Understanding Cryofacial

A cryofacial is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses controlled cold therapy (cryotherapy) to stimulate circulation, reduce puffiness, and improve skin texture. It’s a popular option for individuals seeking a natural glow, tighter skin, and a youthful appearance—without downtime or invasive procedures.

 

What is Cryofacial?

Cryofacial treatments involve applying a stream of cold air or cryogenically cooled gases (such as liquid nitrogen vapour) to the face. This process causes the blood vessels to constrict and then dilate, boosting blood flow, stimulating collagen production, and tightening the skin. It can leave the skin looking instantly brighter, smoother, and refreshed.

 

What to Expect from Cryofacial

During your cryofacial session, you can expect:

A consultation to discuss your skin concerns

The use of a handheld device delivering cold air across the face

A relaxing, cooling experience lasting 15–30 minutes

Immediate reduction in redness, puffiness, and inflammation

Possible improvement in acne, fine lines, and pore size

Many people report a refreshed appearance immediately after the session with no downtime required.

Types of Cryofacial (If Applicable)

Cryofacials can vary depending on the equipment and technique used:

CO2 Cryotherapy Facial – uses carbon dioxide to cool the skin

Liquid Nitrogen Cryofacial – uses nitrogen vapour for deeper stimulation

Electric-Cooling Devices – use machines to safely control temperature

Combined Cryo-Facial with LED Therapy or Masks – for enhanced skin benefits

Your provider will advise which version best suits your skin needs.

 

Risks Associated with Cryofacial

Cryofacials are generally safe when performed by qualified professionals, but some risks include:

Temporary redness or tingling

Sensitivity to cold temperatures

Skin irritation or dryness (rare)

Not suitable for people with cold allergies (e.g., cold urticaria) or Raynaud’s disease

A pre-treatment consultation helps assess whether the therapy is appropriate for you.
