Women in Vietnam are trying a fiery new skincare technique as they are having burning towels laid on their faces and bodies to 'burn away impurities'.

Footage filmed on August 30 in Hanoi, Vietnam, shows the fire skincare expert, a Mr. Lam, performing the procedure by laying burning towels on a woman's face and body.

Lam says that he is an expert on qigong and fire energy and uses fire to treat patients who come to his clinic. Alcohol soaked towels are laid on a patient's body and set alight, letting the fire burn for 30 seconds to a minute before it is extinguished.

He says that fire can burn bad cells in the human body, burn excess fat, and improve circulation. Equally using a fire on the head can cure eye and nerve related diseases, relieve headaches and so on.

This method is relatively new as a treatment, however this method requires careful handling and control of the fire. If left too long, it can cause burns to the patient as well as the practitioner if he or she is not careful.

The woman shown said she felt better after using this healing method, despite her body feeling hot during the treatment.
