Forget Botox.

Snail slime is the hottest new thing celebrities are injecting into their face.

Itโ€™s no joke.

Itโ€™s a trademarked procedure called the โ€œEscarGlowโ€ facial. It promises to reverse sun damage, brighten skin and reduce signs of aging.

โ€œWhat we do first is mix the snail slime with a hyaluronic acid,โ€ said Dr. Matthew Schulman, a plastic surgeon. โ€œWe put that on the face and we will microneedle on that.โ€

And itโ€™s not a painless procedure.

โ€œItโ€™s a really easy procedure,โ€ said medical aesthetician Amanda Sanzone.  Patients โ€œwill feel a little bit of pain but with the numbing cream weโ€™ve applied first itโ€™s very bearable.โ€

Expect your face to look red immediately after treatment.  That typically goes away by the next day, and three to six treatments are recommended.
