Carboxy therapy therapeutic skin rejuvenation treatment originated at the Royal Spas of France in 1932. Small amounts of carbon dioxide gas: injected below the surface of the skin with a fine needle. 6The carbon dioxide gas (odourless) causes the blood vessels to dilate (vasodilatory effect 8) and stimulate collagen production (Provides texture, resiliency and shape 7). 1 The vasodilatory effect widens blood vessels to allow more blood flow or oxygenated blood thus reducing the build - up of fluid between the cells. 8 "Fewer fats cells result in a firm and younger looking skin." 11 The therapeutic process provides treatment for stretch marks, cellulite (including puffiness under the eye8), and scars with outstanding results. Also, the process improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by eliminating fatty deposits (thighs, hips, tummies, arms or any area of the body 10). 6 On average, the area surrounding the stomach requires four injections to provide skin rejuvenation. 10
