This revolutionary therapy, which has been trusted in the medical field since 1932, is now widely recognized for its numerous benefits. Not only does it improve skin health, but it also reduces localized fat and stimulates hair follicles, resulting in thicker, healthier hair. As a result, Carboxytherapy has become a go-to solution for individuals seeking comprehensive rejuvenation and lasting improvements.
What does Carboxy treatment do?
Carboxytherapy, or Carbon Dioxide Therapy (CDT), actively addresses a wide range of cosmetic concerns, including wrinkles, cellulite, stretch marks, and hair loss. This treatment works by introducing small amounts of CO2 gas into the skin’s subcutaneous layer, which triggers the body to increase oxygen supply to the treated areas.
As a result, the improved oxygen-rich blood flow rejuvenates the skin, stimulates collagen production, and effectively breaks down fat cells in targeted areas, delivering noticeable and versatile benefits.

Key Benefits of Carboxytherapy
Carboxytherapy provides a variety of customizable benefits tailored to address specific concerns. Its key advantages include the following:
Improved Circulation: By significantly boosting oxygenated blood flow, Carboxytherapy not only enhances skin cell renewal but also promotes healthier and more vibrant skin.
Collagen Stimulation: Moreover, this treatment actively stimulates collagen and elastin production, which helps to reduce wrinkles while tightening sagging skin, resulting in a firmer and more youthful appearance.
Cellulite Reduction: In addition, CO2 injections work effectively to break down stubborn fat deposits. This, coupled with improved lymphatic drainage, smooths the skin and significantly reduces the appearance of visible cellulite.
Scar and Stretch Mark Treatment: Furthermore, by increasing blood flow to damaged tissues, Carboxytherapy accelerates scar healing. It also works to minimize the appearance of stretch marks, offering a dual-action benefit for skin rejuvenation.
Under-Eye Dark Circles: Similarly, the treatment brightens and tightens the under-eye area by improving microcirculation and reducing puffiness. This leads to a more refreshed and youthful look.
Hair Loss Treatment: Lastly, one of its most innovative applications involves stimulating hair growth. By enhancing blood circulation to the scalp, Carboxytherapy nourishes hair follicles, thereby increasing hair density and strength. When combined with complementary treatments like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), it delivers even more exceptional results.
What Can Carboxytherapy Treat?
Carboxytherapy is a versatile treatment that can address a variety of cosmetic concerns, including:
- Wrinkles and Fine Lines: It effectively reduces the appearance of wrinkles by increasing collagen production and improving skin elasticity.
- Cellulite and Fat Deposits: By breaking down fat cells and improving lymphatic drainage, Carboxytherapy helps reduce localized fat deposits and smooth out cellulite.
- Stretch Marks and Scars: The treatment encourages healing and regeneration of the skin, reducing the appearance of stretch marks and scars.
- Dark Circles Under Eyes: Carboxytherapy is an effective solution for reducing puffiness and dark circles, brightening the under-eye area.
- Hair Loss: The increased oxygenation of the scalp helps stimulate hair follicles, encouraging stronger, healthier hair growth, making it an excellent option for those experiencing thinning hair or early hair loss.
Does carboxy tighten skin ?
Carboxytherapy can also be used to help sculpt the body by removing excess fat in specific areas. In addition, injecting carbon dioxide into these areas decreases the number of fat cells and causes the skin to tighten, leading to improved contours.
What does a carboxy facial do ?
Carboxytherapy leads to increased natural oxygen distribution, improved lymphatic drainage, and rejuvenated skin within days of the procedure. As a result, immediate effects include reduced pore size, diminished wrinkles, brighter skin, fewer pigment spots, and increased skin elasticity.
How is Carboxytherapy Performed?
The Carboxytherapy procedure is straightforward and typically lasts 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. During the procedure, a fine needle injects CO2 gas beneath the skin, with the depth and flow rate carefully tailored to the specific condition and area of concern. For cellulite and fat reduction, the injections target the deeper subcutaneous layer, while facial or hair loss treatments involve more superficial injections.
Most patients find Carboxytherapy comfortable. Although you may feel a mild sensation of pressure or warmth as the gas enters the skin, this sensation usually fades quickly. To further enhance comfort, a topical anesthetic can be applied before the procedure if needed.
How painful is carboxytherapy ?
Carboxytherapy is a well-known technique in dermatology, and it has been used for several years to treat both aesthetic and pathological conditions. In addition, it is considered a simple and safe procedure, with mostly mild and temporary adverse events, such as pain and bruising.
What is carboxytherapy for hair loss ?
Carboxytherapy involves the therapeutic administration of small quantities of medical-grade gaseous CO2 or carbon dioxide into the subcutaneous tissues through a fine needle and, in this case, specifically into the scalp. As a result, it helps stimulate circulation and promote hair growth.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Carboxytherapy is considered a very safe procedure with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience minor bruising or swelling at the injection site, particularly around sensitive areas such as the eyes or scalp. This usually resolves within a few days. After treatment, a mild warm sensation in the treated area may persist for up to 24 hours, especially when cellulite or fat reduction is involved. There is no significant downtime, and patients can typically return to normal activities immediately after the procedure.
How Many Carboxytherapy Sessions Will I Need?
The number of Carboxytherapy sessions needed varies based on the condition being treated and its severity. Typically, addressing concerns like skin rejuvenation, cellulite, and stretch marks involves a course of 6 to 12 treatments, spaced one week apart, to achieve the best results. Similarly, treatments for hair loss follow a comparable schedule, often leading to noticeable improvements in hair thickness and scalp health after several sessions.
However, for specific conditions such as recent stretch marks or mild hair thinning, fewer sessions may suffice. During your consultation, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to identify the most effective approach for your unique needs.
How Long Do the Results of Carboxytherapy Last?
Carboxytherapy offers lasting results, typically up to six months, with maintenance sessions ensuring extended benefits. By scheduling regular follow-ups every few months and embracing a healthy lifestyle, you can sustain the remarkable effects of this innovative treatment.
For hair loss, consistent maintenance sessions are key to promoting ongoing hair growth and achieving enduring improvements.
