CRYOSKIN

​

The Peltier Effect.

The Peltier Effect gives Cryoskin precise temperature control creating the perfect conditions to reduce fat without damaging the surrounding tissue. The body calls on the lymphatic system to send macrophages (large white blood cells) to come and ‘eat-up’ the fat debris after the cold temperature has destroyed the fat cell. Some slimming services can actually damage your skin. Cryoskin is completely non-invasive and uses science that works with your body’s natural systems. That’s why your CryoSlimming® sessions will be every 2 weeks, to ensure your body’s lymphatic system has time to recover leaving you to look and feel amazing.

 

Apoptosis.

Cold temperatures, when applied to fat cells, trigger apoptosis – also known as “programmed cell death” – a process which occurs naturally in the body all the time. With the application of sub-zero temperatures, CryoSlimming® is able to induce apoptosis to target fat cells and eliminate body fat. We use this science to achieve incredible results.

​

Is it safe?

The sessions are very safe and non-invasive. Many guests visit us during the lunch break or immediately before or after a workout. There is no down-time after the session. More details can be found about Cryoskin and their safety recommendations

 

How long does it take to see results?

Some results may be seen after each session, however best results will be seen over a period of several sessions depending on the individual and their goals. Results can last for years, but it is recommended to schedule 1-2 sessions every 6 months for maintenance.

 

What are common results?

Research has shown a 38% fat reduction in treated areas as compared to 22% loss with other solutions. These results were seen over the course of 10 weeks after treating 100+ individuals 5 times each.

Cryoskin Revolution FAQs

Is it safe?

The device is very safe. The cooling system is controlled by an electronic temperature sensor located in the processing head of the device and the temperature is controlled in real time by a curve and figures displayed in real time on the screen. In the event of a malfunction, the device alerts the operator by sounding a tone and displaying an error message. Please note that the Cryoskin revolution is a VERY different process than other Body Sculpting devices, as we do NOT use any suction or tissue damaging techniques. Our technicians are always in control of the device at all times.

 

​

What are the benefits?

The major benefit of the body shaping and body sculting sought is a decrease in fat mass. The Cryoskin revolution is not only capable of emitting cold, but also heat and causing the two to alternate, causing "thermal shock". In tightening the skin, this method of thermal shock is particularly restorative for tissues by a significant increase of local microcirculation and collagen.​

 

How often can I do a CryoSlimming™ or CryoToning™ Treatment?

The usual frequency is 1 treatment every 14 days (for slimming treatments). There is a physiological reason for this: when apoptosis occurs and fat cells die, waste is formed. This will be eliminated by natural routes (blood, lymphatic system, and then urine). Metabolism must, therefore, be allowed to evacuate this waste without overloading the circuits. We cannot perform slimming any sooner than 14 days from the prior treatment. In addition, slimming and toning cannot be performed on the same day as it will overload the lymphatic system.

​

Toning treatments can be performed once every week and alternated with the slimming or toning treatments.

 

How often can I do a CryoFacial Treatment?

For clients under 45 years of age: 1x per week for first 5 sessions, then maintain as needed

For clients over 45 years of age: 1x per 3-4 days for first 5 sessions, then maintain as needed

 

Can I work out before or after?

Yes! We recommend exercising AFTER the body shaping or body sculpting treatment, simply due to the fact that exercise heats the body up, and can hinder the amount of time at freeze temperatures, which would reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.

 

What do I need to bring?

A full water bottle. Also, if you are having a facial treatment, please do NOT wear or use ANY makeup OR moisturizer.  Prepare the day of by taking in the best possible diet and lifestyle to accompany the treatments (drink plenty of water in particular). Remember that a healthy lifestyle is part of the treatment plan, and eating unhealthy foods will cause your body to create new fat cells and cellulite deposits.

 

Please pay attention to the followinf important information and anything relayed to you by your technician in preparation for your CRYOSLIMMING™ appointment for maximum results.

• Please DO NOT EAT or DRINK any sugar, foods that contain sugar or carbohydrates that convert into sugar (i.e. fruit, juices, dairy, white bread, white rice, pasta, etc.) 2-4 hours prior to or AFTER your appointment time.

• Stretch marks may temporaily appear raised or more red

• Increased urination and/or slightly darker urine

 

​​

Do I lose weight with this treatment?

It is very common that there is a loss of weight during the treatment. This is due both to the loss of fat mass but also to the drainage techniques (exercise, etc) and the diet and lifestyle required. We encourage you to eat healthy as well as maintain a daily exercise routine.​

 

Can I do anything that enhances the treatment?

By implementing and maintaining a healthy lifestyle and a good diet. We also recommend using all  natural plant based Cellulite Gel (available at our studio) as well as the full program of facial care products (also  available at our studio). ​
