WHY CRYO MAKES THE BEST SUMMER SKINCARE TOOL FOR ALL AGES

Summer is upon us. That wonderful season when we can’t wait to get out of the house to enjoy the beautiful days and soak in the sun.  While it’s great to finally bask in some hot weather it’s essential we protect our skin. And although our skin needs may differ depending on our age, there are certain skin health practices we can all utilize to keep our skin healthy and beautiful at any age. 

REMEMBER THE BASICS

First things first, dermatologists agree that certain skincare practices are a must: sunscreen and hydration. Even during cold, cloudy days harmful UVA and UVB rays can cause damage to your skin and accelerate aging. So it’s even more important during those hot summer months, when the sun’s rays are more intense, to always apply sunscreen before leaving the house. Also, drinking lots of water is a no-brainer. Staying hydrated helps improve skin elasticity and decreases the amount of oil your skin produces (which is a contributor to acne breakouts). We recommend using GLO products which can be purchased at any of our studio locations. 

SECRET WEAPON

But, the powerful tool that’s a must-have in your beauty arsenal is Icebox CryoFacials. CryoFacials involve cryotherapy on, you guessed it, your face. These treatments involve the application of cold to tighten, detox, refresh, and enhance the skin’s appearance, giving it a healthy glow and complexion. Cryotherapy provides a wide array of benefits, targeting individual skin care needs, and is safe and effective for young adults and up.

BENEFITS FOR ANY AGE

During the teen and young adult years, hormones change and can cause an overproduction of oil in the skin which leads to acne. Adding heat and humidity to that mix can further clog pores, exacerbating the problem. CryoFacials can help tame breakouts. These treatments reduce inflammation and redness, tighten pores, and remove dead skin cells, thus reducing oil production and minimizing acne. One of Icebox’s famous facials is the Fixer Upper which is perfect for acne prone skin. 

Your twenties and early thirties are the time to implement anti-aging practices. Especially during the summer when UVA/UVB rays are on full assault, causing skin damage and premature aging. 

To slow down this process, Icebox Specialty CryoFacial treatments facilitate the stimulation of blood flow and lymphatic drainage that rids the body of toxins and waste. Adhering to a skin health routine helps maintain steady collagen production to keep skin looking its best.

Into your thirties and beyond is when you start to lose collagen in your skin causing it to become thinner and drier. The cold temperatures used in CryoFacials minimize pore size, tighten the skin and boost collagen production to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. After just one session, skin appears more taught, has a brighter complexion, and boasts a more youthful appearance.  

 

CryoFacials are your summer ally for healthy, beautiful skin. With a broad spectrum of benefits, these treatments offer amazing results for all skin types at almost any age.
