[Intensive Soothing for Post-Procedure Swelling & Heat] Cryo Management

Kkeuthan Clinic Cryo Management

Cryo soothing management goes beyond simple cold compresses; it's a process that aids in the smooth recovery of the skin.

After various skin procedures such as laser, high-frequency, peeling, and MTS, heat often remains in the skin.

This sensation of heat goes beyond mere discomfort,

it can trigger inflammation or promote moisture loss. Furthermore, there's a risk of stimulating melanocytes.

This can lead to various phenomena such as redness, hyperpigmentation, and breakouts.

In such situations, cryo soothing management can be helpful.

However, a simple cold compress that only provides coolness may not always be sufficient.

Appropriate temperature management, selection of suitable topical ingredients, and an approach that considers individual skin conditions are crucial.

First Feature: Precise Temperature Control and Deep Penetration Effect

By precisely controlling the cooling temperature between -10℃ and 5℃,

management with the 'i-COOL plus' device can provide a soothing effect up to the dermis.

Lowering the dermal temperature can positively influence the skin's recovery process.

*Why a skin temperature of 'below 8℃' is necessary

Unlike general cold compress methods, cryo management can precisely control cooling temperatures from -10℃ to 5℃,

which is expected to provide effective soothing management up to the dermal layer.

1) Starting temperature for vasoconstriction: approximately below 10℃

When skin temperature drops below 10℃, vasoconstriction in the epidermis and dermis can begin.

This can help alleviate redness, swelling, and sensations of heat.

2) Threshold for inhibiting inflammation-inducing cytokines: below 8℃

When skin temperature drops below 8℃, the secretion of key signaling substances that cause inflammatory responses,

such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, may be reduced, according to reported studies.

3) Pain reduction due to decreased peripheral nerve impulse transmission speed

When the temperature drops below 8℃, the conduction speed of peripheral nerve endings decreases, which can alleviate sensations like stinging or throbbing.

Second Feature: Utilization of Customized Topical Agents

To achieve effects beyond a simple cold compress,

it can be helpful to use gels and ampoules tailored to an individual's skin type before cryo management.

1. Ultrasound Gel or Aloe Gel

LDM-specific ultrasound gel enhances the cooling effect with high conductivity and contributes to effective heat transfer when using the device.

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

2. Customized Ampoule Combinations: 3 Types of Formulas

Whitening Ampoule: Contributes to alleviating hyperpigmentation and can be considered after treatments for melasma or blemishes.

Soothing Ampoule: Contains skin-soothing ingredients that can help reduce inflammatory responses.

Moisturizing Ampoule: Based on hyaluronic acid, useful for hydrating the skin barrier.

Third Feature: Time and Temperature Control Based on Soothing Purpose

1. When soothing management is aimed at rapidly alleviating sudden heat sensation, redness, and swelling

Applying a set temperature of -6℃ to -8℃ for less than 5 minutes can help reduce inflammatory responses through intensive cooling in a short period.

2. For gradual soothing and stable, prolonged cooling

Managing with a set temperature of -3℃ to -6℃ for more than 5 minutes can provide stable cooling without burdening the skin, thus offering benefits in supporting the skin's recovery process.

Those who need this management

• 1. This treatment can be considered when heat sensation persists on the skin after procedures like Fraxel, MTS, or RF.
• 2. It may be suitable for those with rosacea or sensitive skin when redness does not easily subside after a procedure.
• 3. It can be helpful when there is concern about inflammatory post-procedure hyperpigmentation after treatments such as pigment laser or IPL.
• 4. Improvement can be expected for those with inflammatory skin troubles or when excessive sebum secretion control is needed.
• 5. It is recommended if you have a heat-sensitive constitution and your skin easily gets irritated or breaks out after a procedure.

Features of this treatment

• It can comfortably soothe the skin.
• It can help reduce pain, bruising, swelling, and inflammation associated with procedures.
