DUBLIN, Calif., April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — R2 Technologies Inc. (“R2”), the world leader in CryoAesthetics™ technology and the creator of Glacial® Rx, the first-to-market in-office precision cooling treatments targeting the reduction of inflammation and removal of benign lesions, announces three new FDA clearances to enhance patient outcomes.

With more than 10,000 patients treated, Glacial Rx is trending high on patient satisfaction as it maintains a 100% Worth-It score on RealSelf and continues to see impressive patient results. In an effort to optimize the treatment experience and add to the platform’s modalities, Glacial Rx is continuing efforts to further develop treatment protocols.
