bizarre facialsHow far would you go to keep looking young and flawless? Turns out, when it comes to skin and looks, women can go to any lengths to stay young. Bizarre treatments like sperm facials and urine therapy have many takers indeed. According to a recent survey, British women aged 30 and above preferred placenta face masks the most as an anti-ageing treatment followed by bee venom and vampire facials. Here’s a list of the top 10 unusual anti-ageing treatments women are open to trying out if provided free of cost.

This face mask uses stem cells from a sheep’s placenta to boost collagen and tighten the skin. Also Read - 7 reasons why the #BeefBan is good

Bee venom – 41 per cent

This treatment supposedly smoothes out wrinkles and fools the skin to produce more collagen by rushing the blood by creating a stinging feeling.

Vampire face masks – 39 per cent

This facial involves drawing out blood out of one’s body and injecting it back in the face which creates platelet-rich plasma. This removes fine lines and can be done before going out for an event as the results are instant.

Leeches – 38 per cent

Demi Moore has admitted to undergoing this treatment. It involves placing leeches on your face and letting them detoxify your blood giving you a fresher and younger looking face.

Sperm facial– 30 per cent

Research points out that a component called spermine present in semen is rich in anti-oxidants and when applied on the face, can prevent the skin from ageing and give it a smoother texture.

Bird poo facial – 25 per cent

Bird droppings are put on your face mixed with other ingredients to prevent the skin from ageing. Also known as the Geisha Facial as it originated in Japan, many celebs have undergone this treatment to look younger including style icon Victoria Beckham aka Posh.

Cryotherapy treatment – 21 per cent

Demi Moore is certainly adventurous when it comes to facials. She’s tried this one too. Cryotherapy essentially involves exposing yourself to extremely low temperatures (as low as -140 degrees) for a short duration of time. Apparently, this eliminates toxins from the body, helps regenerate tissues and stimulates collagen production.

Cactus massage – 19 per cent

Nope, don’t worry; the thorns are removed from the leaf before the treatment. This massage is supposed to detoxify the skin and hydrate and heal it too. it is available at many spa clinics around the world.

Urine therapy – 15 per cent

After reading about bird poo and semen facials, this might seem less disgusting. Urine therapy involves drinking or applying one’s own piss on the face and neck. A repulsing thought but it is believed to have anti-ageing properties giving one glowing and wrinkle-free skin.

Solid gold facial – 14 per cent

Rather than a cringe this facial will perhaps bring a smile to your lips. In earlier days, Chinese women would rub a small roller made of gold on their faces which helped in the cell renewal process and stimulated collagen production. Keeping this in mind, the solid gold facial uses a mask made of 24 karat gold and a serum with gold flakes in it which hydrates and smoothes the skin instantly.
