What is Carboxytherapy?
Carboxytherapy is a CO2 gas that reduces dark circles, improves stretch marks and cellulite, and tightens the skin. Results will be visible after the 2nd or 3rd treatment of a 4–6-week programme or course. After treatment, there may be bruising that subsides after 3-7 days, depending on the area treated and skin sensitivity.
If you would like to book a consultation, we are open from 10.00am – 8.00pm Monday to Friday.

The Procedure
-
Prior To Treatment
Carboxytherapy, like any other injectable therapy, requires the correct candidate with a medical history that allows us to perform this Co2 therapy. We recommend avoiding blood-thinning drugs and medications, if possible, 48 hours before the treatment. Everything will be explained in detail over the face-to-face consultation.
-
Treatment
Depending on what area you are treating, for example, eyes for dark circle rejuvenation, the body for stretch mark reduction or the face for a skin tightening collagen boost session, Carboxy is injected into the area using a small needle. This will inflate the area, creating a trauma allowing collagen and blood flow to come and do its magic. There may be some bruising. There will be no discomfort once treatment is over, just a slight redness.
-
What To Expect
Carboxytherapy is performed using a small needle and a co2 gas. There is a slight stinging sensation when the gas is administered into the area to be treated. The skin inflates a little but will go down almost straight away. Bruising may occur, and mild redness. Treatment time is between 20-60mins depending on the area treated.
-
After Treatment
You will feel some tingling sensation, and some patients may experience tenderness in the area for about 2 to 3 days. Bruising is very common due to the nature of the treatment, but overall, it is what we call a lunchtime procedure; the downtime is minimal. We recommend staying away from the gym and outdoor activities for 48 hours and avoiding high heat temperatures such as sauna, steam room, hot bath, and hot shower for 48 hours.

After a body treatment for stretch marks or cellulite, you may be red and sometimes a little swollen and usually subsides after 24 hrs.
When treating for stretch marks and cellulite, bruising is quite common due to the sensitive nature and style of Carboxy that needs to be performed to get results. We recommend an arnica gel to help the downtime or arnica tablets before treatment.
Carboxytherapy is considered to be a lunchtime procedure with minimum downtime. So yes, you can go back to work straight after your treatment.
But please remember that bruising is always possible when using a needle during your treatment. Make-up can be used to hide the bruise.
