Is dipping you face in ice water good for you?

Question

According to Times Now News, dipping your face in ice water is good for you. It instantly targets redness and spots and has many other benefits.

Answer 1

This article from TimesNowNews explains how face icing is good for your skin and has many benefits. The author's main source of evidence is beauty experts who explain why face icing benefits your skin and how it works. I went and did my own research and found this study conducted by PubMed, a much more reliable source than TimeNowNews. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25654195/, this study found that the people treated for forehead wrinkles using "focused cold therapy" showed satisfaction and improvement with their wrinkles. Another article I found by the Cleveland Clinic further supports the original claim. https://health.clevelandclinic.org/facial-icing. It is essentially the same article but done through a more trusted news source. These articles both align with the main claim proving that the TimesNowNews is indeed correct.

This is a remarkable fact check! TimesNowNews, as you stated, is not a super reliable source, and they used beauty experts to back the claim—good use of backing the claim with multiple reputable sources and cross-referencing one another. Your answer also gives a clear, definite, true or false answer.
