CRYOfacial in Boise and Eagle

What is it and how does it work?

​​Cryo facialA CRYOfacial is a non-invasive technique that uses gentle bursts of pressurized, hyper-cooled air (-240F) to rapidly lower the surface temperature of your scalp and your skin on both the face and the neck. The cold temperature instantly causes your skin to tighten, which helps fill in wrinkles and fine lines. It only takes a matter of minutes to complete the process, and results are quickly visible. If you have inflammation in your face or a slight discoloration due to minor damage, this therapy can reduce both since it promotes better circulation. The facial is not painful, and many people say that it is relaxing. The result is a more even toned, youthful appearance without the use of injections and expensive facial creams. There is no downtime after the procedure.

How Does It Work?

With this special technique, the skin is cooled to a temperature below freezing very quickly. In addition to reducing wrinkles, this technique helps flush toxins from the skin and reduces impurities. A special probe is used to deliver the vapors that cause skin tightening. This tightening is called vasoconstriction, which helps dilate capillaries and blood vessels.  The combination of fast freezing and vasoconstriction also lends to collagen production. One of the biggest contributing factors to wrinkles and fine lines is reduced collagen production. Although this is natural as people age, collagen can be regenerated to create a more youthful appearance on the skin’s surface. Also, CRYOfacials helps close your pores to give your skin a natural and healthy glow.

At Active Health & Wellness, we offer this unique CRYOfacial as well as a variety of other cryogenic treatments. It is important to know that applying an ice pack or trying to cool your skin quickly at home can be dangerous. This special method uses a special technology to accomplish these amazing benefits.
