21.05.2021
Cryomassage is an effective anti-aging treatment that combines the benefits of massage and the effects of cold on the skin. Low temperatures have been used since ancient times in cosmetology to achieve anti-inflammatory and tonic effects. Cryomassage of the face allows dealing with many aesthetic skin defects and is considered a universal, safe procedure. It is important to take a complete course of procedures to achieve a visible positive result.
The essence of the method
Many clients of beauty salons ask: what is cryomassage of the face? The procedure is performed using liquid nitrogen, having a temperature of -196 degrees. A special massage applicator is immersed in cold nitrogen, and then the cosmetologist moves it along the massage lines. No special preparation is required: first, the skin is thoroughly cleansed, toned and then a cosmetologist starts massaging.
Cosmetological cryomassage is used not only for the face. If a woman has cellulite, massage is performed in problem areas, and in case of hair loss, head massage is done. Liquid nitrogen is also used in cosmetology clinics to remove various benign neoplasms (warts, papillomas, moles). It is important to ensure that the procedure is performed by a qualified specialist who can accurately calculate the required duration of exposure to cold on the skin.
