Rejuvenate your skin by letting little fishes nibble your legs to get rid of dead skin?
Fish Spa Gone Wrong [In The News]
Dermatologist Patricia Yuen says:
1. No proven medical benefit from fish spa. Fish might bite off skin cells, but it is not a medical treatment. If water is not treated for hygiene, it could be a breeding ground for fungi.
2. Possible to get fungal and bacterial skin infection from submersion in the fish tank.
3. Symptoms of fungal and bacterial infection and redness of the skin, blotchiness and itchiness. With scratching and after-treatment, a brown pigmentation may appear. Brown patches will disappear eventually anytime from a few weeks to a few months.
So, say TAK NAK! to public fish spa..
