The ancients called it “face care”, which is essentially the anti-aging of the face to maintain a “youthful appearance”, making people overflowing with beauty and vitality.
The face is the place where the qi and blood of the internal organs are injected, with rich blood circulation. The heart is the master of blood, and its flower is in the face. Suwen – Impotence says: “Twelve meridians, three hundred and sixty-five veins, whose blood and qi all go up to the face and take the empty orifices.” Chinese medicine also classifies different parts of the face into five organs, namely, the left cheek belongs to the liver, the right cheek to the lung, the forehead to the heart, the chin to the kidney and the nose to the spleen. It can be seen that the relationship between the face and the internal organs and meridians is very close, especially the heart and the face are the most important.
Likewise, changes in the face can reflect the vitality and pathology of the heart meridians. The face is exposed to the upper part of the body, the six evil spirits invade the human body, the face is the first to bear the brunt, of which the most harmful is the wind evil. The seven emotions are too extreme, exceeding the normal physiological range of the human body, resulting in disorders of the body’s qi, the internal organs of yin and yang qi and blood disorders, depression in the face meridians, affecting the face.

There is also acupuncture beauty, through acupuncture to stimulate acupuncture points, adjust the function of the internal organs and tissues, promote the flow of qi and blood, to resist the invasion of external evil and delay the aging of the skin. It is generally believed that there are seven meridians that are effective for beauty: foot sun bladder meridian, foot less Yin kidney meridian, foot Turk’s Yin liver meridian, foot Yangming stomach meridian, hand Shaoyang Sanjiao meridian, hand sun small intestine meridian, hand Yangming large intestine meridian. The formula can be adjusted according to the specific situation by identifying the acupuncture points. For example, to prevent or remove wrinkles, acupuncture can be applied to Silkworm, Zanzhu, Sun, Yingxiang, Chee Che, and Cataract, with Zhonggu, Hegu, Quchi, Foot Sanli, Stomach Yu, Guan Yuan, and Leigu, etc. Its function can benefit Qi and Blood and increase skin elasticity.
