What is cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy uses controlled cooling as part of a non-invasive treatment for the skin or selected areas of localised fat. The way it is used depends on the treatment. Facial and neck cryotherapy focuses on refreshing the appearance of the skin, while fat-freezing treatments are designed to contour suitable areas of localised fat.
Our treatments are cosmetic procedures and are different from the medical cryotherapy used to remove skin lesions.
Which cryotherapy treatments do we offer?
At Skin Techniques, our cryotherapy treatments include:
You do not need to decide which treatment you require before visiting us. During your consultation at our Amersham clinic, we will listen to your concerns, assess the area and explain which options may be suitable.

How it works
How does cryotherapy actually work?
CRYO21 uses carefully controlled temperatures as part of a targeted treatment protocol.
During facial and neck treatments, cooling technology is used alongside other selected steps to refresh the complexion and improve the appearance of puffiness, skin texture and firmness.
For fat-freezing treatments, controlled cooling is applied to suitable areas of localised fatty tissue. Changes develop gradually following treatment as the body processes affected fat cells over time.
The technique, temperature and treatment time will depend on whether we are treating the face, neck, chin or body. Results vary, and we will explain what may realistically be achieved before proceeding.

Common questions
Cryotherapy and fat-freezing FAQs
Is fat freezing the same as cryotherapy?
Fat freezing is one application of controlled cooling, while cosmetic cryotherapy can also refer to skin-focused facial and neck treatments.
At Skin Techniques in Amersham, we offer both. Our Cryo 21 Hollywood Glow and neck treatment focus on the appearance of the skin, while our fat-freezing treatments focus on suitable areas of localised fat.
Can fat freezing help me lose weight?
No. Fat freezing is a body-contouring treatment and should not be presented as a method of losing weight.
It is intended for relatively small, localised areas of fat in suitable clients. During your consultation, we will discuss whether the treatment is appropriate and what level of change may realistically be possible.
How many cryotherapy treatments will I need?
The number of appointments depends on the treatment, the area and your individual goals.
Some clients choose an individual facial treatment, while a course may be recommended for neck or body concerns. We will create a personalised plan following your consultation rather than recommending a fixed number to everyone.
How long does fat freezing take to show results?
Fat-freezing results are not immediate. Changes may develop gradually over the following weeks as the body processes the affected fat cells.
The timing and extent of any improvement vary between clients. We will take your starting point and treatment area into account when discussing likely outcomes.
Is cryotherapy painful?
Clients may experience intense cooling, tingling, aching or temporary numbness during or after treatment. The sensation varies according to the treatment and area.
Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or changes in sensation can also occur. Fat-freezing treatments have contraindications and potential complications, which we will discuss as part of your consultation and consent process.
