Three women got HIV after a "vampire facial" at a New Mexico spa in 2018, says Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The spa was not licensed and had unsafe practices. The facial injects platelet-rich plasma into the face to make skin look better. It's important to handle blood safely to avoid infections. Owner Maria de Lourdes Ramos De Ruiz got prison time for doing medicine without a license. Health experts say be careful and research before doing cosmetic treatments. There's also a warning about fake Botox causing illness.
