Chill Out

There ’s a new beauty treatment in town, and it ’s sending shivers down our spine – literally

In the name of beauty, we’ve tried almost everything – from acne-zapping needling to chemical peels for a clear complexion. We’ll do just about anything to get that glow going for a little longer, and this time around, we’re excited about blasting sub-zero temperature air on ourselves for tighter, brighter skin and glossier hair. Cryotherapies – or treatments that use extremely cold temperatures – have been used by medical professionals to heal sports-related injuries like muscle soreness for quite some time now. In fact, these colder-than-ice temperatures have also been very effective in fat freezing and weight loss treatments like CoolSculpting, too. Now, this same technology is being applied to facials and hair spas for its numerous benefits.
