Guest guest Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Hello, Does anyone know of any good resources for learning acupuncture based facial rejuvenation. Or does anyone know the general intent/approach of it? I have heard of horizontal needling along the wrinkles, but that sounds very painful. Thanks, Blaise -- Blaise Ryan blaiseryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Blaise: I've got a textbook on TCM cosmetology in English written by a professor at a beauty college, but which was obviously financed to sell a brand of TCM products. From memory, part of this describes how to treat acne, warts, other facial blemishes, part is diet. Some substances can help relieve wrinkles. Tuina massage includes aspects devoted to the face. Massaging points around the eyes and mouth can help smooth areas. There are a number of acupoints that can relieve wry face or facial distortion. Haven't seen surface needling to eliminate wrinkles.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 TCM Cosmetology (Zhong Yi Mei Rong Xue). It's a good book, but the author is using this to promote her line of beauty products. Caveat emptor.
