Lift / Tone / Firm

The machine is manufactured by a company which makes over 40 different medical devices and has been doing so for the last 70 years very successfully. It uses precisely controlled temperature of the Wand or Static Heads (how the cold/heat is applied to the body). This method is used to destroy fat cells by freezing within the temperature range of +5 to -5 ˚C. The cold treatment causes apoptosis or cell death of subcutaneous fat tissues.

This also causes a very strong increase in the local metabolism and an acceleration of the microcirculation which are both responsible for the production of collagen. The collagen thus brings elasticity and toning to the skin and makes it possible to visibly and durably combat skin aging.

The sessions are very safe and non-invasive. Many clients visit us during the lunch break or immediately before a workout. There is no down-time after the session. 

In what cases should CryoSlimming or Toning NOT be done?

• Severe Raynaud’s syndrome
• People who suffer from very poor circulation
• Pregnant woman
• Severe diabetes
• Cancer
• Liver disease
• Kidney disease

What are the side effects?

There are few. Sometimes localized redness that disappears after a few hours. Occasionally some local pain that rarely exceeds 2 to 3 hours. There may also be some itching due to the reactions of certain cosmetic products. That being said, it is advised that you don't use lotions or other cosmetic products before coming to do the treatment.

Results may be noticed immediately, but typically results will set in over the days following session. It is recommended to address specific areas between 3 - 6 times for best results. Afterwards, the treatments can last for years, but it is recommended to schedule 1-2 treatments every 6 months while maintaining a healthy diet and exercise.

How Long Do the Results Last?

The success of a session varies from person to person.  Those clients who are already living a healthy lifestyle, have reported to have better results at keeping the fat off. However, the remaining fat cells can still grow IF you are not working to keep from gaining weight. 

Research has shown a 44% fat reduction in treated areas. These results were seen over the course of 10 weeks after treating 100 individuals between 3-6 times each.

The most common alternative to Cryoskin has an average of 22-24% fat loss in an area treated and the areas are significantly smaller by comparison.

It is recommended to address specific areas between 3 - 6 times for best results. Afterwards, the sessions can last for years, but it is recommended to schedule 1-2 every 6 months while maintaining healthy eating habits and exercise.

Clients electing to do CryoSlimming can do 1 session every 14 days. This allows for the dead fat cells to cycle through the lymphatic system. Clients electing to do CryoToning can do treatments everyday, but we typically recommend once per week. 

How does it feel?

The feeling is a bit like an ice cube sitting  or sliding across the skin. Some clients have fallen asleep during a session and we've never had anyone say it was more than minimally uncomfortable.

A survey of the machine's manufacturer found that:

• 53% found the treatment comfortable
• 35% found the treatment relaxing
• 12% found the treatment bearable
