Carboxytherapy is the medical application of carbon dioxide injected into the skin using a very fine needle. Between 8 and 12 body sessions are needed to achieve good results.
It can be used to treat: cellulite, localized fat, stretch marks, and skin laxity. It is also used on the face to treat fine wrinkles and dark circles (1–2 sessions are needed).
Possible side effects include mild bruising, slight discomfort during the procedure, or redness.
Sessions usually last between 20 and 60 minutes. Patients can resume normal activities without the need for rest.
It is currently a highly requested treatment due to the noticeable improvement in skin appearance, the speed of the procedure, and the minimal side effects.
