There is no magic pill, and we can’t stop ageing – at least not yet, but there are a lot of things to help us look better and younger. Some go for fast results with invasive methods (like injections); some trust more into the non-invasive, natural way. Read about cryotherapy facials, which are trending among the beauty crowd. 

What is cryotherapy facial?

A cryo facial is a treatment performed with a local cryotherapy device that directs a flow of vaporized liquid nitrogen on the forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. While in a cryosauna your head stays outside, and the cold affects only the body below the neck, a cryo facial session targets the face, helping look younger and healthier.

Cryotherapy facial is a natural way to look younger

What does a cryo facial session look like?

Cryotherapy facial treatment lasts 8 to 10 minutes. During this time, the cold air stream is applied to the scalp, face, and neck/décolleté areas. It will feel cool, like when sticking your face in a freezer. The treatment is totally painless; many of the customers find it pleasant, especially in the summer heat. An immediate feeling of freshness in the process of comprehensive healing is complemented by firmer, tighter skin, reduced visible wrinkles, and overall rejuvenation. 

Some things you should remember before the session:

• your face should be clean and dry;
• you should remove any jewellery, like necklaces or earrings.

Benefits of cryo facials

The benefits of cryo facial sessions are similar to ice packs compressions, but the former are more intensive and thereby more effective. Main benefits include:

• due to the intense cold, your blood vessels contract and your pores tighten; 
• the flow of oxygenated blood to the face increases, which makes the skin glowy and more vibrant;
• visible wrinkles reduce.

Cryo facials are a form of training for blood vessels, which significantly increases the resistance of sensitive skin and reduces redness. Also, cryotherapy facial could have positive effects on different skin conditions, like acne, psoriasis, atopic eczema, and others. 

Localized cold treatments help to reduce symptoms of migraine, as well.

Who needs cryotherapy facial treatments?

The natural rejuvenating effect of vaporized liquid nitrogen facial treatment is one of the topmost hits in the whole beauty industry. Usually, cryo facials target the face and the scalp; in anti-age treatments, also the neck and décolletage. So they are potentially suited for everybody who wants to look better.

Cryotherapy facials are a non-invasive cosmetic treatment, and, unlike certain peels or other aggressive face cleanings, they won’t leave skin looking red or raw. The session will not take a lot of time, and its effect is immediate. 

That is why cryotherapy is so popular among celebrities.

Who uses cryotherapy facials?

Cryo facials have recently become a new “red carpet” trend among celebrities. Demi Moore, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba, Mandy Moore, Demi Lovato, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Aniston, and many others undertake a short treatment before each major event. A single treatment helps to smooth out mimic wrinkles and makes the skin look fresh and shining.

Celebrities like Daniel Craig, Mark Wahlberg, Will Smith, Shaquille O‘Neal, Lebron James, Justin Bieber, and Hugh Jackman use both local and whole-body cryotherapy as an integral part of their healthy lifestyle, to recover after intense workouts or stressful daily activities, to get in shape before working on a movie, music video, or taking part in a competition.

Nowadays, almost all cryotherapy centres provide cryo facials, therefore, anyone can try it. Find a cryotherapy facial provider near you on our map.
