatments go beyond physical rejuvenation alone. They can also improve hormonal imbalances, delay hair loss and graying that are often associated with aging, and improve sleep quality. Traditional Chinese medicine facial rejuvenation takes a holistic approach to beauty by helping the body not only look younger but feel younger. 

Mainstream facial rejuvenation trends 

Many people turn to facial rejuvenation to erase fine lines and wrinkles, even skin tone, and tighten up loose skin. These mainstream treatments, however, may not be great for your overall health and can cause infections, problems during treatment, or long-term issues. Here are some issues associated with various mainstream treatments:

  • Injectables

This involves invasive injections containing botulinum toxins, such as the famed Botox, and fillers to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. They work by blocking signals from the nerves to the muscles, preventing the muscles in that area from contracting, and often resulting in an unnatural look. 

  • Lasers and light

Non Ablative facial rejuvenation laser treatments stimulate collagen growth and are fairly safe, but not entirely effective. Ablative laser treatment, on the other hand, removes the outer layer of skin and heats the underlying skin to stimulate collagen fiber growth, making the skin appear smoother and tighter. This process can cause redness, swelling, itching, acne, infection, pigmentation, or scarring. 

  • Radiofrequency

Radiofrequency facial rejuvenation can be effective, but there are some downsides to the procedure. Radiofrequency treatments performed improperly can worsen skin problems. Side effects are also possible and include burns, indentations on the skin, scars, hyperpigmentation, infection, lesions, and more. Its heat base process is also not a viable option for those with rosacea or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. 

  • Microneedling

Microneedling involves tiny needle pricks in the skin, which encourage the body to create more collagen and rejuvenate the skin. It can cause scarring, broken capillaries, or infection if performed improperly. 

  • Surgery

Surgery can open the patient up to the risk of infection or scarring, and may not always be effective. 

It is important to fully research all methods of facial rejuvenation in South Florida before making an appointment for treatment. Some may be effective, but they often come with risks. Keeping the risks in mind will help you make the most informed decision when deciding on a treatment method. 

Traditional Chinese facial rejuvenation treatments

Traditional Chinese Medicine approaches beauty from a holistic perspective. It seeks to increase movement, detoxification, and blood flow throughout the body. It is rooted in the principle that wellness should take a comprehensive approach, with health manifesting from the inside out. Successful Traditional Chinese facial rejuvenation treatments that Eacuwell offers include: 

1. Acupuncture

Acupuncture facial treatments cause little to no discomfort as each tiny needle is inserted gently at specific points in the body that contribute to underlying causes of the aging process. The skin reacts to the subtle stimulation and adjusts its energy throughout the entire body. Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is effective for anyone who wants to appear younger and repair their skin. 

2. Facial cupping

Facial cupping is typically performed after acupuncture when the blood is flowing and the energy in the body is moving. Special facial cups are used to increase localized circulation to the skin, drain stagnant fluids, bring collagen up to the surface, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, puffiness, and dark circles. Cupping increases the blood flow, brings nourishment to the muscles and skin, and helps it regain its youthful appearance. It can also help relieve TMJ and sinus pressure.

3. Facial gua sha

Jade gua sha boards are used to invigorate the skin by smoothing out wrinkles and increasing blood flow and collagen production. They aid in the detoxification of the face by assisting in the movement of stagnant blood, energy, and inflammation. Gua sha is a key element in Traditional Chinese facial rejuvenation because of its ability to aid the appearance of the neck and jowls.
