What is Carboxytherapy?
Carboxytherapy is a treatment in which carbon dioxide is administered under the patient’s skin. The procedure involves injecting CO₂ gas into specific areas of the skin. Its administration increases blood flow to the treated area, which promotes cell regeneration, improves oxygenation, and enhances the supply of nutrients already present in the body. These nutrients do not need to be supplied from outside; rather, the body’s ability to utilise those already present is simply improved.
Carboxytherapy smooths the skin, improves its elasticity and firmness, and helps reduce stretch marks, cellulite and body fat. When performed on the face, it reduces wrinkles, dark circles and puffiness under the eyes.
Carboxytherapy – the procedure
Carbon dioxide stimulates circulation. Thanks to improved circulation, nutrients reach the cells more quickly, and the cells themselves are stimulated to regenerate and grow. The skin responds to CO2 with a controlled inflammatory response, during which collagen cells regenerate. Carbon dioxide therapy is completely safe and causes no side effects.
The treatment takes between a few and several dozen minutes, depending on the area being treated. The treatment does not require anaesthesia or a recovery period. The effects become visible after about a week, and the best results are achieved through a course of treatments.
What results can we achieve with Carboxytherapy?
Carboxytherapy is a treatment with an exceptionally wide range of effects and applications. Thanks to its highly effective impact on skin blood flow, as well as its ability to stimulate the body to produce more collagen, the skin at the injection site becomes brighter, firmer and better nourished, resulting in enhanced regenerative properties.
This facial treatment can, for example, very effectively reduce dark circles under the eyes caused by puffiness resulting from fatigue.
