Face mapping: understanding the origin of your pimples, imperfections, and acne

To effectively treat skin problems like acne, it's crucial to understand their origin. This is where face mapping comes in. This method allows for the analysis of different facial zones, from the forehead to the chin, including the cheekbones, where skin imperfections can appear. By identifying the affected areas, one can determine the internal imbalances that are often responsible. By understanding these causes, it becomes possible to adjust certain daily habits to promote healthier skin.

Backed by scientific research, we explain face mapping to you.

What is face mapping?

Face mapping is a method inspired by traditional Chinese medicine that involves analyzing facial areas where pimples, imperfections, and acne appear, to understand the internal imbalances responsible for them. According to this practice, each facial zone is associated with an internal organ or body system, which helps identify the underlying causes of skin problems.

This technique is based on the idea that our skin reflects our internal health. Thus, pimples and imperfections that appear on the face can be a sign of imbalances in the body, such as digestive issues, hormonal fluctuations, or an excess of toxins.

Face mapping is therefore a valuable tool for those looking to treat their skin problems holistically, by addressing not only visible symptoms but also their root causes. By understanding the correlations between facial zones and internal organs, it becomes possible to adopt personalized skincare strategies to regain healthy, radiant skin.

  • Pimple between the eyebrows

This area is often associated with liver-related issues. High cholesterol levels can contribute to pimples appearing between the eyebrows.

Pimples on the chin are generally linked to a hormonal imbalance or hormonal fluctuations in women, especially during the premenstrual period.
