Carboxytherapy

Carboxytherapy is a new anti-aging treatment for cellulite reduction by improving local tissue metabolism. Treatments are quick, comfortable and effective for a high percentage of patients. It is the only treatment of its kind approved by the FDA.

Carboxytherapy is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure and it involves the injection of Carbon dioxide (CO2) into the subcutaneous tissue through a tiny needle. Used as targeted weight loss, it is a great alternative to liposuction.

Carboxytherapy works in two complimentary ways:

1. Carbon dioxide mechanically kills fat cells.
2. CO2 also causes dilation of blood vessels in the injection area. Wider vessels mean bigger and stronger blood flow to the area, which means more oxygen. The increase in oxygen is important because it eliminates the built up fluid from between the cells. The end result is fewer fat cells and firmer subcutaneous tissue.
