| How it feels & anesthesia | No numbing cream required. The 5°C cooled tip glides smoothly over the skin while a deep, soothing warmth builds underneath. | Topical numbing cream is applied beforehand; you feel firm stamping pressure and brief warmth with each pulse. |

| Downtime & recovery | None. Mild pinkness or warmth settles within hours, and you can apply makeup or return to workouts immediately. | 2 to 5 days of pinpoint redness, mild swelling, and tiny grid marks as the micro-channels heal. |
