Carboxytherapy is a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment in which carbon dioxide (CO₂) is infused just below the skin’s surface. When CO₂ is injected into the skin, it promotes blood flow and stimulates collagen production.
This powerful combination rejuvenates your skin from within, reducing the appearance of fine lines, dark circles, and even stubborn cellulite. It is like hitting the refresh button for your skin!
Results typically begin to show after just the 2nd or 3rd session within a short 4 – 6-week programme.
The CO₂ boost encourages your body to increase blood flow to the area, delivering vital nutrients and oxygen that help your skin repair and renew itself. As your skin receives this revitalising treatment, it starts to produce more collagen, the protein responsible for keeping your skin firm and youthful.
Carboxytherapy also provides a natural glow, giving you a fresh, radiant complexion. It is a versatile treatment ideal for addressing various concerns, including dark circles, cellulite, stretch marks, and skin ageing. However, we always recommend a personalised consultation to ensure it is the perfect fit for your skin type and goals.
Carboxytherapy, like any other injectable therapy, requires selecting the right candidate with a medical history that permits us to perform this CO₂ therapy. We recommend avoiding blood-thinning drugs and medications, if possible, for 48 hours before the treatment. Everything will be explained in detail during the face-to-face consultation.
Depending on the area being treated, whether it is the eyes for dark circle rejuvenation, the body for stretch mark reduction, or the face for a skin-tightening collagen boost session, Carboxytherapy is administered using a small needle. This injection inflates the area, creating a controlled trauma that stimulates collagen production and enhances blood flow. Some bruising may occur, but there should be no discomfort once the treatment is over.
Bruising is quite common due to the nature of the treatment, but usually subsides within 3 to 7 days. Overall, Carboxytherapy is considered a “lunchtime procedure” with minimal downtime. We recommend avoiding the gym and outdoor activities for 48 hours, as well as staying away from high temperatures such as saunas, steam rooms, hot baths, and hot showers during the same period.
Carboxytherapy is performed using a small needle and CO₂ gas. You may experience a slight stinging sensation when the gas is administered into the area to be treated. However, most clients report a quick and comfortable experience. The skin may inflate slightly, but this effect usually subsides almost immediately. Treatment time ranges from 20 – 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You might notice a bit of redness or swelling post-treatment, but it is usually mild and fades within a few hours. The results? A smoother, more youthful appearance that you will love showing off!

Carboxytherapy is generally not considered painful. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild tingling feeling when the CO₂ is injected. This discomfort is typically brief and manageable. If you have concerns about pain, discuss them with your practitioner, who can provide advice on how to minimise any discomfort during the procedure.
After a Carboxytherapy treatment, you may experience some mild puffiness if the eyes are treated and slight redness, which will typically subside within 24 hours. For body treatments targeting stretch marks or cellulite, you might experience redness and occasionally a bit of swelling, which usually resolves within 24 hours. When treating stretch marks and cellulite, bruising is quite common due to the sensitive nature of the Carboxy technique used to achieve results. We recommend using arnica gel to help with downtime or taking arnica tablets before the treatment.
Yes, Carboxytherapy typically involves minimal downtime. Most people can return to work or resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment. However, it is a good idea to follow any post-treatment instructions provided by your specialist to ensure the best results and to address any potential minor side effects, such as redness or slight swelling.
Carboxytherapy is a versatile treatment that can be applied to a range of areas to enhance skin texture and appearance. On the face, it is particularly effective for addressing fine lines and dark circles. For the body, Carboxytherapy is commonly used to tackle cellulite, which can be especially beneficial for areas prone to cellulite, such as the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen. Additionally, it can be used on other areas where you wish to improve skin quality.
Carboxytherapy is generally safe for most people. However, it may not be recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions, pregnant women, or those with specific skin concerns. A consultation will help determine if it is right for you.
