Cryo Management (Bruise, Swelling Care)

Kkeut Clinic Cryo Treatment

Cryo soothing treatment signifies a delicate approach to the skin recovery process, going beyond simple cold compresses.

After skin procedures such as laser, high-frequency, peeling, and MTS, a sensation of heat can often occur on the skin.

This sensation of heat can go beyond simple stinging discomfort.

It can trigger inflammatory reactions in the skin, promote moisture evaporation, and even stimulate melanocytes.

As a result, various side effects such as redness, hyperpigmentation, and skin troubles may appear.

In such situations, cryo soothing treatment can provide assistance.

However, a cold compress that only provides coolness may not be enough.

It is important to precisely control the temperature according to skin physiology, combine appropriate topical ingredients, and design individualized treatments suitable for the patient's skin condition.

Key Differentiator of Cryo Treatment 1. Precise Temperature Control and Penetration Depth

Precisely controlling the cooling temperature between -10℃ and 5℃,

we aim to deliver a soothing effect deep into the dermal layer of the skin using the 'i-COOL plus' device.

When the temperature of the dermal layer is lowered, it can contribute to improving the speed of skin regeneration.

*Importance of maintaining skin temperature below 8℃

Unlike conventional cold compresses, cryo treatment precisely controls cooling temperatures within the range of -10℃ to 5℃.

This helps to ensure soothing care reaches deep into the dermal layer, based on temperature accuracy.

1) Temperature at which vasoconstriction begins: Approximately 10℃ or below

If the skin temperature drops below 10℃, it can induce vasoconstriction in the epidermal and dermal blood vessels.

This process is expected to contribute to alleviating redness, swelling, and sensations of heat.

2) Point at which suppression of inflammation-inducing cytokines begins: Below 8℃

When the temperature drops below 8℃, major signaling substances that cause inflammatory reactions,

such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, have been reported in studies to have their secretion suppressed.

3) Pain relief effect through reduced peripheral nerve impulse transmission speed

When skin temperature drops below 8℃, the conduction speed of peripheral nerve endings slows down, which can reduce pain sensations like stinging or throbbing.

Key Differentiator of Cryo Treatment 2. Utilization of Customized Topical Agents

To achieve effects beyond a simple cold compress,

it is recommended to apply a gel and ampoule suitable for the individual's skin type before cryo treatment.

1. Soothing and Hydrating Gel (Ultrasound Gel or Aloe Gel)

LDM-specific ultrasound gel helps increase cooling efficiency due to its high conductivity and can contribute to rapidly dissipating heat during the procedure.

Hypoallergenic aloe gel contains anti-inflammatory and soothing ingredients that can help calm sensitive or inflamed skin.

2. Customized Ampoule Mix: Combination of 3 types of ampoules

Whitening Ampoule: Helps prevent hyperpigmentation and can be used for post-treatment care for melasma and blemishes.

Soothing Ampoule: Contains ingredients that aid in skin soothing and can contribute to alleviating inflammatory reactions.

Hydrating Ampoule: Hyaluronic acid-based, it can be expected to improve the moisturizing power of the skin barrier.

Key Differentiator of Cryo Treatment 3. Customized Time and Temperature Settings According to Soothing Goals

1. For soothing treatment primarily aimed at alleviating acute heat sensation and reducing redness/swelling

In this case, the set temperature can be managed within the range of -6℃ to -8℃ for a short duration of less than 5 minutes, focusing on reducing inflammatory reactions with a strong cooling effect.

2. When gradual soothing and long-duration stable cooling are required

In this case, the set temperature is adjusted from -3℃ to -6℃ and managed for more than 5 minutes, allowing for the promotion of the recovery process through stable cooling that does not burden the skin.

Recommended for

• 1. When heat sensation persistently remains after invasive procedures such as Fraxel, MTS, or RF
• 2. When redness lingers for a long time after treatment due to facial flushing or sensitive skin
• 3. When there is a concern about post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after pigment laser or IPL treatment
• 4. When you want to control inflammatory reactions and sebum secretion in blemish-prone skin
• 5. For individuals with a heat-sensitive constitution whose skin easily becomes sensitive or breaks out after treatment
