The Science Behind Cold Therapy

How Glacial Skin Works

Glacial Skin utilizes controlled cooling to target skin inflammation — the root cause of premature aging and many skin conditions. Treatments help restore the skin barrier, rebalance the skin, and combat premature aging for healthier, brighter, younger-looking skin.

Glacial Skin utiliza enfriamiento controlado para combatir la inflamación cutánea — la causa raíz del envejecimiento prematuro — restaurando la barrera de la piel para una piel más saludable, brillante y juvenil.

01

Controlled Cooling Applied

Sub-zero temperatures are uniformly applied to the skin surface — precise, consistent, and comfortable. No numbing required.

02

Inflammation Suppressed

Cryomodulation™ suppresses pro-inflammatory cytokines while increasing anti-inflammatory cytokines — addressing the root cause of premature aging.

03

Skin Transformed

Skin appears brighter, healthier, and more youthful. Pores tighten, redness fades, and a luminous glow emerges — instantly visible.

Downregulates Inflammation

Decreases pro-inflammatory mediators and increases anti-inflammatory mediators to calm inflamed skin — leaving it brighter, calmer, and healthier.

Normalizes Melanin

Melanin transfer is impaired and pigmentation is normalized, leaving you with a more even, luminous complexion and reduced discoloration.

Accelerates Exfoliation

Removes dead skin cells and stimulates the production of healthy new ones — leaving a refreshed, renewed, and elevated glow.

Precision. Cold. Results.

Cryomodulation™ Technology

The Glacial Skin device delivers controlled sub-zero cooling directly to the skin — suppressing inflammation, normalizing melanin, and accelerating cellular renewal with zero downtime.

El dispositivo Glacial Skin aplica frío controlado directamente sobre la piel — suprimiendo la inflamación, normalizando la melanina y acelerando la renovación celular sin tiempo de recuperación.

Root Cause

What is
Skinflammation?

Skin inflammation is your body's way of responding to irritation or injury. When chronic and low-grade — caused by stress, UV exposure, pollution, and diet — it silently degrades collagen, increases melanin production, and accelerates every visible sign of aging.

This is inflammaging — and it's the root cause of premature aging. Glacial Fx is the only treatment that directly targets and suppresses this inflammation using Cryomodulation™.
