Rather than just relying on expensive make-up and good lighting, A-list celebrities are trying out extreme procedures in their search for unblemished, wrinkle-free skin.
為了追求白皙光滑的肌膚，一線明星不再只是依靠于昂貴的化妝品和照明設備，他們還嘗試了許多極端的方法。

In order to maintain his youthful glow, One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles reportedly goes books in for ￡325 sheep placenta facials at Dr Harold Lancer’s Beverly Hills clinic in LA.
據報道，One Direction組合中的萬人迷哈里?斯泰爾斯（Harry Styles）為了保持年輕紅潤的肌膚，經常造訪位于洛杉磯比弗利山莊的哈羅德?蘭瑟（Harold Lancer）醫生的診所，用羊胎素保養面部。每次花費325英鎊。

Hollywood dermatologist and 'aesthetician’ Louise Deschamps told Grazia the 21-year-old pop star comes to see her for the 90-minute treatment every six weeks.
在好萊塢工作的皮膚科醫生兼理療師路易絲?德尚（Louise Deschamps）在接受《紅秀》（Grazia）雜志采訪時表示，這位21歲的流行歌手每隔6個禮拜就會來這里做一次90分鐘的面部護理。

She told the magazine: ‘He gets all clogged up - putting on make-up all the time and travelling a lot plays havoc with his skin.
她在《紅秀》的采訪中說道：“他的毛孔全都堵塞了。全天候帶妝加上頻繁出行對他的皮膚造成了很大的傷害?！?/p>

'He takes care of himself and loves the facials, he likes to look good and have good skin.’
“他很注重保養，喜歡做面部護理。他喜歡自己看起來氣色很好，膚質很棒?！?/p>

The unusual treatment involves taking the placenta from prime New Zealand livestock - the stem cells, which are full of rich nutrients that fight free-radical skin damage, are extracted and then flash frozen.
除此之外還有一些不太常見的護膚方法，如注射一些源于新西蘭的上等牲畜胎盤素。人們從牲畜的胎盤素中提取出干細胞，并迅速將這些干細胞冷藏起來。這些干細胞含有豐富的營養物質，能抵抗自由基（free-radical）對皮膚的傷害。

They are then mixed into a gel containing gold flecks which are slathered over the face after it has been exfoliated, exposed to steam and had pores opened by LED light from a handheld device.
接下來，人們會把這些干細胞摻入含有黃金微粒的凝膠中。在手持LED燈的照射下，凝膠開始脫落，然后涂抹在經過蒸汽熏蒸、毛孔張開的面部上。

While it may sound like an intense treatment, the curly-haired star isn't the first to try out an experimental facial.
雖然這聽起來像是一種過激的護膚方法，但是一頭卷發的哈里并不是第一個嘗試這種實驗性方法的人。

Blood is draw out of the arm using a needle before being spun in a machine to remove the platelets.
