Have you heard of cryotherapy before?
If so, you’ve likely heard about it within the context of sports athletes. Cryotherapy – which stands for “cold therapy” – is a type of therapy that exposes the body to extreme cold temperatures for a safe amount of time. The idea behind cryotherapy is that the cold temperatures can help revive the muscles, enhance the immune system, and even provide anti-aging benefits.

If you have more than one migraine each month, you may see significant relief with cryotherapy treatments. The cold temperatures help treat the pinched nerves and tight muscles that contribute to migraines, meaning you could enjoy more migraine-free time with regular cryotherapy sessions.
At Physician Skin Solutions, we use cryotherapy to help numb the patient’s skin during RF microneedling treatments. Because microneedling uses tiny needles to promote faster cellular turnover, some patients find it a little uncomfortable. Cryotherapy helps take away the discomfort, making the RF microneedling procedure a breeze.
We use cryotherapy treatments in a variety of facials, including our FrozenC facial (which combines cryotherapy with microdermabrasion for enhanced skin rejuvenation) and Baby Angel Glow (which uses cryotherapy, microdermabrasion, and LaseMD laser treatments to produce brighter, tighter skin).

Whether you have eczema or dermatitis, research has suggested that the freezing temperatures associated with cryotherapy can help treat symptoms associated with these skin diseases.
If you suffer from breakouts, regular facial cryotherapy treatments could help kill off the bacteria that causes acne breakouts. It’s a great treatment to help reduce acne as well as facial redness!
Finally, research suggests that cryotherapy treatments can do more than improve your physical health; it can improve your mental well-being as well. Cryotherapy can help alleviate mild symptoms associated with depression and anxiety, making it a good short-term treatment for those mild blues.
