New Cryoaesthetic Treatment, Glacial Rx, Makes World Debut At Skincare By Peterson

MIAMI BEACH, FL, April 15, 2021—Glacial RxTM will be making its debut at Skincare by Amy Peterson on April 23. Skincare by Amy Peterson is one of three offices in the world to receive the technology and will be the only office to offer the services in the southeastern U.S. when it debuts.

Glacial Rx is a revolutionary in-office CryoAestheticTM age spot removal treatment that has been FDA-cleared to remove benign lesions and temporarily reduce pain, swelling and inflammation. Glacial Rx is the first and only treatment using CryomodulationTM to freeze melanin at the source and improve skin appearance. It utilizes patented cooling technology to remove unwanted dark spots while soothing and rejuvenating skin.

In addition to being effective, the treatment is pain-free with no topical anesthetics recommended. “I am thrilled to be able to offer my customers an effective treatment that is very comfortable. It feels more like a facial,” says Peterson. A long-time proponent of cool versus heat therapies, Peterson is very enthusiastic about CryoAesthetics. “Trapped heat can cause inflammation and exacerbate hyperpigmentation. So these cold treatments are a major win for patients with melasma.”

Peterson, a licensed medical aesthetician Amy Peterson, is sometimes is known as “Miami’s Skin Scientist” due to her early adoption and expertise in cutting-edge aesthetic technology and treatments. Peterson’s background as a clinical educator for brands like Merz, where she instructed doctors on how to use new technology like Ultherapy and Viveve, made her an ideal choice to be an alpha user. This means she will offer professional feedback to R2, the manufacturer, and be the first aesthetician ever to use this technology.

All of these firsts translate into good news for Skincare by Amy Peterson customers, who can expect to begin making appointments to try the new service by late April. Skincare by Amy Peterson has been making waves since it opened last fall. It is located in the heart of south beach in a chic loft building and features a designer home-like interior that belies the next generation aesthetic technology behind the doors. Peterson and her staff are adept at utilizing their many tools, often in combination, for maximum effect. “I like to stack treatments and give my clients a completely custom service. This helps them get the best results both in the near and long term,” explains Peterson, who will likely develop stacking protocol for Glacial Rx.
