Features: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) beauty is not just about applying cosmetics; rather, it is guided by TCM fundamental theories, characterized by the concepts of "holistic approach" and "syndrome differentiation and treatment." Through the integration of TCM's four diagnostic methods—inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiry, and palpation—symptomatic treatment is administered to regulate the body's physiological state, enhance immune function, and achieve the goals of spot removal, acne treatment, and skin beautification. TCM beauty has a long history, almost co-occurring and developing alongside the medicine of our country. Over thousands of years in the long river of history, generations of medical practitioners have accumulated extensive experience in the field of beauty. This book is compiled as a teaching material for TCM beauty training courses based on the author's decades of experience in scientific research and medical cosmetology. The "syndrome differentiation and medication" section primarily employs products or preparations researched by the author, hoping to inspire readers through them.
