Chinese medicine teaches that the face is a mirror of our health. According to the traditional face map, the individual areas of the face are connected to internal organs. If pimples, redness, or rashes appear on them, the body is signaling an imbalance. This approach today finds application not only in alternative medicine, but increasingly in dermatology.
Forehead – bladder and small intestine
Acne on the forehead may be related to slow digestion and overloaded intestines. Excessive consumption of sweets, fats, alcohol, and lack of sleep have an influence.
Solution: drink plenty of water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and allow yourself quality sleep.
Between the eyebrows – liver
Problems between the eyebrows indicate an overburdened liver, often due to consuming fatty foods or alcohol. It can also be an allergic reaction to a certain food.
Solution: include light meals in your diet, spend more time outdoors, and try relaxation techniques.
Under the eyes – kidneys
Dark circles and puffiness under the eyes are often a sign of weakened kidneys or poor blood circulation. A common cause is also excessive alcohol consumption and smoking.
Solution: limit caffeine and alcohol, drink clean water, and support the kidneys with herbal teas.
Nose and area above the lips – heart
A red nose or pimples around it may be related to high blood pressure or elevated cholesterol. A bloated stomach or polluted environment also contributes.
Solution: monitor your blood pressure, detoxify your body, drink green tea, and exercise regularly.
Upper part of the cheeks – lungs
Acne on the upper parts of the cheeks is associated with the lungs. The most common culprits are smoking, asthma, and poor air quality.
Solution: avoid cigarettes and spend more time in fresh air.
Lower cheeks – stomach and kidneys
Redness and rashes on the lower cheeks point to poor eating habits and an overburdened stomach. Excessive stress can also be a cause.
Solution: limit fast food and sweets, and pay attention to the quality of the cosmetics you use.
Chin and mouth – stomach and large intestine
Pimples in the chin area are related to digestion and sometimes hormonal imbalance. Triggers are usually greasy and sweet foods or staying up late.
Solution: eat light meals, drink plenty of fluids, and limit alcohol and coffee.
Jaw and neck – hormones
Rashes in the jaw and neck area often indicate hormonal fluctuations. They can also appear with dehydration or excessive intake of salt and caffeine.
Solution: maintain proper hydration, reduce salt, coffee, and spicy foods.
Conclusion
The face map is a practical tool that helps to better understand the signals from our body. If skin problems recur, it may be a reason to adjust your lifestyle and diet. However, remember that this method does not replace a medical diagnosis – for long-term issues always consult a specialist.
