CryoSculpt
Our "Fire & Ice" Process
Combining infrared (IR) or red light therapy (RLT) with cryotherapy (cryolipolysis) with our SubZero Cryo Machine creates a powerful "Fire & Ice" contrast therapy.
First, we use our far infrared sauna blanket to warm deep tissue, improve circulation, and prime mitochondria to generate ATP, making the subsequent cold shock more tolerable and effective for a more highly effective body-contouring combination. Red light therapy stimulates cellular metabolism, which helps your lymphatic system flush out the fat cells destroyed by cryotherapy while also boosting collagen production for firmer skin.
Immediately after your red light treatment, we begin cryotherapy with our SubZero Cryo Machine by apply targeted CO₂ gas at -110°F under high pressure to rapidly lower the skin's temperature to 39.6°F. Within just 30 seconds—a reaction known as "thermal shock" sets in. By exposing fat cells to these precise sub-zero temperatures, the cells crystallize and die (apoptosis), and are subsequently metabolized and PERMANENTLY removed by the body's natural lymphatic system gradually over a few weeks to a few months.
Does Cryosculpting Work?
YES! "In clinical studies, cryolipolysis was shown to reduce subcutaneous fat at the treatment site by up to 25% after one treatment. Improvements were seen in 86% of treated subjects. At 73%, the patient satisfaction rate is higher than with other technologies used for noninvasive lipolysis. Cryolipolysis has been proven to be a very safe method for body contouring, and is accomplished with only minimal discomfort." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4079633/

Be prepared to urinate frequently. This is part of the elimination process.
- Cold Sensitivities & Vascular Disorders: Conditions like Raynaud's, cold urticaria, cryoglobulinemia, or peripheral arterial disease. Extreme cold can cause dangerous vasoconstriction or unwanted tissue necrosis in these individuals.
- Active Skin Conditions: Unhealed open wounds, sores, rashes, or bacterial/viral skin infections at the targeted treatment site.
- Uncontrolled Medical Issues: Severe, unmanaged hypertension (blood pressure over 160/100 mm Hg), unstable angina, or uncontrolled heart conditions.
- Blood Clotting & Bleeding Issues: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or severe bleeding disorders.
For some conditions, the treatment might be an option but requires a doctor's clearance and professional monitoring:
- Pregnancy: Generally advised against whole-body or localized cryotherapy due to lack of safety data.
- Neurological Conditions: Individuals with nerve damage, neuropathy, or complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).
- Diabetes: Needs careful management as underlying neuropathy or vascular complications can hide skin damage or lead to poor healing.
Always consult with a healthcare provider or your specialized dermatologist before undergoing targeted cryotherapy to ensure it is a safe option for your specific medical history.
