What is carboxytherapy?

Technique developed in Aesthetic Medicine for the treatment of cellulite, localized adiposity, flaccidity, scars and stretch marks. Also, it is used as a complement to slimming and post liposuction treatments.

The method consists of the percutaneous or subcutaneous application of carbon dioxide (by means of a gun specifically designed in France with the CE mark for this use and giving the flow rate, quantity and injection time of the gas) for therapeutic and aesthetic.

This application of CO2 is carried out with equipment capable of controlling the volume of gas (cm3) with a constant pressure for a determined time. The gas must be of the anaerobic medicinal type with 99.9% purity.

Subcutaneously, CO2 causes vasodilation of the subcutaneous microcircle and makes our body believe that there is a decompensation, which increases the amount of O2 in this area, thus vasodilation and increased local oxygenation occurs.

The results of carboxytherapy vary depending on the patient.
