What Is SubZero Cryotherapy?
Discover how sub-zero temperatures are transforming aesthetic treatments—no surgery, no downtime, just results.
SubZero cryotherapy is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that uses pressurized CO₂ gas at ultra-cold temperatures (-110°F) to target specific areas of your body. This “thermal shock” triggers your body’s natural healing response, delivering remarkable results in fat reduction, skin tightening, and facial rejuvenation—all in sessions as short as 5 minutes.
Unlike whole-body cryotherapy chambers, SubZero is a localized, handheld device that allows precise targeting of problem areas. Think of it as a “cool sculpting” tool that works faster, with visible results often appearing within just 60 seconds.
How Does It Work?
The science behind SubZero is elegantly simple yet powerfully effective:
- Thermal Shock: The device delivers short bursts of ultra-cold CO₂, dropping skin temperature by up to 59°F in just 30 seconds.
- Cryolipolysis (Fat Reduction): The sudden cold triggers fat cell destruction. Your body naturally eliminates these cells over the following days and weeks.
- Collagen Activation: The thermal stress stimulates collagen production, tightening skin and reducing fine lines.
- Vasomotor Effect: The treatment promotes healthy blood flow, reducing inflammation and accelerating healing.
Best part? No bruising, no scarring, no downtime. You can literally have a session during your lunch break and return to work immediately.
What Can SubZero Treat?
Body Sculpting (CryoSlimming)
SubZero is highly effective for reducing stubborn fat in areas that resist diet and exercise:
For Women: Abdomen, Thighs, Batwing arms, Double chin, Breast & butt lifts
For Men: Abdomen, Love handles, Gynecomastia, Jawline/jowls, Double chin
Results: Many clients see up to 1 inch reduction in girth after just one session.
Skin Tightening & Toning
- Tightens lax skin on abdomen, arms, and thighs
- Improves skin texture and elasticity
- Reduces cellulite appearance
- Post-surgery skin recovery
CryoFacials (“Frotox”)
Yes, you can freeze your face—and love the results. A SubZero facial uses a special cone attachment that diffuses the cold CO₂ into a soothing frozen mist:
- Reduces crow’s feet and fine lines
- Tightens “turkey neck” and jawline
- Diminishes dark under-eye circles
- Smooths marionette lines and crepey skin
- Produces an instant rosy, youthful glow
- Stimulates long-term collagen production
Think of it as a non-invasive alternative to Botox—hence the nickname “Frotox.”

SubZero vs. CoolSculpting: What’s the Difference?
| Feature | SubZero Cryotherapy | CoolSculpting |
|---|---|---|
| Session length | 2–5 minutes per area | 35–60 minutes per area |
| Results | Immediate visible tightening; fat loss over weeks | Fat loss over 2–4 months |
| Downtime | None | None |
