Carboxytherapy

Carboxytherapy is an effective technique used to improve cellulite, metabolism, and oxygenizing the cells, helping eliminate the built up of fluid from between the cells. The end results are fewer fat cells and firmer subcutaneous tissue.

The Carboxy treatment is recommended for people with cellulite in stages 2, 3 and 4, and for stretch mark or red colored skin.

Carboxy Therapy Protocol

For most patients looking for optimal results required between 15 to 20 sessions. It depends on the stage of cellulite. Treatment sessions should be scheduled about three times a week and each session may lasts between 20 to 30 minutes.

Most patients do not report any significant pain during the treatment session. However, patients with less tolerance to pain may experience a light tingling sensation near the injection site, which disappears within a matter of seconds. As a result of the increased circulation, the area surrounding the injection site may feel warmer temperatures for about 10 to 20 minutes.

Considerations after Carboxy Treatments

The skin will noticeably look healthier after the second week. Around the 8-10 sessions, you will appreciate that your skin is firmer. By the time treatment program ends, you will have firmer, cellulite-free skin. Please avoid baths, swimming, or saunas for the 24 hours after each treatment.

Benefits of Carboxy Treatments

The cellulite can stay away for years if you followed a controlled diet, including the ingestion of fats and carbohydrates. On average, it will be five to six months before you see it starting to creep back in, that is why we recommend doing maintenance treatments every month one session.

Concerns of using Carbon Dioxide

Carbon dioxide is naturally produced by the cells in our bodies every day of our life. The quantity used on the treatments is comparable with one exhale. In clinical studies done, it is found that CO2 therapy is a safe therapy with no relevant side effects.

Because of its lipolytic properties and positive effect on skin elasticity, CO2 therapy could play a useful role as a complement to surgical liposuction for the treatment of persistent skin irregularity. And is FDA approve for different uses in medicine.

Side effects of Carboxy Therapy

Side effects are minimal and resolve very quickly. They include symptoms like mild pain at the injection site, a crackling sensation of the skin, and possible bruising of the tissues, which does not leave long-term esthetic effects and all of which are self-limiting.
