Neveskin Shape (CryoSlimming) FAQ

What does Neveskin (CryoSlimming) do?

Neveskin Shape treatments enhance skin firmness and reduce body circumference through a biological process called neocollagenesis. Unlike CoolSculpting, which works by cryolipolysis, Neveskin Shape stimulates collagen production in the dermal and epidermal layers, particularly in the retinacula cutis, without damaging fat cells. This results in firmer, more toned skin and a noticeable reduction in circumference​ without the risk of adverse effects like Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH).

Is it safe?

Yes, Neveskin Shape treatments are safe. The handheld device is managed by a computerized system that regulates the cooling and heating process, and the safety of Neveskin has been validated through rigorous clinical studies, which show no significant adverse effects.

How does it work?

During your session, Nurse Desiree begins with a specially formulated gel in the treatment area to enhance effectiveness and ensure a smooth experience. Then, she uses the Neveskin (CryoSlimming) handheld wand to gently warm the targeted area, followed by a cooling phase that creates a contrasting sensation.

The temperature range during your session, which varies from 24.8°F to 104°F, is carefully controlled to optimize the treatment. Using a specialized massage technique, Desiree gently moves the wand across the treatment area to activate your body's collagen production system, enhancing skin firmness, refining skin texture, and reducing body circumference. 

What are the benefits of CryoSlimming?

The benefits of Neveskin Shape treatments include measurable reductions in body circumference, improved skin firmness, and enhanced skin tone. Clinical studies have shown significant reductions in abdominal and thigh circumferences, and 78% of participants rated their results as good or excellent. Improvements are typically visible immediately, with continued progress over a period of 2 to 3 weeks​.

In which areas can I do CryoSlimming?

CryoSlimming can firm skin and reduce body circumference on the stomach, hips, thighs, back, and arms.

How does Neveskin (formerly CryoSlimming) compare to CoolSculpting?

Neveskin Shape (CryoSlimming) and CoolSculpting are both non-invasive treatments designed to improve body contouring, but they differ significantly in their mechanisms of action and safety profiles. Neveskin Shape works through neocollagenesis, enhancing collagen production in the skin without damaging fat cells. 

In contrast, CoolSculpting works through cryolipolysis, which freezes and destroys fat cells. One of the key safety advantages of Neveskin Shape is that it does not carry the risk of Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH), a rare but serious side effect associated with CoolSculpting where treated fat cells actually enlarge rather than shrink. Neveskin Shape treatments have shown no such adverse effects, making them a safer option for achieving body contouring and skin toning​.

How does it feel?

The treatment involves gentle heating and cooling of the skin. It is painless, with some clients describing it as rather pleasant.

Who would benefit most from Neveskin (CryoSlimming) treatment?

Anyone looking to improve skin firmness, refine skin texture, and reduce body circumference would benefit from treatment. Ideal candidates are those within a healthy weight range with minor to moderate skin laxity​​.

How long does each session last?

Depending on the area being treated, each session lasts 20 to 44 minutes. This appointment duration allows Nurse Desiree to effectively apply the alternating heat and cold necessary to stimulate neocollagenesis​.

How often can I do it?

You can receive a Neveskin Shape (CryoSlimming) treatment every 14 days. This 2-week interval allows the skin's collagen production process to fully respond to each treatment without being overworked. 

How effective is Cryoskin?

Neveskin treatments are highly effective based on clinical studies. Participants in these studies experienced significant reductions in body circumference, particularly in areas such as the abdomen and thighs. Specifically, the studies reported an average reduction of 1.9” from the abdomen with manual treatments and up to 2.5” with static treatments. Additionally, 78% of participants rated their results as good or excellent.

Why can I only have the treatment every 2 weeks?

It takes approximately 2 weeks for the body to fully respond to the neocollagenesis process stimulated by this treatment. This interval ensures that each session maximizes collagen production and provides the best results without overtaxing the body. 

What should I bring?

You do not need to bring anything. All necessary items will be provided to ensure a comfortable and successful session​.

Can I work out before/after my treatment?

Absolutely, there are no side effects to this treatment that will stop you from working out. However, try to avoid rigorous workouts in the hour before your session, as that can make it harder to cool the body.

Why do you need the gel?

The gel used during Neveskin treatments has been specially formulated to retain its properties from -30° to +60°C. It aids in the smooth application of the treatment wand and protects the skin during the alternating applications of heat and cold.

How quickly will I see results?

You may see initial results after your first session, with the most significant improvements appearing from 14 days to 3 weeks after the start of treatment. Your results will continue to develop for several months following your final treatment​.

How long will the results last?

The results from NeveSkin Shape treatments last for several months. Newly formed collagen has a lifespan of 6-7 years. However, the longevity of results can be influenced by factors like age, genetic predisposition, lifestyle, and overall skin health. While your newly formed collagen will last for years, maintenance of visible firming will likely require ongoing maintenance sessions, especially as natural collagen production continues to slow with age.

How can I enhance my results?

Primarily by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and diet. Drink at least 1.5L of water daily for 14 days post-treatment, follow a regular exercise routine, and avoid sugars at least 2 hours before and after your session. Sugar in this context includes carbohydrates, natural sugars (fruits, alcohol, etc.), and refined sugars.

Additional treatments such as infrared sauna, whole body cryotherapy, detox, lymphatic drainage massage, dry brushing, and compression can enhance results when performed at least 72 hours after your Neveskin session.
