What is the principal of a Carboxytherapy treatment?

​

By infusing carbon dioxide into the skin, an acidic environment develops. This signals our organism to secure oxygen to the tissue in the treated region and accumulate natural growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factors). Within several days after the treatment there is an increased natural distribution of oxygen in the places of application, a completely new microcirculation is created, lymphatic drainage is increased and in this way skin regeneration is achieved in a natural way.

What is the history?

​

The beneficial effects of CO2 on health were first discovered in France in the 1930s when it was noted that bathing in the pools of carbon dioxide-rich water at the Royal Spas helped to speed up wound healing.  Subsequently, the therapy was applied to patients with cellulite problems, where circulation is known to be sluggish and is now widely used for a variety of other aesthetic indications in Europe, and North and South America

What happens during treatment?

​

The process involves a special Gel and Activator Face Mask used to infuse the skin with CO2, to encourage an increased flow of oxygen. This helps to regenerate the skin in a much more natural way, meaning that other than a slight tingling feeling during treatment, you won’t feel anything and can go back to your usual activities with no recovery time
