Why Freddo Beats a Zimmer Cryo 6™

Why Freddo Beats a Zimmer Cryo 6™ 

A skin cooling system needs to do more than deliver cold air. It has to fit your treatment room, be ready when you are, and keep up with a full day of appointments. If you’re considering the Zimmer Cryo 6™, Freddo is worth a closer look for its cooling performance and practical design.

The Problem Cooling Systems Solve

CO₂ lasers, RF microneedling, laser hair removal, laser resurfacing, laser tattoo removal — these are some of the most effective treatments in aesthetic medicine, and also some of the most uncomfortable. Cold air cooling during the procedure is what makes the difference between a patient who grits through it once and a patient who books the full course.

That comfort isn't just a nice-to-have. It's directly tied to retention — more comfortable procedures encourage repeat visits and reduce patient drop-out mid-treatment-plan.

Meet Freddo

Freddo is a cold air skin cooling system from Fabinject, built to deliver Zimmer Cryo 6-comparable cooling performance with smarter engineering underneath:

  • -35°C cooling performance
  • 560W power consumption — roughly half the draw of traditional 1000W systems
  • Under 5-minute startup time
  • Patented self-drying system — automatically vaporizes condensation, no trays, no draining, no staff involvement
  • No consumables
  • FDA 510(k) cleared — cleared as substantially equivalent to leading clinical cooling systems
  • 2-year limited warranty

How Freddo Fits a Working Treatment Room

Cooling performance is essential, but the details around it affect how easily a system fits into your schedule.

Freddo’s compact footprint leaves more room for staff and equipment. Its fast startup helps you get ready for the first appointment, while the self-drying system removes the routine task of emptying and cleaning a water collection tray. With no consumables to replace, there’s also one less supply item to manage.

These are practical differences to consider when comparing Freddo with the Zimmer Cryo 6™: how much space the unit takes up, how quickly it is ready, and how much attention it needs between treatments.

Where Freddo Fits Your Treatment Menu

Freddo is built for consistent performance across the procedures that need it most:

  • CO₂ Laser
  • RF Microneedling
  • Laser Hair Removal
  • Laser Resurfacing
  • Laser Tattoo Removal

What You Actually Gain

  • Improved patient experience — real comfort during advanced aesthetic treatments, not just marketing language
  • Clinical confidence — consistent performance during high-energy laser and RF procedures
  • Operational reliability — no consumables, no manual draining, built for demanding clinical schedules
  • Stronger retention — more comfortable procedures support repeat visits and reduce drop-out
