Zimmer Cryo 6
Proper (air) cooling of the skin is very important during laser treatments. It increases patient comfort and reduces the risk of unwanted side effects.
Zimmer’s cooling systems produce cold air down to -30°C, thereby reducing any pain and preventing thermal damage to the skin during IPL and/or laser treatments.
The Zimmer Cryo is easy to use thanks to its large, clear display, which allows you to select various programs.
Various adapters are available so that the Zimmer Cryo’s tubing can be easily attached to the laser handpieces.

FAQs
The Zimmer Cryo 6/7 blows a constant stream of cold air (down to -30°C) onto the skin. This minimizes pain and thermal damage (burns) during laser treatments such as hair removal or tattoo removal.
You can use the system to cool the skin before the treatment or to cool it briefly after the treatment.
No, that’s not the case.
Unlike cooling sprays or cold packs, the cold air does not interfere with the laser beam or IPL light. This means you can continuously and safely cool the skin before, during, and after laser hair removal.
