Cryo Therapy

The Cryo Face Boost is a cold stimulation therapy in which our skin therapist applies controlled cold of around -5 to -10 degrees Celsius to the face via a specialised cryo spray or handpiece. The extreme cold causes an immediate narrowing of blood vessels (vasoconstriction), followed by a powerful circulation boost (vasodilation) as the skin warms up. This alternating effect stimulates lymphatic drainage, collagen production and skin firming. The treatment lasts 20 minutes and has no downtime.

The Cryo Face Boost is particularly effective for puffiness or swollen-looking skin, red or sensitive skin (rosacea, couperose), enlarged pores, tired skin, loss of firmness and sallowness. The treatment also works excellently as an add-on after a peel, microneedling or laser to quickly reduce redness. Our skin therapist adapts the protocol to your specific skin condition.

For a one-off refresh or the day before a special occasion, 1 session is sufficient. For lasting results such as firmer skin and persistently smaller pores, our skin therapist recommends a course of 5 to 6 sessions, with 1 to 2 weeks between them. The cost-effective package of 5 sessions (with 1 free) is the most economical choice for a course. Maintenance: 1 session per month.

The Cryo Face Boost is not painful but the sensation is intense. Immediately upon application of the cold you feel a sharp cold and tingling sensation, similar to an ice cube on the skin. This lasts only a few seconds per zone. As the skin warms up you feel a pleasant warm and invigorating sensation. Many clients describe the treatment as refreshing and energising. Our skin therapist keeps the handpiece moving continuously to prevent freezing.

The Cryo Face Boost has virtually no downtime. Directly after treatment the skin is temporarily redder and tighter, a sign of the circulation boost. This subsides within 15 to 30 minutes. Afterwards the skin looks more even and radiant. Ice burns from excessive exposure do not occur with professional use. Our skin therapist always carefully monitors treatment time per zone.

You see a direct effect immediately after the session: the skin looks tighter, pores appear smaller and the complexion is more even. This immediate effect is perfect for the day before a photoshoot, wedding or event. Long-term results, such as improved skin firmness and persistently smaller pores, become noticeable after a course of 4 to 6 sessions.

The Cryo Face Boost is particularly popular in summer because the cooling effect is pleasant and the treatment does not make the skin more UV-sensitive. As a refresher after a warm day or as a complement to a summer skincare routine, cryo therapy is excellent. Our skin therapist always recommends daily SPF as a basic step.

Yes, the Cryo Face Boost works particularly well as an add-on after a treatment that causes temporary redness, such as a chemical peel, Aqua Peel or microneedling. The cold soothes the skin and speeds recovery. Combined with LED light therapy you further enhance collagen building. Our skin therapist will gladly discuss which combination best fits your goal.

The Cryo Face Boost is generally considered safe for the face during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as no chemicals or electricity are involved. Our skin therapist adjusts the intensity if needed. Always discuss it with your midwife or GP before booking an appointment so they are aware of your treatment programme.

A single Cryo Facial session of 20 minutes costs 75 euros. The most cost-effective package is 5 sessions for 375 euros, including 1 free session. That is a saving of 75 euros compared to individual sessions. Want to combine the treatment with another facial or as an add-on after a peel? Our skin therapist will gladly put together a tailored treatment plan.
