Cryo T-Shock Treatment Overview

Cryo T-Shock is the most innovative and versatile anti-aging device on the market to eliminate localized fat, reduce cellulite, as well as tone and tighten the skin. It uses state-of-the-art thermography and cryotherapy (thermal shock) to reshape the body. Cryo T-Shock treatments destroy fat cells and increase skin collagen production during each session due to a thermal shock response caused by hot & cold temperatures. Each session takes about 60 min.

The Cryo T-Shock is designed and produced by Pagani in Italy and is the most innovative and versatile device for the treatment of localized fat reduction, cellulite smoothing, anti-aging and sculpting.

The Cryo T-Shock uses thermal shock in which cryotherapy (cold) treatments are followed by hyperthermia (heat) treatments in a dynamic, sequential and temperature controlled manner. Cryotherapy hyper stimulates the skin and tissue, greatly speeding up all cellular activity and has been proven to be highly effective in body slimming and sculpting. Fat cells (in comparison of other tissue types) are more vulnerable to the effects of cold therapy, which causes what’s known as fat cell apoptosis, a natural controlled cell death. This leads to the release of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators that gradually eliminate affected fat cells reducing the thickness of the fat layer. Clients are actually eliminating fat cells, not just losing weight. When you lose weight fat cells decrease in size but stay in the body with the potential to increase in size. With Cryo T-Shock the cells are destroyed and eliminated naturally through the lymphatic system, blood and urine. While men and women tend to store fat in different areas of the body, the Cryo T-Shock procedure is equally effective for both men and women.

Cryo T-Shock sculpting is great for areas of the body where loose skin is an issue. Some skin just needs to be tightened for example after weight loss or pregnancy. A particular set of heat and cold parameters are programmed to tighten and smooth skin without fat reduction leaving a healthier, sculpted you.

Benefits of Cryo T-Shock Treatment

  • Reduces cellulite- Cryo T-Shock reduces fatty deposits by using extreme cold to constrict the blood vessels.  It is a non-invasive treatment of adipose tissue to induce lipolysis-breaking down of fat cells- to reduce body fat without damage to other tissues.
  • Face Lift: Cryo T-Shock around the face and neck triggers deep layers of collagen into production.  This will smooth out facial lines, reduce blemishes, decrease wrinkles, and tighten within a few minutes.  A full set of applications (4-8) will naturally begin to renew production of collagen.
  • Puffiness around the eyes will be significantly reduced or totally eliminated.
  • Pores on the face and neck will be reduced in size limiting the intake of toxins, dirt and grime.
  • Skin conditions such as dermatitis, eczema, acne and psoriasis may be reduced.
  • Metabolic rate increases and endorphin levels will be stimulated.
  • Smooth and tightens loose skin.

What to Expect During Your Cryo T-Shock Treatment

The Cryo T-Shock uses thermal shock in which cryotherapy (cold) treatments are followed by hyperthermia (heat) treatments in a dynamic, sequential and temperature controlled manner. Cryo T-Shock treatments destroy fat cells and increase skin collagen production during each session due to a thermal shock response caused by hot & cold temperatures. Each session takes about 60 min.

The results that Cryo T-Shock achieves also apply to the skin of the face and neck. It immediately improves the appearance of the face by tightening skin and creating a healthy glow. Multiple sessions result in increased collagen and elastin restoring a younger, fresher looking you.

FAQ

Is The Cryo T-Shock Safe?

The device is very safe. In terms of programming and electronics, it is managed by a computerized Windows system. The cooling system is controlled by an electronic temperature sensor located in the processing head of the device and the temperature is controlled in real time by the machine and figures displayed on the screen. Pagani created the Cryo T Shock five years ago and has sold hundreds of units throughout Europe.

How Does It Work?

The body contouring treatments last for roughly 30 minutes and are done manually employing a massage technique. The session begins with 2 minutes of heat and then a prolonged period of cold (22-26 minutes) and then back to heat for another 2-3 minutes.

The purpose of the treatment is to lower the temperature of the fat cells enough to cause what is known as the phenomenon of apoptosis. This phenomenon is triggered when the temperature of the fat tissue is between 12 and 17 C which causes these cells to die. The cells are then naturally passed through the body’s lymphatic system and excreted through sweat and urine.

What Are The Benefits?

Clinical studies have shown that this technology naturally destroys fat cells, but as with most techniques, the results vary from one individual to another. The expected effect is usually rapid: part of the fat cells are destroyed during the session while most will be eliminated within 2 to 3 weeks. It has also been proven to help with micro circulation and a significant increase in collagen due to the thermal shock that is caused by the hot and cold.

How Does It Feel?

The treatment is painless, with some clients describing it as rather pleasant. This is due to the massage technique and the session beginning with skin warming descending into the gradual decrease of temperature.

Contraindications

Anyone with the conditions below should not do this treatment:

  • Kidney disease or dialysis
  • Pregnant women
  • Severe diabetes
  • Undergoing chemotherapy

Frequency of Treatments

Fat reduction treatments can be performed once every 14 days and lifting treatments can be performed every 7 days. There is a physiological reason for this: when apoptosis occurs and some fat cells die, waste is formed. This will be eliminated by natural routes (blood, lymphatic system and urine). Metabolism must therefore be allowed to evacuate this waste without overloading the system.

What Should I Do Following A Treatment?

A vigorous workout, massage or compression will accelerate the benefits.

What’s The Difference Between The Cryo T Shock and Other Body Contouring Treatments?

There are other manual cryotherapy machines. But tests and experience have shown that no other machine is currently capable of such dramatic results as the Cryo T-Shock. These results are due to the fact that the device produces both heat and cold. The exchange within these temperatures has a dramatic effect on the body’s tissues causing them to drop to 12 °.  When fat tissues reach this temperature they die and are passed through the lymphatic system.

Frequency of Treatments

The natural destruction of fat cells will cause cell waste. This waste is passed through the body naturally, first through the blood then the lymphatic system and then sweat and urine. This process on average takes 2-3 weeks.

Maximum Number of Areas That Can Be Treated Simultaneously

Two.  Consisting of one large and one small. Again, to not overload the body’s pathways. There is also strong internal cooling of the tissues and the treating of more zones at the same time could cause in extreme cases hypothermia and fatigue.

  • Arms and Legs
  • Arms and Stomach or Love Handles

Possible Side Effects

There are generally no side effects apart from the amount you urinate will increase slightly over the 3 days following the treatment along with the appearance of your urine in color. Any localized redness will disappeared after a few hours. In rare cases when localized pain may occur but will dissipate within 2-3 hours. Itching may occur however this is generally due to the reaction of certain cosmetic products used by clients.

Who Should Consider This Treatment?

Anyone who is looking to lose weight, reduce cellulite, tighten saggy skin or treat stubborn areas of fat they are looking to remove.

How Long Do The Results Last?

Depending on the individual and depending also on their lifestyle and diet, the results last several months or several years. For Cellulite and Skin Tightening an ongoing monthly maintenance schedule is recommended.

How Quickly Will I See Results?

The first results are generally visible within a week following the first session. However, it should be noted that the best results appear from 15 days to 3 weeks after the start of treatment and extend for several months after the end of treatment.
