Carboxytherapy, or so-called gas injections, is a controlled injection of pure medical carbon dioxide into various parts of the body with the aim of improving blood supply to tissues, increasing skin elasticity, stimulating the formation of new collagen, reducing fat deposits (direct effect on adipocytes), including improving the cosmetic effect after liposuction. The application of CO 2 (intradermal, subdermal) is carried out using very thin needles 30-32G.

This technique is not new at all; in famous Western Czech resorts (Karlovy Vary, Marjanske Lazne, Frantiskovy Lazne) gas injections began to be used after the Second World War. Currently, the use of carboxytherapy is included in the usual offer of the offices of plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and cosmetologists.

When we are especially determined to receive a procedure that is safe and, most importantly, absolutely natural for our body, carboxytherapy becomes especially relevant. The high requirements that we place on anti-age procedures (efficiency, safety, accessibility, speed of execution) are fully consistent with this technique.
