EVA Mendes shocked fans by posing with seven needles in her neck as part of a beauty treatment.

The actress, 46, joked that she was being “tortured” as she got mono-threading – a procedure known for tightening the skin.

Eva showed off the needles inserted into her neck while at her friend’s spa.

The Hitch star – who shares two children with husband Ryan Gosling – raved about the non-invasive procedure in her Instagram post.

“This spa-home away from home is incredible! No office with bad fluorescent lighting,” Eva wrote.

“No sterile office vibe. This is my go to for all things beauty. A home where you can relax while being tortured by the best of the best. This is my happy place!”

The star added: “Here I am getting some Mono-Threads. Ayyyy Dios! I’ll update you with results if you care.”

Mono threading involves the insertion of soluble synthetic threads into the skin to lift and tighten an area.

The threads are thought to stimulate the production of collagen, making the skin appear more youthful.

While Eva was pleased with the treatment, some of her fans were a bit too squeamish for the daunting needles.

One exclaimed: “Hell nah girl! This looks so crazy. I hope you’re OK… I’m shook.”

“This is too scary for me,” another admitted, while a third simply asked: “What the f**k?”

Eva’s latest beauty endeavor comes after she shut down a troll who said she needs to “get out more” after she admitted to barely leaving the house.

Sharing a black and white throwback of her on the beach, she wrote: “Went for a run on the beach this morning. No I didn’t. This picture was taken at least 15 years ago. ⠀

“Haven’t seen a beach this year. Haven’t been on a run this year.”

One fan said in the comments: “You need to tell Ryan to get you out more.”

The actress quickly fired back: “No thank you, I’m good. Rather be home with my man than anywhere else in the world.”

The famous couple have been together since first meeting in 2011 while on the set of the film The Place Beyond The Pines in what they have kept a very private relationship.

The pair also share daughters Esmeralda Amada, six, and Amada Lee, four.

Earlier this year, the former model opened up and revealed why she steers clear of sharing photos of her family on social media.

She wrote on Instagram: “I have always had a clear boundary when it comes to my man and my kids. I’ll talk about them of course, with limits, but I won’t post pictures of our daily life.”
