Sienna Miller swears by Cryotherapy – here’s how to replicate the treatment at home for a fraction of the price

Sienna Miller has always been a beauty muse; from her enviable skin to her airy, boho waves. 

In case you missed the memo, cryotherapy is one of the hottest treatments at the moment and Sienna is a big fan. The British actress swears by this icy facial for a dewy glow. 

What is Cryotherapy? 

Cryotherapy uses extremely low temperatures to rejuvenate and revitalise the skin. Once reserved for athletes to aid muscle recovery, this icy treatment has now found its place in the beauty industry, promising firmer skin, reduced inflammation, and a radiant glow.

During the treatment, your skin is exposed to sub-zero temperatures for a short period of time. This is typically achieved using liquid nitrogen or CO2 to create a cooling effect on the skin. The sudden drop in temperature constricts blood vessels, reducing inflammation and puffiness. As the skin rewarms, blood flow increases, delivering oxygen and essential nutrients to the skin’s surface, resulting in a fresh, plumped appearance. Trust us, we’ve tried it first hand. 

How does Cryotherapy work?

Dr. Yannis explains on the official 111 Skin website: “Cold therapy stimulates the sympathetic nervous system, which is the body’s fight or flight response. Adrenalin and endorphins trigger the metabolism while providing energy, clarity, and positivity. Consecutively, blood vessels constrict, and blood rushes to the body’s core. After the cold exposure, blood vessels dilate and circulation increases, with oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood rushing through the body.”

There are an array of places where you can get this signature treatment from 111 Skin’s 111 Cyro (a London based biohacking and wellness clinic that uses innovative temperature and light treatments to promote optimal health,) but it can be pricy. So, if you want the feeling of the icy facial but are not willing to splurge – there is an affordable product you can easily grab from the high street to replicate Sierra’s hydrated look. Enter: Ice rollers.

What are the benefits of ice rollers? 

Ice rollers have become a must-have in our skincare routines, they deliver similar results to Cryotherapy, offering a quick and easy way to soothe, depuff, and revitalise the skin. These handheld devices, typically filled with water or gel, are stored in the freezer and rolled over the face to deliver a cooling effect that leaves skin looking fresh and radiant. 

For best results, simply use an ice roller in the morning to reduce puffiness and energise your skin. Roll in upward and outward motions for 5–10 minutes after cleansing or applying skincare products. With consistent use, ice rollers can transform your skin, making them a must-have addition to your beauty arsenal.
