What is Carboxiterapy?


The Carboxiterapy is a term known in the therapeutic subcutaneous (hypodermic) of carbon dioxide - CO2 . It should always be performed by trained people from medicine area.
What are your indications?
Carboxitherapy is the modern technique in which carbon dioxide is injected into the subcutaneous tissue using a very fine needle, improving circulation and tissue oxygenation, promoting the fight against cellulite, localized fat and flaccidity.

Since carboxiterapy also stimulate the formation of new collagen and elastic fibers, it can also be indicated for the treatment of stretch marks, dark circles, and facial and body rejuvenation.

Besides the dermatology and a esthetic medicine, other medical specialties also benefit from carboxiterpy as: Angiology, Urology, Rheumatology, etc..

How and when it was developed?
Developed in France in the '30s (Thermal Waters of Royat) and led by Dr. Jean Baptiste Romuef through a study of approximately 20 years. Since then has been widely used in various areas of medicine.

How it works?
Carbon dioxide is usually found in the body. In situations of rest our body produces about 200 ml / min of the same, increasing by 10 times compared to intense physical efforts. During treatment, our doctor specialized in carboxiterapy will control the flow of infusion and the total volume injected among these parameters, using flows between 20 and 100 ml / min and total volume administered between 600 ml and 1 liter .

The pharmacological action of carbon dioxide is very well studied. By promoting local vasodilatation with consequent increase in vascular flow and partial pressure of oxygen, there is decreased affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen, resulting in a larger quantity of available tissue, improving microcirculation, tissue oxygenation (potentiation of the Bohr effect), helping to dissolve the lumps of cellulite and rupture of fat cells.

How many sessions are needed?
You may notice your skin healthy, stiffened and reduction measures in inches, usually from the fifth to eighth session.

Treatment includes 10-20 sessions, divided into one or two times a week. The session lasts from 15 minutes to 30 minutes depending on the region.

Can I join other treatments together?
Yes, the association of Mesotherapy, Hydrolipo, lymphatic drainage and a diet supervised by professional staff helps accelerating the treatments.

The treatment is safe?
Logged in the normative of the European Community since 2002 (EC 0051). Is defined as medical device, class IIb presents patterns "standard" of applied quality and safety. This same equipment has marketing approval and use by the FDA American and Brazilian Ministry of Health (ANVISA) - National Agency for Sanitary Surveillance.
There are large number of scientific publications from the 50s, although most concentrate between 1985 and 2002.

The treatment uses CO2 - anhydro-dioxide, a gas non-toxic, non-embolic and present normally in our body as an intermediate of cellular metabolism. Medicinal pure CO2 is also used routinely in surgery videolaparoscopica (to promote abdominal enlargement), as hysteroscopy and contrast arteriography.

The gas used in medicine to promote pneumo-peritoneum in endoscopic surgery uses flows up to 1000 ml. / min with security and the total volumes frequently exceed 10 liters, without significant systemic effects.

What are the possible side effects?
Possible side effects are limited to pain during treatment, small hematoma of the puncture and crackling sensation on site and increased partial pressure that disappears on average within 30 minutes.

You do not need rest or any other type of complementary treatment, since you can return to normal activities after each session.
