The Cryo T-Shock does it all: body fat/cellulite reduction, facial smoothing/tightening and physiotherapeutic muscle relaxation/recovery.

The T-Shock employs a rapid and dynamic exchange between hot and cold at various times, temperatures and sequences to induce thermal shock in the tissue.

During a thermal shock treatment, skin vessels and capillaries undergo a period of vasoconstriction followed by vasodilation. This causes stored toxins trapped in the skin layers to be broken down and flushed away. Heat activates collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin. Cold tightens the skin, reduces inflammation and has a lifting effect. The back and forth exchanges between heat and cold reinvigorates elasticity and an improved overall youthful feeling. As the wand passes over the skin it acts to realign the collagen and elastin fibers.

Fat removal using cryo is a technique for stimulating apoptosis. It is a non invasive dermatology procedure for the removal of adipose tissue through the application of cold. The method, developed by scientists from Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard University, uses a plate shaped device applied to the skin to cool the adipocytes (fat cells). Their cold decomposition is possible due to Lipolysis. The procedure was introduced as an alternative to liposuction, with the difference that it is a non invasive treatment and does not involve risks for the patient. Cryo fat removal treatment for subcutaneous fat reduction does not affect liver function. It is a non invasive method to reduce the fat layer without damaging the skin or tissues surrounding the treated area.

APOPTOSIS In contrast to necrosis, which is a form of traumatic cell death that results from acute cellular injury, apoptosis is a highly regulated and controlled process that offers advantages during an organism's lifecycle. Adipocytes are eliminated during Apoptosis when exposed to cold. Clinical studies have shown that the death of adipocytes caused by the cold leads to a reduction in the thickness of fat, evident with Ultrasound measurements but also visible to the human eye. The volume of adipose tissue gradually decreases over time and the adipocytes are removed through an inflammatory process that reaches its peak after 2 or 3 months from exposure to cold. Adipocytes are eliminated for Apoptosis when exposed to cold.

When heat is added to either end of the cryoliposis equation a more dramatic effect is delivered. Heat administered at the beginning of the cycle induces vasodilation which relaxes the tissue. In the next cycle, an extended period of cold penetrates through the dermis to the fat cells to induce apoptosis. Heat again administered at the end of the cycle relaxes the dead fat cells to release their lipids which pass through the lymphatic system over the next 48 hours. The dead fat cells break down and are excreted by the lymphatic system over the next few months.

On the day of your treatment, DO NOT eat sugar or carbohydrates 2-3 hours before your session. This applies to all kinds of sugars (pasta, rice, cereals... )If you need to eat, you can eat veggies and a healthy protein (fish, chicken).
‍
• Avoid exercise directly before a session. It will be harder to cool the body down.
• For optimal results, maintain the best possible diet and lifestyle to accompany the treatment (drink plenty of water).

WHAT TO WEAR:

Wear something comfortable. Depending on your treatment and which areas of the body we are working on, our treatment tables will have a fitted and flat sheet and pillow.

What Should I Do After My Treatment?
1) Keep hydrated over the next 72 hours to help flush out the destroyed fat cells. Increase hydration should occur for at least 4 weeks past, especially for Fat Sculpting & Cellulite treatments.
‍
2) Avoid refined carbohydrates and sugar or anything that converts to insulin 2-4 hours after your treatments. For long-term maintenance, make sure you also eat healthy and exercise, as fat cells can come back.
‍
3) For T-Shock Facials, apply your favorite moisturizer and eye cream to maintain hydration for your skin.

4) Following each treatment client must facilitate lymphatic drainage within 6 hours of treatment and consume a minimum of 32 ounces of water.

5) Lymphatic drainage can consist of: 30 minutes of aerobic exercise; red light therapy; dry heat sauna; massage; vibration plate; or dry brushing.

Yes, but we recommend for T-Shock Fat Sculpting & Cellulite Treatment, to focus on one body part at a time. It is okay to have a T-Shock Facial and/or T-Shock Toning done during a T-Shock Fat Sculpting or Cellulite Treatment appointment.

Can be treated on the same day:
Arms & legs
Arms & stomach
Arms & back
Arms & hips
Hips & stomach
Hips & legs
Face & neck
Face & arms, legs, back, OR glutes
Glutes and legs

Can NOT be treated on the same day:
Legs and stomach cannot be treated on the same day.**
Legs and back cannot be treated on the same day.**

**Larger body areas cannot be treated on the same day because they create a large volume fat cell destruction. Cell destruction results in cellular waste that must be detoxified through the lymphatic and circulatory systems– we do not want to overload the detox system.

Fat and Cellulite reduction - 4 unique settings to reduce fat and the appearance of cellulite.

