Carboxytherapy

A large number of aesthetic procedures today are based on the promotion of the human body's natural regenerative abilities, achieving a truly natural and long-lasting effect. One such procedure is carboxytherapy - a widely used procedure recognized by specialists for skin youth, lifting effect, reduction of cellulite, stretch marks and scars, promotion of hair growth and pain relief.

How does the carboxytherapy procedure work?

During the procedure, carbon dioxide or medical carbonic acid gas is injected into the subcutaneous tissue with a very thin needle, fibroblasts are stimulated - cells that produce collagen - a protein that provides structural and functional support to the skin. The more collagen, the firmer, softer and healthier the skin. 
Medical carbon dioxide causes immediate expansion of blood vessels and improvement of blood microcirculation in the subcutaneous tissue, which in turn stimulates lipolysis, prevents lymphostasis and promotes the removal of toxins from the body. Carbonic acid gas enhances cellular metabolic processes, improves blood circulation and restores the skin's natural moisture and elasticity, while reducing pain in the joints.

The introduced carbonic acid gas is removed from the body with exhalation within 30 minutes.

In what cases is carboxytherapy used?

For beauty and youth

With the help of carboxytherapy, natural skin regeneration processes are stimulated - collagen synthesis, formation of new blood vessels. The skin is increasingly supplied with the nutrients and oxygen it needs. Thanks to the synthesis of new collagen, a non-surgical lifting effect is achieved.

For the fight against cellulite and loose skin

Carboxytherapy promotes the process of breaking down fat (lipolysis) and improves lymph flow, which helps to get rid of local fat deposits, cellulite and edema. The skin becomes firmer, the "orange peel" effect decreases. The procedure helps to tighten loose skin in different areas of the body, such as under the chin, reducing the double chin.

For pain relief

Carboxytherapy is a simple, effective and safe method that helps reduce chronic pain and prevent inflammation without medication. The procedure helps to prevent both joint pain, chronic back pain and inflammation, giving the opportunity to restore possible movements. Carboxytherapy is performed at acupuncture points: if the pain is in the joints - in the area of the joints, if in the back - parallel to the spine.
6 to 10 treatments are required to reduce inflammation and pain.

Course duration:

Carboxytherapy is recommended as a course. The exact number of procedures is determined by a specialist for each client individually, depending on the problem to be solved. On average, 3-5 procedures should be performed during the course. The duration of the procedure is from 10 to 30 minutes (depending on the extent).

The first effect can be seen already in the evening after the first procedure. Since the cell regeneration time is 28 days, the real effect will be visible 1 month after the last procedure.  To maintain a more lasting effect, 1-2 procedures should be repeated after 2 months, and then once a year.

After the procedure, temporary redness and swelling are possible, but there are no restrictions on continuing the usual daily routine. It is not recommended to rinse the treated area for 6 hours after the procedure. A couple of days after the procedure, it is recommended to refrain from visiting the sauna and other heating procedures, as well as freezing the treated area.
