Various news networks recently reported that a Japanese skin care salon has announced a new facial treatment using live snails crawling about your face.  They claim the secreted mucous has skin health benefits.  By the way, the repost says the snails were raised organically and fed only healthy organic material.  The assistant redirects any snail that comes too close to your nose, mouth or eyes.

Our Skin Care specialists are specially trained, licensed professionals using professional grade products, and common techniques.  They do not provide live snail facials.
