The vampire facial will stimulate collagen growth and make your face look more youthful.
5. Cupping
The treatment is a form of acupuncture that includes placing heated glass cups on your skin to alleviate stress and increase circulation.
“The heat in the cups draws up the underlying tissues as it is left in place for a few minutes, so blood stasis can form,“ says the Center for Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Cupping will help your tissues to release toxins, increases activity in the lymphatic system, clears stretch marks, and improves varicose veins.