Body parts: Legs, Gluteus, Arms, Abdomen, Back, And Hips.

Body fat reduction treatments are done in 2 week intervals.

Cellulite treatments can be done weekly.

Cellulite is a change in skin texture that result in an “orange peel” appearance to the skin. Studies show that 85% of women have some form of cellulite. Women have cellulite because the female body organizes fat differently. Fat on the Female anatomy is organized perpendicular to the skin. This results in a pulling down of the skin by the connective tissue resulting in an uneven surface.

In men, connective tissue fibers that organize and support fat run primarily parallel to the skin. This means that men have minimal pulling down of the skin by fat deposits.

Skin tightening and toning - 4 unique settings

Frequency: 2-3 days until your reach results and then 2x a month for maintenance.

Face Application: Red carpet/special event treatment, Reduce fine lines, wrinkles, pore size, crow’s feet, minimumize undereye puffiness. For use on anyone with advanced aging, smokers, from advanced aging toning minimum excessive sun damage, etc. For hormonal acne outbreaks. Reduces inflamed capillaries.

Neck Application: For loose, hanging skin with mild wrinkles.

Double Chin: Cold is used to contract skin. Temporary treatment used for special events

Decollete: Wrinkles / crepey skin reduction. This treatment uses a cold setting focusing on tone and texture of the skin while reducing wrinkles.

The T-Shock manages pain by utilizing a thermal shock treatment that alternates between heat and cold in varying times and frequency. Alternating between heat and cold increases oxygen and microcirculation to the treated area to reduce inflammation, decrease nerve transmission of pain fibres, ultimately reduce the pain.

20 minutes application utilizing the Cryo T-Shock by Pagani.Alternates between heat and cold increases microcirculation to treated area to accelerate healing.

If you have a BMI of 25-30 a minimum of 6-10 sessions for T-Shock Fat Sculpting or Cellulite Treatment.**

A minimum of 5 sessions is recommended for T-Shock Facials if you are looking to improve wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. For clients looking for a one time boost in their appearance for a special event you can book a session to leave your skin looking glowing, dewy, and youthful!

For clients seeking improvement with loose and sagging skin, wrinkles, and see significant skin tightening, a minimum of 6-8 sessions is recommended for Neck, Decollete & Body T-Shock Toning treatments. If you are looking to slim down a double chin, then a minimum of 10 sessions is recommended.

**We can treat clients with a BMI of approximately 30 or less. Over 30 BMI makes it challenging to reach deeper layers of fat. A treatment area is generally defined as the size of an 8 x 11 piece of paper. Larger clients have more surface area and the amount of fat loss in larger areas can overload the detoxification system (the kidneys). A higher BMI will also require more sessions to eliminate fat cells and reduce cellulite.

-Results and number of sessions will vary between individuals
-We offer 5, 10, 15, and 20 Session Packages at a discounted rate

For T-Shock Fat Sculpting and Cellulite Treatments, best results will start to be visible 14 to 21 days after treatment.

Clients can expect to continue to see fat and cellulite reduction for several weeks to a few months after their last treatment. This is because the fat detoxification will continue to occur for that long. It can take several months for the fat to be fully removed from the treatment area. Improvement in cellulite will also continue to occur for several months.

For T-Shock Facials & Toning Treatments, most clients will experience visible results after the first treatment. A regimen of 4 -6 treatments will lead to permanent changes in the skin including increased collagen and elastin—so the skin with be tighter (like a mini-facelift) and more elastic. The sagging, drooping skin will be lifted. Overall a more youthful appearance will be visible.

Longevity of results will vary depending on the individual, their diet, and lifestyle. If you complete a multiple-sessions plan for T-Shock Facials, you can expect improved collagen and elastin to be visible for several years. However, aging and sun exposure will continue so we do recommend maintenance treatments to maintain good results and to prevent future aging and environmental damage.

Single treatments may last up to a few weeks or months.For T-Shock Sculpting, we utilize cryolipolysis and heat lipolysis to destroy fat cells. These cells are gone from the treatment area. However, fat cells can return. Eating healthy and not excessively will also enhance and maintain results.

We encourage a healthy diet that is low in carbs and sugar and engage in an active lifestyle that includes exercise and strength training. Fat Sculpting clients can boost their fat loss to a specific treatment area through maintenance up to 4 times annually at a discounted rate.

For Cellulite Treatment: Since weight gain, age, lifestyle, and skin elasticity contribute to the formation of cellulite, cellulite will come back over time. We recommend a regimen of monthly of Cellulite Treatment sessions to maintain exceptional results. This maintenance regimen is discounted.
