It’s true, after just one treatment you won’t see amazing results that will last a long time. However, one of our treatments is still many times more rejuvenating than a traditional spa facial. It’s a great way to give your face some zest before a special night on the town, a wedding, or a big event.
Why don’t we guarantee the whole treatment?
For 2 reasons:
1. Everyone’s expectations are different.
During your free consultation we do our best to communicate realistic expectations to you. But sometimes people still expect miracles. Or sometimes people have different interpretations of what we communicate. There have been instances when even after surgical facelifts, women claim to see no difference! The truth, (according to most eyes) in these cases, is that there was a big difference. But when one of these women looked in the mirror she still saw an ‘ugly’ face. It was her perception of herself. An unfortunate reflection of her low self-esteem. No amount of superficial work would have changed how she perceived herself.
Of course these examples are rare and are extreme cases, but they do highlight the fact that everyone sees and hears things differently.
Because we can never know for sure what your expectations and interpretations are, we do our best to under-promise and over-deliver. Sure many patients tell us that they look 15 years younger after the treatments. But other times, patients respond just as well, but don’t see the changes in themselves. While their friends don’t say anything either. The change is there, but they just don’t see it or hear about it.
2. Everyone responds at different rates and to different degrees.
This is an organic, natural process. We are literally rejuvenating your entire body. We are doing so from the inside out, and from the outside in.
It’s like gardening…If you plant a seed in the spring, you can’t predict with absolute certainty how well that plant will grow.
1. One thing that is important is the quality of soil.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the analogy of the soil is like your body. One person may come to us with very good ‘soil’. Another person may come to us with nutrient depleted soil, dry soil, or water-logged soil.
Someone with fertile soil may look 15 years younger after 15 treatments. While someone who has ‘over-harvested’ their soil, and is now lacking minerals, may take up to 30 treatments for them to look 10 years younger.
2. Back to the plant analogy… If you care for that plant everyday, you will likely be able to predict that it will flourish.
Unfortunately, our control over your care ends when you leave the clinic. That is why we have created as many informational tools as possible, like the 7 Deadly Sins of Skin, and the 13 Secrets of the Fountain of Youth. So that you may use this information to rejuvenate for yourself.
But if you abuse your body and ‘pollute your soil’, then your skin will suffer and the results of treatments will too.
3. Finally, the rate of the results can also be compared to the type of plant that is planted. Some plants take longer to germinate, grow and flower.
This reflects the fact that some people just have faster metabolism and healing responses than other people. I’ve had patients who have looked amazing after just one treatment. While others have taken over 10 treatments to get them to respond equally!
We are dealing with the human body, which is a natural living organism. One of the largest differences between Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western allopathic medicine is that the Chinese look at the body like a garden. While in the West it’s been perceived more as a mechanical vehicle. Western medicine excels at taking out broken pieces and replacing them with spare parts. Cosmetic surgery is like ‘body work’ and ‘detailing’ in the automobile industry.
Whereas cosmetic acupuncture is more like pruning a plant, fertilizing the soil, and watering the roots to produce a beautiful, strong and lush flower.
With patience and cooperation, amazing results really can be achieved. Just as the weather station can’t guarantee the weather, we can’t guarantee how your internal environment will respond to the treatments.
