seriously i n e e d t o k n o w goddammit
and by cold, i mean temperature. not sickness

@ElderGod-Winter-The-Renegade-Legionnaire book

Well, if you live up North, you basically have no care for heat, and since it's always cool or cold up there, they have a lower temperature as their max temperature, and so they can withstand lower temperatures. Think like this, if a person from the south is fine with (Max)90 degrees, and starts to feel cold at (Min)60 degrees, A northerner would be like this, (Max)60 degrees, and they start to feel cold at (Min)30 degrees. (I hope this really makes sense…)

I'm not sure if this is along the lines of what you're looking for but often animals will have a special gene that allows for the production of an "anti freeze protein" during winter months (like flounders). If you transfer this idea to your superhero then they'd have a genetic shield against extreme cold.
Your cold immunity super power could either be genetic (something the person is just born with) or genetically modified (but they'd have to live in a relatively advanced slightly dystopia society in order for genetic modification of such levels to be both possible and allowed to be performed on humans).
Hope this helps!
EDIT: so I realise I probably way misinterpreted the question. Sorry
