There are two types of beauty treatments: the ones you fervently deny …despite your awareness of whispered conversations in your friends’ WhatsApp groups. (Or, if you’re Kris Jenner, speculated on the front page of People magazine). And the ones you casually drop into conversation like, “Oh this? Just a little something I tried on my lunch break.”
The Infinity Non-Invasive Face Lift at Cryo Stay Young Double Bay firmly belongs in the second category. Efficient, quietly impressive and suspiciously good at making you look like you’ve had a very restful holiday (even if you absolutely have not).
Let’s start with the basics. This treatment is exclusive to the Double Bay clinic in Sydney’s sophisticated Eastern Suburbs, and takes just 20 minutes. Which, in beauty-time, is basically equivalent to the amount of time you might ordinarily commit to your nighttime serum application while catching up on an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
No numbing cream, no downtime, no dramatic post-treatment hiding indoors like a Victorian ghost. You lie down, facialist Ana (calm, knowledgeable, and the exact kind of woman you instantly trust with your face) talks you through what’s about to happen, and four small pads are placed on your cheeks and under-eyes.
Then comes the sensation.
Best described as tiny internal palpitations — not painful, not shocking, just… interesting, it’s almost like your facial muscles are doing Pilates without asking you first. That’s the radio frequency at work, targeting the deepest layers of the skin and contracting them in a way that’s best described as “exercise, but make it facial.”
Radio frequency isn’t new in aesthetic medicine — but like most things, the technology has evolved. Think flip phones versus iPhones. The Infinity treatment uses advanced RF to gently heat the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving elasticity. Translation? Firmer skin, smoother under-eyes, plumper cheekbones, softened fine lines and an overall “you look really good but I can’t tell why” effect.
The immediate result is a subtle lift – nothing frozen, nothing overdone, just a fresher, more awake version of your face. My cheekbones looked like they’d remembered who they were. My under-eyes looked smoother, brighter, and significantly less like I’d been scrolling TikTok at midnight (which I absolutely had).
Ana explained that while you’ll see a glow straight away, the real magic happens over time. The ideal protocol is up to four treatments, spaced one week apart, with results continuing to improve for up to 12 weeks as collagen production ramps up. After that? A once-a-year top-up to keep things humming along nicely.
What I loved most about the Infinity Non-Invasive Face Lift is how realistic it is. This isn’t a replacement for a surgical facelift – and it doesn’t pretend to be. It’s for people who aren’t ready, aren’t interested, or simply don’t want the downtime. It’s for those of us whose mid-face is starting to feel a little… soft around the edges. For anyone whose neck has quietly started betraying them. For busy women who want results without rearranging their entire life to get them.
And honestly? It’s also perfect if you have something coming up — a wedding, a milestone birthday, a Christening where you will be a Godmother — and want to look like the best version of yourself without looking done.
By the time I left Cryo Stay Young Double Bay, my skin felt tight, lifted and calm. No redness, no drama, just a very convincing case for why non-invasive treatments are having such a moment.
So yes … someone probably should have told Kris Jenner. But also… I’m kind of glad they didn’t. This one feels like a very good secret to keep.
