Housewife Kyle Richards Gets Super Scary Facial

Kyle Richards shocked her Twitter followers when she posted a photo of herself with her face covered in cotton and wearing a mask with electrical cables attached!
But The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was not getting a serious medical procedure. And she wasn’t auditioning for the role of Jason Voorhees in an upcoming installment of the Friday the 13th movies.
The 42-year-old mother-of-four was getting a FACIAL!
Richards was at the Carina Skincare Studio in Los Angeles when she tweeted on Saturday.
Never one to take herself seriously she wrote: “Thinking to ask @Carinasfacial to borrow that ‘mask’ for Halloween :)”
Richards was actually having a 70-minute procedure done, which involves using a microcurrent to rejuvenate the skin. According to Carinaskincare.com: “The only way we can truly penetrate the skin and affect its lower layers is to draw vitamin-rich solutions into the dermal tissue by means of electricity.”
Not all of Richards’ followers were convinced though. One person tweeted: “Whatever happened to just moisturizing and growing old?”
To which Richards replied: “Wasn’t cutting it.”
She is not the only Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star taking steps to beautify her skin. Fellow cast member Taylor Armstrong was spotted in Beverly Hills on Tuesday at celebrity skin and laser clinic LaserAway.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, in addition to laser hair removal, Armstrong got a treatment called a “Photofacial” to give her a more youthful appearance.
