WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT Cosmetic Rejuvenation Acupuncture System™
Case history – 56 y /o female with 20+ year history of smoking.  Deep lines above and around lips, nasolabial fold, cheek and jaw area.

I am a woman who prides myself in “being the best that I can”.  To ensure that I can accomplish the best, I work out regularly and consistently adhere to healthy eating habits.  In recent years I have also been looking into cosmetic improvements.  In my research I discovered “cosmetic acupuncture”.  To further understand what cosmetic acupuncture was all about, I scheduled a consultation with Denise Ellinger, L.Ac.  Denise explained the perimeters and expectations of cosmetic acupuncture. The process would take five weeks, ten treatments and the results may sustain for three to five years depending on an individuals general health and lifestyle. The five weeks process, two treatments per week, began with great expectations on my part. Initially I did not see major improvements in my facial features.  After about two weeks I began to see improvement in my facial cosmetics. The first improvement that I experienced was fullness returning to my cheeks.  After a few more treatments I saw a nice glow in my face, natural color in my cheeks.  In the final weeks the lines around my mouth became softer and my upper eyelids became fuller. The area where I would have liked to see more or greater cosmetic improvement is around my eyes.  Denise further instructed me in sustaining a healthy lifestyle, skin care and acupuncture maintenance. In summary, my experience has been very positive and I would recommend acupuncture for cosmetic reasons and health improvement. The added bonus in my acupuncture experience is that Denny has assisted me in achieving a healthier lifestyle. I have been eating healthier and sleeping more relaxed.

P.H. 		  Being 57 years old I wanted to look the best I could without having full-fledged plastic surgery. There were two compelling reasons I did not rush to spend thousands and thousands of dollars at a plastic surgeons office, (1) I was deathly afraid of the surgery and (2) all my friends who had had various surgical procedures including botox seemed to be missing something even if their surgery was “good”. I figured out that the “something” was radiance to their skin, a sense of well-being. It is my opinion that people who have plastic surgery do stand out in a crowd and not always for the right reason. It was about this time in my thought process that I met Denise Ellinger and she told me about facial cosmetic acupuncture. The information she presented me with addressed all my concerns. Denise was very well versed on the topic and I felt she was uniquely qualified to perform this series of procedures not only for her competency as an acupuncturist because of her many years of experience in the cosmetic surgery field.
I began the series of treatments and almost immediately I began getting compliments about “how good I looked” or that my “skin was glowing”. I wish to add that this procedure was being done at a time when my life was in turmoil with family illnesses and traveling back and forth between coasts. It was a lifestyle that shattered me both physically and emotionally. After several treatments I began to notice my energy had increased considerably, so not only did I look better but my quality of life improved significantly. I highly recommend Denise as an acupuncturist and the cosmetic acupuncture procedure for those people who are seeking an alternative to the high cost and risk of cosmetic surgery and are striving for an overall sense of wellness. S.R. Practitioner note: Patient had good skin quality and tone. The stress was taking a toll on the elasticity of the skin, her shen (spirit reflected in the eyes) and translucency of her skin.
Case history – bleeding ulcer, rosacea, asthma.  Practitioner note: Improvement of heat symptoms and breathing related to Lung/Large Intestine being balanced.

Denny,

I just wanted to let you know how much of a difference the cosmetic acupuncture made. 

I am getting carded @ nearly 36 years old.  I haven't been carded for years.  My rosacea is much calmer, I don't have the extreme redness in my cheeks where everyone is always asking me if I am OK. 

I have also always had a problem with heat tolerance.  Summers and warm rooms have caused me discomfort.  Treatment has corrected this to an extent where I no longer feel I have to weigh going out versus being uncomfortable in a public area. 

As a bonus - the acupuncture treatments that I received also have improved my breathing.  With being treated for asthma my medical doctor measures my breathing levels at my yearly exams.  My numbers in this have gone up, leaving my general practice doctor impressed. 

Thank you so much!! 
T.B.		 As a mature professional woman, I have worked for over three decades in the Mental Health field. This is a very demanding job that requires a great deal of patience in many stressful situations. Over the past years, I have noticed a decrease in energy and an excessive stress response that showed in facial tension, wrinkles and lack of color in my face. I began treatments with Denise Ellinger some months ago which focused on the face. We met over a period of weeks in which she provided a “non surgical face lift” using multiple needles, 2x a week for 5 weeks. I noticed immediately an improvement in my stress level, more physical energy and a decrease in surface aging in both color and wrinkle deposits on my face. As we continued, my face showed more and more healthy color and diminished wrinkled areas. I had several areas of aging pigmentation on my face that began to diminish. As we continued, those areas of discoloration almost completely disappeared. At the end of the intensive treatment, I had a monthly follow up session for a period of time. Amazingly, I still feel that the youthful rejuvenation that I saw on my face is continuing. I can see that this might be a treatment that could be repeated every 6 months to once a year as needed. I am still feeling the increased energy, the stamina and the youthful outlook that I found as we began the treatment. I would highly recommend this protocol to others who are feeling worn out, unenergized and overstressed from long periods of intense and demanding work. People are still saying to me, “you look so rested, have you just come back from vacation?”
L.T.

Case history: 42 y/o female with history of browlift, and subsequent scalp reduction presented issues of qi stagnation in face area.

During and after my ten-session series of cosmetic acupuncture treatments, I experienced positive changes in my skin and improvements in some health problems. The primary change I noticed in my skin was that it looks much more vibrant than it did before. Also, there is a minor increase in firmness in the mid-face area. My digestion improved significantly, and my monthly cycles (which had been irregular) went back to normal. In addition, I noticed a subtle but consistent improvement in mood and energy level.
