I guess when it comes to looking good, there’s nothing we women WON’T try, on the recent episode of Kourtney & Kim Take Miami, the reality star tried a “Vampire Facial” using her own blood!
The Process: “A large needle drew blood from her arm before the sample was spun in a machine to remove the platelets. When this is done, the blood was then splattered into Kim’s face using nine tiny little acupuncture-style needles. But first she had to slap on some numbing cream in a bid to ease the pain.The results left her looking like she had been in the classic horror flick – or a car crash, with blood spots all over face.
The treatment is called “Vampire Facial” because it uses the patient’s own blood to make improvements to the skin. The plasma from the blood is then extracted and used in the non-invasive procedure, with the aim of rejuvenating the skin. The technique is an updated version of the traditional ‘vampire facelift’, which involves a series of painful injections into the face.”
