What Carboxytherapy can do for you:
Worldwide, Carboxytherapy (Carbon Dioxide Therapy) is rapidly becoming known as the leading skin rejuvenation treatment. It is a safe and minimally invasive. It is a clinically proven method to rejuvenate, restore, and recondition the skin. Carboxytherapy is used to treat fine lines and wrinkles, dark circles under the eyes, loose skin (due to ageing or post pregnancy) cellulite, resistant fat, stretch marks, scars and hair loss.
How does it work?
Carboxytherapy involves injecting tiny amounts of Carbon dioxide (CO²) beneath the skin to break down fatty deposits and stimulate collagen production. The treatment has no downtime and a single session can take between fifteen minutes to an hour. Carboxytherapy infuses CO² just beneath the skin’s surface; the body interprets this as an oxygen deficit and responds by providing a surge of oxygen and nutrients to the treated area and improves circulation, resulting in cell restoration. This Increased oxygen concentration also improves the water retention or oedema in the area.
For a dermal effect, this increased blood flow stimulates collagen, which will soften fine wrinkles and decreases dark circles under the eye and stimulates hair growth.Long term collagen is stimulated with more regular sheets of collagen laid down.
For fat reduction, the heated gas at high volume is introduced deep in to the fat which then breaks up the fat cell and stimulates new vessels and rejuvenation.
For cellulite reduction, a lymph drainage treatment increases the circulation to the area, thereby reducing the build-up of toxins which is a major cause of cellulite. When the gas is introduced into the dermis, it breaks down the superficial fat causing the cottage cheese effect and stimulates dermal collagen levels. This all leads to improved texture and appearance of the cellulite or orange peel appearance.
For stretchmarks, this is the only treatment available for both old and new stretchmarks that visibly repairs the broken collagen and is safe for all skintypes. Carboxy therapy causes the formation of new collagen and subsequently thickens the skin to improve the appearance ot the stretchmarks, rebuilding the collagen matrix.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Carboxytherapy work for stretchmarks?
Stretchmarks (striae distensae) occur when the skin is stretched to the point where the dermal collagen ruptures. Carboxytherapy causes the formation of new collagen and subsequently thickens the skin to improve the appearance of the stretchmarks by rebuilding the collagen matrix. Dramatic results are achieved when used in combination with Skin needing.
How does Carboxytherapy work for cellulite and unwanted fat deposits?
When injected via a specific technique, carbon dioxide gas is directly toxic to fat cells. Once introduced into the fatty deposits, the CO² changes to Carbonic acid which dissolves the fat cell and releases fat. The fat cells literally burst and are eliminated by the body. Increased lymphatic drainage to the area improves the metabolism and excretion of the released fat in problem areas. Dramatic results are achieved when used in combination with LPG Endermologie and Fat dissolving Lipogon or Celluway injections.
