✓ Verified ManufacturerAbout
Glacier Scalp Cooling is a pioneering healthcare technology company based in King of Prussia, PA, specializing in innovative chemotherapy scalp cooling solutions. Founded in 2020, the company develops patent-pending portable and wearable scalp cooling devices designed to mitigate chemotherapy-induced alopecia for cancer patients. Their groundbreaking technology operates through four key mechanisms: vasoconstriction to reduce blood flow by 20-40%, reduced cell division, decreased drug uptake, and lowered metabolic activity in hair follicles. The company manufactures lightweight, durable, and low-temperature scalp cooling systems that provide patients with unprecedented freedom and flexibility during treatment. Unlike traditional stationary cooling caps, Glacier Scalp Cooling devices are designed for home use, offering discrete and private treatment options that maintain patient dignity and comfort. Their portable technology enables treatment continuity while allowing patients to maintain normal activities during chemotherapy sessions. Founded by Evan Fisler and Justo Hernandez, who were inspired by personal experiences with cancer care, the company focuses on making scalp cooling technology more accessible and affordable. With their provisional patent filed in March 2022 and LLC established in April 2022, Glacier Scalp Cooling represents the next generation of patient-centered oncology support devices, combining advanced thermal management with user-friendly design to improve quality of life for chemotherapy patients.
