what is cryotherapy? how does GlowMaxy™ Face Beautifier work on this technique to improve your skin health?
The term "cryotherapy" comes from the Greek words "kryos" (cold) and "therapeia" (healing), and it is used in various forms to promote healing, reduce inflammation, improve recovery, and even support skin health..
Cryotherapy on the face is used for its numerous skin benefits, including reducing inflammation, tightening the skin, and promoting overall skin health. It works by exposing the skin to cold temperatures for a short duration, which triggers several physiological responses that support skin rejuvenation. Here's how it works on the skin.
1. Vasoconstriction (Narrowing of Blood Vessels):
When cold is applied to the skin, blood vessels constrict (narrow), which reduces blood flow to the area. This helps to reduce inflammation, redness, and puffiness. The cooling effect can calm skin conditions like acne or rosacea, where inflammation is prominent.
2. Vasodilation (Widening of Blood Vessels):
Once the cold exposure ends and the skin starts to warm up again, blood vessels dilate (widen), allowing for increased blood flow. This enhances oxygen and nutrient delivery to skin cells, aiding in skin healing and rejuvenation.
3. Stimulates Collagen Production:
The cold stimulates the skin’s deeper layers, encouraging the production of collagen. Collagen is essential for skin elasticity and firmness, which helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Over time, this can lead to a more youthful appearance.
4. Reduces Swelling and Puffiness:
Cryotherapy can be particularly effective at reducing puffiness, especially around the eyes. The cold helps to decrease fluid retention in the skin, helping to drain excess fluid and reduce swelling.
5. Improves Skin Tone and Texture:
By boosting circulation and encouraging cell regeneration, cryotherapy helps improve the overall texture and tone of the skin. It encourages the shedding of dead skin cells and promotes the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
6. Reduces Acne and Excess Oil Production:
The cold has an astringent effect, tightening pores and reducing excess oil production, which can be helpful in preventing acne breakouts. Additionally, the cooling effect can help reduce the growth of bacteria that contribute to acne.
7. Calms and Soothes the Skin:
After more invasive treatments like facials, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion, cryotherapy can soothe the skin by reducing irritation and redness. It has a calming effect that can make the skin feel refreshed.

Why People Use Cryotherapy on the Face:

- Acne Treatment: By reducing inflammation, excess oil, and bacteria on the skin, cryotherapy can help control acne outbreaks.
- Puffiness Reduction: It effectively reduces swelling, especially around the eyes, making the skin look less tired and more awake.

How Cryotherapy is applied to the Face with
GlowMaxy™ Face Beautifier
1. Whole Body Cryotherapy (Cryosauna):
Involves exposure to cold air (typically around -100°C to -140°C) for a few minutes. While this is more common for overall body treatment, some facial cryotherapy treatments use similar technology but focus on the face.
2. Localized Cryotherapy (Cryofacials):
This is a more targeted approach where cold temperatures are applied directly to the face, often using cryotherapy wands or devices. This treatment is usually done in a professional setting like a spa or clinic.
