Two former clients of a New Mexico spa that offered "vampire facials" have been diagnosed with HIV, state health officials said Monday.
quote:
According to the New Mexico Department of Health, both clients "received injection-related procedures" at the now-shuttered VIP Spa in Albuquerque between May and September of last year.
The Department of Health says the aesthetician running the business was using unsafe practices that could spread infections like HIV, and Hepatitis B and C. So far, more than 130 former clients have come forward to get tested.
quote:
Tests found that the clients recently were infected with the same strain of the virus, "increasing the likelihood that the two HIV infections may have resulted from a procedure at the VIP Spa," the news release said.
The spa, which shut down in September after a health inspection, offered "vampire facials," procedures in which plasma is extracted from a client's own blood, then injected into the patron's face, KRQE-TV reported.
The treatment gained popularity in 2013 when reality TV star Kim Kardashian posted about it on Instagram.

Ah so they just trusted this random spa to be safe with handling their needles.
