What Does Carboxytherapy Do?

At Truly You Medical Spa in Lake City, FL, we understand the goal of healthy, youthful, resilient skin is a journey. For those seeking non-invasive treatments to refresh their appearance without surgery, carboxytherapy offers a natural effective solution. This treatment is becoming more popular as it offers a fantastic alternative to surgery and addresses a plethora of skin conditions; like facial wrinkles and rejuvenation, cellulite, elasticity, poor circulation and lymphedema.

What is Carboxytherapy?

Carboxytherapy originated in Europe in the 1930's. It then gained traction in dermatology around 1995 and in aesthetics soon after. Carboxytherapy is a non-surgical treatment that involves injecting medical-grade carbon dioxide (CO₂) just beneath the skin's surface. This process enhances blood circulation, stimulates collagen production, and promotes skin elasticity, leading to a rejuvenated appearance.

More recently, a topical gel form has also been developed that may offer the same benefits as the injectable version without the complications of an injection, but it is not yet widely available, except here at Truly You Medical Spa.️

Whether injected or applied topically, both forms of carboxytherapy work through a mechanism called the Bohr effect, which increases the oxygen (O2) availability in the tissues by increasing the size of the capillaries, thus increasing the blood supply and even supporting an increase of collagen and elastin production.
