About

The Glacial^® Skin Story

Headquartered in Silicon Valley, R2 Technologies is the world leader in CryoAesthetics™ medical devices. Our Glacial^® platform for precision contact cooling of the skin has been shown to reduce inflammation and also brighten dark spots.

In 2014, Pansend Life Sciences, LLC, the life sciences segment of INNOVATE (NYSE: VATE), founded R2 together with Blossom Innovations, LLC and Massachusetts General Hospital to develop a technology based on their patented method of Cryomodulation^®. In 2019, R2 brought on a strategic partner, Huadong Medicine Co., Ltd.

Since that time, R2 has conducted the design, development and extensive clinical research to bring Glacial^® Rx, Glacial^® fx and Glacial^® Spa to market along with an exciting product pipeline.
