Abstract:
This manuscript addresses the use of whole- and partial-body cryotherapy in aesthetic dermatology. Over the past several years, these have become trendy treatments that have been marketed for many purported benefits in overall skin appearance and skin health. With increased access through cryotherapy facilities and medical spas, whole- and partial-body cryotherapy have grown in popularity. Unfortunately, many of the advertised claims have little, if any, scientific evidence behind them. Here, we summarize the data available in the literature. As trends evolve, clinicians should continue to be knowledgeable about them and their evidence in order to properly counsel patients appropriately.
