Carboxytherapy is a non-surgical method that consists of the therapeutic use of carbon dioxide (CO2) in its gaseous state, whether by percutaneous means or by subcutaneous injection. Technologically, carboxytherapy is one of the latest methods used to fight facial and body aging. Today, it is one of the best therapies for fighting cellulite, excess body fat, flaccidity and body and facial aging.

CO2 diffuses when it comes into contact with fat and part of it goes to the red blood cells; by making contact with the hemoglobin, oxygen is transferred to the tissues. That oxygen is used for metabolic reactions and also stimulates the burning of fat. The initial results can be seen immediately as the quality of the tissue improves, the skin becomes smoother and the affected areas become more slender.
