Soon enough, Jacob's celebrity friends flocked to the comment section to compliment his makeover. Supermodel Naomi Campbell posted a wide-eyed emoji writing, "Happy safe Healing can't wait to see the unveiling." 'Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills' star Lisa Rinna called her friend, "Fresh as a f***ing daisy." Personal assistant Nicolas Newbold branded his pal, "Benjamin Button." Drag queen Miss Fame said "I love" with fire emojis.
According to Hyperbaric Medical Solutions' website, the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy "is an all-natural, non-invasive treatment where a patient simply breathes 100% medical-grade oxygen at an increased atmospheric pressure. HBOT can increase the oxygen concentration in the body by up to 1,200% —this gives it the potential to lead to extraordinary health benefits." It is not known whether Jacobs used insurance to cover the cost of the therapy. Without medical coverage, the costs can range between $250 to $450 a session. However, with the kind of net worth that Jacobs has, the price might not be a big deal for him.
