Mei Zen cosmetic acupuncture
What if you could get a facelift without surgery, drugs, chemicals, or recovery time?
Mei Zen means “beautiful person” and is based on ancient Chinese medicine practices and principles. Through a minimally invasive needling technique, Mei Zen rebuilds the elastin and collagen matrix of the skin. In other words, each needle creates a micro trauma that stimulates the dermis (aka the “brain” of the skin) to rebuild itself with new skin.
Everyone I would see would literally ask me what I was doing. What have you been using on your face? Even my kids said I looked like I was ‘glowing’!

Supplements
It is widely known that taking a high quality multi-vitamin and fish oil, as well as other supplements to address deficiencies, contribute to healthy skin, hair, and nails. Our skin is only as healthy as our cells, which is why I prescribe supplements from USANA Health Sciences, which are formulated by scientists who are experts in cellular nutrition. Taking your customized USANA supplement regimen daily will enhance your Mei Zen results.

Herbs
There are many Chinese herbs traditionally used to enhance, nourish, and heal the skin. After your initial treatment, where I will evaluate your tongue and pulse and complete a detailed intake, I can prescribe one to two herbal formulas that will address the root imbalance that is causing or contributing to any skin or health condition. Taking your customized Chinese herbal regimen will enhance your Mei Zen results.
$32 per bottle, lasts 10-14 days
FAqs
-
If you’ve never seen me for acupuncture, you’ll need to schedule an Initial Treatment here, and then you can schedule all ten (or twelve if you’re doing the abdominal treatments) of your Mei Zen treatments using the same link. Make sure to schedule your Mei Zen treatments twice a week for five weeks, with at least two days between each treatment. If you’re an established patient at Intersectional Fertility, you can go ahead and schedule all ten or twelve of your Mei Zen treatments without scheduling an Initial Treatment first.
-
Yes, definitely! You can even keep your eye makeup on during each treatment, as I won’t touch your eyes at all. Just come with no foundation on, and you can reapply afterwards if you’d like. Or go foundation-free for the day and enjoy your results!
-
Mei Zen treatment uses small needles in specific acupuncture points on the face, neck, or abdomen. Each needle causes a micro-trauma in the dermis and triggers the collagen matrix to activate and re-build. That’s why the results are so dramatic and lasting–your body actually makes new skin! From a Chinese medicine point of view, Mei Zen treatments increase Qi (energy) and Blood flow to the face, neck or abdomen, while also balancing the organ systems in your body via specific acupuncture points.
-
Facial and neck Mei Zen treatments are safe during pregnancy, but not recommended. From a Chinese medicine point of view, Mei Zen treatments are not recommended during pregnancy because we don’t want to divert Qi (energy) and Blood from your Uterus while it’s doing the important work of growing a baby. However, abdominal Mei Zen treatments are wonderful and encouraged for boosting fertility and increasing your ability to conceive! Just make sure to finish your 12 treatments before trying to conceive, or take a break from trying.
-
Depending on your age, how you care for your skin and overall health, and the level of toxins you are exposed to on a daily basis, Mei Zen results can last 3-5 years with maintenance. If you are over fifty years old, results can last 1-2 years. Recommended maintenance for any age is one Mei Zen treatment per month.
-
Yes, recommended maintenance is one Mei Zen treatment per month, after you’ve finished the 10-treatment (or 12-treatment abdominal) protocol. You will receive a rose quartz facial roller that will also help to maintain your results. If you choose to incorporate my dietary, supplement, herbal, and/or skin care product recommendations, those will all help to maintain your results as well.
