Cold, but make it therapeutic.

At EVOLV Plastic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics in Toledo, cryotherapy uses controlled cold temperatures to provide a cooling, soothing treatment for the face and body.

Cryotherapy can be used on its own or incorporated into select aesthetic treatments to help calm the skin and provide temporary relief from discomfort, redness, or swelling. Your provider may recommend it before or after treatments like injectables, lasers, tattoo removal, or microneedling based on your individual treatment plan.

It’s quick, refreshing, and an easy way to give treated skin a little extra support when it needs it most.

Think targeted cold, a calming reset, and a refresh your skin can actually feel.

THE PROCEDURE

What It Is

Different skin. Different goals. Different ways to cool things down.

At EVOLV, we offer three cryotherapy technologies: Frozen-C, CooLifting, and Cryoglobes. Having multiple options allows our team to customize how cryotherapy is incorporated into your treatment based on your skin, concerns, and what you’re having done.

Depending on the technology and treatment plan, cryotherapy may help temporarily calm redness and swelling, soothe the skin, support circulation, and leave your complexion looking refreshed and more even.

It can be used as a standalone skin refresh or paired with select aesthetic treatments when your provider feels a little extra cooling support makes sense.

Three different technologies. One very cool approach to skin.

How It Works

Sometimes your skin just needs to cool down.

Cryotherapy uses controlled, localized cold temperatures to quickly cool targeted areas of the face or body. This cooling effect can help temporarily reduce redness, swelling, and discomfort while supporting circulation in the treated area.

Because the cold is applied directly where it’s needed, your EVOLV provider can customize the treatment based on your skin, the area being treated, and whether cryotherapy is being used on its own or alongside another aesthetic service.

The experience is quick, cooling, and surprisingly refreshing.

A little cold can feel really good.

What It Treats

  • Sometimes cooling things down is exactly what your skin needs.

    Depending on the technology used and your treatment plan, cryotherapy may help with:

    • Temporary redness and visible irritation
    • Swelling and bruising
    • Post-treatment discomfort
    • The appearance of enlarged pores
    • Dull or tired-looking skin
    • Overall tone and texture
    • Calming breakout-prone skin
    • Cooling and soothing the skin around select injectable, laser, and aesthetic treatments

    Cryotherapy can be used as a quick standalone refresh or incorporated into a larger treatment plan when your skin could use a little extra calming support.

    Cool. Calm. Refreshed.

Benefits

Calm Things Down
Controlled cooling can help temporarily reduce visible redness, swelling, and irritation, making cryotherapy a refreshing option when skin needs a little extra calming support.

A Quick Skin Refresh
Cryotherapy can leave skin looking refreshed and more awake, making it an easy standalone treatment or finishing touch to select skincare services.

Recovery’s Cool Sidekick
After certain aesthetic treatments, your provider may incorporate cryotherapy to help soothe the treated area and temporarily reduce redness, swelling, bruising, or discomfort.

Quick + Easy
Depending on the technology and area being treated, cryotherapy sessions can take just a few minutes, making them easy to add to an appointment or treatment plan.

Comfort When You Need It
Localized cold temporarily reduces sensation in the treated area, which can help make select treatments like injectables, lasers, microneedling, and tattoo removal more comfortable.

Sometimes the best thing you can do for your skin is simply cool things down.

OVERVIEW

Treatment Time

30 minutes

Most cryotherapy appointments at EVOLV take around 30 minutes, depending on the technology used, treatment area, and whether cryotherapy is being used on its own or alongside another service.

Quick, refreshing, and easy to fit into your day.

Recovery Time

Cool down, then get on with your day.

Cryotherapy typically requires little to no downtime, so most patients can return to their normal routine right after treatment.

Depending on how cryotherapy is used, your skin may look and feel refreshed, calm, and temporarily cooled immediately afterward.

No lengthy recovery. Just a quick refresh and you’re on your way.

Your Safety Matters.

At EVOLV Plastic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics, we believe that a highly educated and experienced physician or provider is paramount in providing safe and consistent treatments to our patients.

That is why we promote ongoing education and are committed to completing in-depth training on each treatment and injectable product to ensure safe and effective application and outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cryotherapy safe?

Yes, Frozen C and other cryotherapy treatments are FDA Cleared and clinically proven to be safe when performed by trained providers. The advanced cryotherapy technology we utilize at EVOLV is designed to be gentle on skin while still creating positive changes that patients can see and feel.

How many treatments are needed?

This will depend on your skin as well as your desired cosmetic goals. Whether you are using cryotherapy as a standalone treatment, or you are requesting it as an add-on with our other EVOLV facials, cryotherapy yields the best results when performed in a series of three or more.

How long do treatments take?

This depends on what device is being used as well as if the treatment is being done in conjunction with one of our other services. Most of our EVOLV skincare treatments take 30-45 minutes.

How can Cryotherapy be used for pain management?

At EVOLV, we utilize the Frozen C device to improve comfort during injections and other minor cosmetic procedures. It can be performed before and after treatment to also calm the skin, reduce inflammation and redness, minimize bruising, and shorten downtime.

What treatments can be combined with Frozen C?

FROZEN C pairs seamlessly with treatments like microneedling, ablative therapies, hair restoration, injections and fillers, tattoo removal, Thermage, and various surgical procedures, enhancing their results and promoting faster recovery.

How does Cryotherapy work to improve skin tone and texture?

Cryotherapy enhances skin tone and texture by exposing the skin to freezing temperatures, triggering beneficial effects. The intense cold stimulates collagen production, reducing wrinkles and improving elasticity for a firmer, youthful look. It also minimizes inflammation, helping to reduce redness and puffiness, while temporarily tightening pores for a smoother complexion. Additionally, the initial constriction of blood vessels due to the cold is followed by increased blood flow, promoting overall skin rejuvenation.

Can Cryotherapy help with reducing inflammation after exercise?

Cryotherapy is an effective method for reducing post-exercise inflammation and aiding recovery. It helps alleviate muscle soreness and pain by decreasing the production of pro-inflammatory substances and promoting anti-inflammatory responses. Additionally, cryotherapy can accelerate healing and boost overall energy, making it a popular choice for athletes and fitness enthusiasts looking to optimize their performance and feel rejuvenated.

Is cryotherapy safe to use on all skin types?

When performed properly by a qualified practitioner, cryotherapy is generally safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin. It can even help soothe inflammation and redness commonly associated with sensitive skin. Cryotherapy’s cooling effect reduces inflammation, making it a potentially calming option for those with sensitive skin concerns.

How soon can I see results after a Cryotherapy session?

You may notice some immediate benefits after a single cryotherapy session, such as reduced inflammation, increased energy, improved flexibility, and a subtle boost in metabolism. However, multiple sessions are often recommended to achieve optimal improvements.

What our patients are saying

My experience with all the staff at EVOLV, including Dr. Barone, the coordinator Sandy, nurses Angie and Kayle, and Amy, has been amazing, whether I’m in person or over the phone speaking to the receptionists. I’m only 5 days post-op, and I’m very satisfied with my results so far.

I had two deep scars on my face following an injury. I started seeing Amanda for Microneedling treatments shortly after. I felt comfortable with our evidence-based treatment plan, and I learned a lot from her throughout the process. I cannot thank Amanda enough for helping me through such a difficult time. Thanks to her, I can now feel confident on my wedding day!

Everyone is so nice. I saw Amanda, and she really helped me. She suggested some face creams I should use, and what a difference in 2 months! All my age spots and freckles are gone, and I think it even made some of my wrinkles not look as deep. I love the result, and Amanda did not mislead me. Thank you for truly caring.
