The Science
What is Cryoskin?
Cryoskin is a state-of-the-art device from Italy, which uses heat and cold to reduce fat and tone/tighten the skin.
This technique is applied using a massage technique, which is painless and non-invasive—no suction or surgery.
HOW DOES CRYOSKIN TECHNOLOGY WORK?
Cryoskin works by triggering apoptosis: a natural process of programmed cell death. This process is triggered by the cold temperature of the Cryoskin wand to decrease fat, as well as reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve the quality of your skin.
What is apoptosis?
Natural Process
Apoptosis is the natural process of programmed cell death.
Our bodies naturally do it, allowing them to balance out old and new cells and remove any unwanted cells.
CryoSlimming
CryoSlimming treatments go through a 3-step sequence (warm, cold, warm).
During this sequence, the technician is working in a temperature range of 24.8 degrees to 39.2 degrees F.
Exposed Fat Cells
Apoptosis happens when fat cells are exposed to controlled thermal reduction.
​
It is the cold temperatures that encourage the process of apoptosis to begin in fat cells.
Cold Temperatures
Once the temperature is reduced to cold, the fat cells can no longer sustain life.

Cryoskin Technology
This process works with Cryoskin technology when a trained Cryoskin technician applies a wand directly to the area of the body they would like to treat, after applying a gel to protect the skin.
Fat Freezing
Fat cells are more susceptible to cold temperatures than other cells.
​
Fat freezing activates apoptosis in the fat cells only, achieving the desired result without causing any damage to the skin or other cells.
How does 'fat freezing' work?
Cryoskin technology uses cold temperatures to penetrate deep into the skin and reduce fat cells through the process of apoptosis.
