Carboxytherapy at CARISMA Medical Spa

May 29 2010
Filed In: Argentina, Beauty, Been There Done That, Buenos Aires, Carlos Melia, Tours

Carboxytherapy is an innovative, safe, effective therapy that improves the elasticity of the overlying skin. It is used for skin irregularities, skin tightening, and as a complementary treatment to liposuction (for residual fatty deposits). The procedure works two ways. First, it kills fat cells through a process called lipolysis. Second, it causes blood vessels to dilate, which increases blood flow – and hence oxygenation – to the area. In the process it eliminates the built up fluids between the cells. The end result is fewer fat cells and firmer tissues. Carboxytherapy can be used to treat any part of the body. The procedure is safe, relatively painless, and simple to perform. No anesthesia is required, and there are no restrictions following treatment. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of metabolism, during which it is transported in the blood and exhaled. It is naturally produced by the cells in our bodies every day and is non-toxic.
