Glacial® Rx: Targeting Redness, Inflammation, and Age Spots
Skin inflammation, redness, and age spots are common concerns for people of all skin types and ages. Whether caused by sun exposure, genetics, or environmental stressors, these issues can leave the skin looking uneven, dull, and irritated. Many traditional treatments involve heat or chemicals that can sometimes aggravate the skin further. However, Glacial® Rx offers a refreshing new approach that uses cooling technology to soothe, brighten, and revitalize the skin in a gentle yet effective way.
At Capitis Medical & Aesthetics, we are proud to offer Glacial® Rx in San Diego, CA. This innovative treatment harnesses the power of controlled cooling to target unwanted pigmentation, calm inflammation, and improve overall skin tone and texture. It is a noninvasive solution that provides immediate relief and long-term results without downtime.
What is Glacial® Rx?
Glacial® Rx is the first and only FDA-cleared cryomodulation device designed to treat inflammatory skin conditions and age-related discoloration. Unlike treatments that rely on heat or abrasion, Glacial® Rx uses precise cooling to reduce redness, irritation, and melanin production in the skin. This makes it especially beneficial for patients with sensitive skin or those seeking a more comfortable, low-risk treatment option.
The procedure is safe, fast, and suitable for a wide range of skin concerns, including age spots, rosacea, inflammation, and post-procedure redness. In addition to its cooling effect, Glacial® Rx delivers proprietary serums that further enhance the skin's natural recovery and brightness.
How Glacial® Rx Works
The Glacial® Rx system works through a process called cryomodulation, which involves applying controlled cold temperatures to the skin's surface. This cooling effect calms inflamed skin, reduces vascular activity, and slows down melanin production. As a result, the treatment helps to visibly fade age spots, reduce redness, and create a more balanced complexion.
The device is handheld and applied directly to the skin during treatment. It also includes a cooling mask that enhances the effects and delivers soothing hydration. The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes and requires no anesthesia or downtime.
Benefits of Glacial® Rx
Glacial® Rx offers multiple benefits that make it an appealing option for individuals looking to improve their skin’s clarity and comfort. Some of the key advantages include:
- Reduces redness and inflammation: Ideal for rosacea, flushing, or post-treatment irritation
- Fades age spots and sun damage: Targets excess pigment without damaging surrounding tissue
- Soothes and calms sensitive skin: Gentle cooling provides instant relief for inflamed or irritated areas
- Improves skin tone and texture: Encourages a smoother, brighter complexion with regular treatments
- No downtime: Patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment
Because the treatment is noninvasive and does not involve heat, it is safe for a wide variety of skin types and tones, including those who may not be candidates for other laser or light-based therapies.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Glacial® Rx is designed to be a relaxing, spa-like experience. Most patients describe the sensation as cool and soothing, with no discomfort during or after the procedure. Some may experience mild temporary redness, which typically fades within a few hours.
Results from Glacial® Rx begin to appear within a few days, with continued improvements over the following weeks. For best results, multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the severity of your skin concerns and your treatment goals.
Is Glacial® Rx Right for You?
Glacial® Rx is an excellent choice for individuals dealing with persistent redness, uneven pigmentation, or inflammation who want a gentle and effective solution. It is also a great option for those looking to maintain a calm, even complexion after more intensive treatments like chemical peels or microneedling.
