Kim Kardashian shows off her needle studded face in new Instagram snap

Re: Kim Kardashian shows off her needle studded face in new Instagram snap

She showed off the results of a scary blood facial last week, but now Kim Kardashian has moved on to needles with a session of acupuncture.

The pregnant reality star put this very close up snap of her face on Instagram with the caption "Oh, so relaxing!" Errrm okay then.

Traditionally used in Chinese practice, acupuncture is designed to stimulate specific points in the face and body to correct imbalances in the flow of qi through channels known as meridians. Lots of people use these tiny needles for back and joint pain, while others use them for banishing nausea and stress.

Perhaps Kimmie is having a problem with morning sickness?

Now she's five months pregnant, Kim is obviously turning to alternative medicine to treat her symptoms.

Other experts suggest acupuncture is a good alternative for women who don't want a surgical face lift. The theory suggests that needles can stimulate collagen and elastin production making the skin look younger and firmer.

We don't think Kim K needs to worry about facelifts and wrinkles just yet! She's only 32...

Ouch! She's a little obsessed with staying youthful in a desperate dangerous way. She creeped me out when she did the blood facial.
