Tips for Safe Facial Cryotherapy

When using cryo treatment on sensitive areas like the face, it is essential to take careful measures to minimize risk of injury. Start by your skin is clean and dry before starting the session. Avoid placing cryotherapy devices against unprotected skin without a safety layer such as a soft cotton layer or the manufacturer-recommended shield. Restrict treatment time to 10–15 seconds max per area to avoid cold burns or inflammation. Do not use cryotherapy on open wounds, sores or lesions, or areas with inflamed blemishes or allergic reactions. Always test the temperature on a small patch of skin on your side of the neck before treating the full face. Do not use cryotherapy more than daily on the face, and allow at least 24 hours between treatments. Post-session, carefully hydrate the area with a unscented, repairing balm to help restore the skin barrier. Should you notice prolonged redness, loss of sensation, نیتروکسی پن or burning, stop use immediately and seek professional advice. Those diagnosed with Raynaud’s disease or hypersensitivity to low temperatures should refrain from any facial cryo use. Maintain the appliance in a temperature-controlled environment and follow all manufacturer instructions carefully to ensure safe and effective use.
