While it\u2019s normal to experience skin issues, they don\u2019t have to be tolerated. There are many treatments available to help with problematic skin, but one takes precedent over the others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cryotherapy facials are unlike any other skincare procedure out there. If you\u2019ve been searching for a new treatment for your clients, this could be the answer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Take a look at the information below to learn more!<\/span><\/p>\n

What Is a Cryotherapy Facial?<\/b><\/h2>\n

A cryotherapy facial consists of using <\/span>liquid nitrogen<\/span><\/a>(dry ice) on the face to give the skin a glowy, youthful appearance. It tightens pores, reduces fine lines, and clears age spots.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cryotherapy treatment can also help to manage other skin conditions. The cold temperatures reduce sebum, which then clears acne.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cryotherapy Facial Benefits<\/b><\/h2>\n

There\u2019s a good reason why people are agreeing to put ice cold nitrogen on their faces. The cryotherapy facial results that come from it are phenomenal. Often referred to as \u201cfrotox\u201d, this chilling mask works wonders. Here are some of its benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Increases Collagen Production<\/b><\/h5>\n

Collagen is vital<\/span><\/a> for keeping skin looking youthful. It\u2019s a protein that helps to connect the ligaments to bones, strengthen blood vessels, and make the skin firm.<\/span><\/p>\n

As people age, their body stops producing as much collagen, which leads to wrinkles. Not to mention, the pollution and toxins in the air further damage the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n

All of these factors create bags under the eyes, deepens wrinkles, and enhances the signs of aging.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Enhances Blood Circulation<\/b><\/h5>\n

During a cryotherapy facial, the liquid nitrogen vapors are distributed over the face, neck, and scalp. The freezing cold temperatures make the blood vessels contract and dilate, which increases blood flow.<\/span><\/p>\n

Through this process, toxins are flushed away while nutrients and enzymes are brought to the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Minimizes Dark Circles and Inflammation<\/b><\/h5>\n

A cryotherapy facial treatment helps to give the skin around the eyes an extra boost of nutrients. When the liquid nitrogen is applied to the face, the skin instantly becomes tighter and blood flows quicker.<\/span><\/p>\n

Improved blood circulation helps to even the skin tone and reduces puffiness around the eyes. <\/span><\/p>\n

4. Reduces Pore Size<\/b><\/h5>\n

Large pores are magnets for oil, dirt, and other toxins. If the skin has blackheads, it\u2019s likely due to pores. Unfortunately, blackheads are hard to get rid of. One of the benefits of a cryotherapy facial is that the cold nitrogen helps to shrink and tighten the pores.<\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, it\u2019s more difficult for the skin to get polluted by toxins. Furthermore, using a cryotherapy facial machine exfoliates the skin and stimulates new skin cells.<\/span><\/p>\n

What to Ask Clients to Do Before a Cryotherapy Facial<\/b><\/h2>\n

There isn\u2019t too much that a client needs to do before treatment. However, your spa should suggest a few things prior to coming in.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the biggest things they should do is drink lots of water. Doing so helps to keep the skin hydrated, providing better results. Also, if they get Botox, it\u2019s best that they wait at least two weeks after injections before getting cryotherapy facials.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Clients shouldn\u2019t overly exfoliate the skin before treatment either. Otherwise the facial could agitate their face.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, don\u2019t wear makeup. There\u2019s no harm in it, but it just helps the appointment go smoother and reduces an extra step for the spa technician.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Clients Can Expect During a Cryotherapy Facial Treatment<\/b><\/h2>\n

If cryotherapy facials are <\/span>new to your spa<\/span><\/a>, then you might not know what steps to take. Every spa chooses to operate differently, but here are the basics of what to anticipate:<\/span><\/p>\n
