The cooler way to recover

Hilotherm uses temperature controlled cooling to provide a range of treatments. It can be used following injury or surgery to reduce pain, swelling and bruising. It can also be used during Chemotherapy to help prevent CIPN and hair loss.

How can Hilotherapy help?

Oral & Maxillofacial

Hilotherapy is highly beneficial for reducing pain, swelling and bruising following dental and maxillofacial surgery. Many studies have been carried out looking at the use of Hilotherapy following jaw surgery. These have shown reduced swelling, improved patient comfort, reduced analgesia requirements and reduced length of stay in hospital.

Orthopaedic

Hilotherapy provides a natural way to reduce pain and swelling following orthopaedic surgery. The treatment is highly beneficial following a wide range of procedures including total knee replacement, ACL, hip replacement, shoulder and foot surgeries.

CIPN Prevention

Hilotherm provides controlled cooling to the hands and feet during chemotherapy, This controlled cooling causes vasoconstriction of blood vessels reducing the uptake of damaging substances to the nerve endings.

Scalp Cooling

Hilotherm ChemoCare CIA devices provide temperature controlled continuous cooling. Cooling leads to constriction of the blood vessels at the hair roots reducing their blood flow. This causes a reduction of metabolism, transport and uptake of cytotoxic substances to the hair follicles resulting in visible reduction of hair loss.

Patient Testimonials

  • Highly recommend Hilotherm! The machine provided me with great and immediate relief after my Jaw surgery. The whole process was very easy, the machine arrived in time so it was waiting for me when I came home from hospital. The instructions were easy to follow and the machine was easy to set up. I hired the mask which was unused in the end as the hospital provided me with my own - I wasn’t expecting a refund but the team provided me one! I wouldn’t hesitate to use again!

  • Excellent customer service from start to finish . Hired hilotherm device and purchased facial cuff with link for bi lateral jaw surgery. 100 % recommended the cuff with the link . The one used in hospital did not have the link across the top lip and it made a massive difference . Reduced pain from swelling . Patient described it as heavenly . The mask was worn almost continuously in the first 3 days post op . Only needed for a week . Unused mask was refunded promptly, as promised . Easy to set up and dismantle at the end of use .

  • The recovery process following my husbands jaw surgery was sop good with this device, it made him so much more comfortable and reduced the swelling. we extended the rental period twice.
    we saw the surgeon 2 weeks after his surgery and he was so impressed with how much the swelling had gone down.

  • Used this after jaw surgery for the first few days and it worked really well. It helped to reduce swelling (and I had a lot of swelling). I was able to return it effortlessly after a week and my deposit was returned without me having to chase it.

  • I have got Hilotherm with the full facial mask for my Mum to help aiding with her facelift post-op. She started using it on the third day post surgery and the swelling immediately went down, she also felt much better. The device supply warmer temperature than ice pads, at 12 degrees which was comfortable for my Mum to use and leave on her face multiple times every day. She had it for a a week period, however I would really recommend patients with similar situation to rent it out for two weeks or even three for greater benefit.

  • Rented the Hilotherm machine with the lower face mask to aid with my lower jaw surgery recovery and it was the best decision I’ve made.

    The bruising and the swelling after lower jaw surgery made it quite uncomfortable but having the cold mask on my hot swollen face made it so much more bearable.

    Thank you very much for all your help it has been greatly appreciated.

  • Ordered online and it arrived fast, had some miscommunications that was sorted out by contacting them which they was very helpful,

    Right about the product, ordered/rented the one for jaw surgery as advised by my surgeon,

    If your having jaw surgery you only really need it for a week and for the first 4-5 days I wore this thing almost 24/7, it keeps the water cold running through the face mask, I couldn’t imagine not using this after as I was really swollen and face was almost burning hot, thank god for this product, i was able to sleep with this on, it’s quite pricey but I would say it’s worth every penny, it’s like having a permanent ice pack on your face with the ability to change the temperature, great customer service too

  • Hired machine following my mother's second knee replacement. Results were amazing and recovery rate exceptional compared to previously using ice packs. At 82 years of age there was reduced swelling and she was walking without crutches within a week. Can't recommend enough. Previous comments mention the price....for the results achieved I think it is excellent value for money. Ordered over the phone, fantastic customer service and delivered in time. Thank you

  • I hired a machine for my daughter following her double jaw surgery. Their website was super easy to use. The order was delivered and collected for me exactly as planned. I even called them and got a new strap for my daughter as her original head strap was stained after her op. Ed was my point of contact and thank you Ed for a really efficient service. We would not hesitate to use you again. Thank you.

  • Really great piece of equipment. This has dramatically helped reduce my daughter's post operation swelling and discomfort and speed up the healing process, following major jaw surgery. Thank you and strongly recommend.

  • I used Hilotherm to help with the pain of wisdom tooth removal. The mask and equipment provided was very effective and noticeably reduced discomfort around my face and jaw. Delivery was fast and the team helped answer my questions about how to use the kit. Would highly recommend and would use again (should I have the misfortune of having more surgery).
