Dr. Mason Martinez, DACM, L.Ac.
Dr. Mason Martinez, DACM, L.Ac. provides cosmetic acupuncture and facial rejuvenation treatments at Totality Holistics in East Dallas. Her approach draws from Chinese medicine while incorporating modern understanding of skin physiology, facial anatomy and healthy aging. Treatments are individualized based on your skin concerns, overall health and goals.
A Whole-Person Approach
Skin does not exist separately from the rest of the body. During your consultation, Mason considers your skin goals alongside factors such as stress, sleep, lifestyle and overall health to create an individualized treatment plan. Rather than addressing the face in isolation, her approach looks at the broader picture — circulation, muscle tension, rest, nutrition and your health history — to understand what may be influencing your skin's appearance and well-being.
Treatments Offered
Understanding the Treatment
Cosmetic acupuncture uses very fine acupuncture needles placed at selected points on the face and body. Treatment is designed to support facial relaxation, circulation, skin appearance and overall well-being while remaining consistent with the broader principles of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Needling may stimulate localized tissue responses associated with skin remodeling, although individual results vary.
Facial Acupuncture
Facial acupuncture is a component of cosmetic acupuncture that focuses fine needles at specific points on the face, often combined with body points as part of a constitutional treatment. Patients may seek facial acupuncture for concerns such as the appearance of fine lines, facial tension and muscle tightness, uneven skin tone and texture, puffiness, and general facial rejuvenation. Sessions are individualized — Mason considers your overall health pattern alongside your skin goals.
Microneedling
Microneedling uses a specialized device to create controlled superficial microchannels in the skin. It is distinct from acupuncture, although both may be incorporated into a broader cosmetic treatment plan when appropriate. At Totality Holistics, microneedling is performed by Dr. Mason Martinez as part of her cosmetic acupuncture practice. Patients commonly seek microneedling for skin texture, the appearance of fine lines, uneven tone, the appearance of acne scars, and overall skin rejuvenation. Individual results vary.
Chinese Medicine & Skin
Chinese medicine has a long history of addressing skin and appearance as part of whole-person health. Modern practitioners are not limited to historical explanations alone. Mason's approach combines her training in Chinese medicine with contemporary knowledge of anatomy, physiology, skin care and current research. This integration is what distinguishes cosmetic acupuncture at Totality from a generic med-spa treatment — it is grounded in a complete system of medicine, not a standalone cosmetic procedure.
Our Philosophy
At Totality, cosmetic acupuncture is not about chasing an unrealistic version of youth. The goal is to support healthy-looking skin, facial relaxation and confidence while respecting the natural aging process. Mason's approach honors where you are — working with your skin and body as they are now, rather than against them.
Common Reasons Patients Seek Treatment
Patients commonly seek cosmetic acupuncture for a range of skin and facial concerns. These are goals, not guarantees — individual responses vary based on health history, lifestyle and treatment frequency.
