The skin cells’ oxygen levels naturally drop as we age. Environmental stressors such as pollution and extreme temperature also hinder the cells’ ability to regenerate, while the skin gradually loses collagen and elastin. All of these make the skin more prone to aging, irritation, redness, and pigmentation.
The use of Crystal Carboxy CO2 gel mask can increase the skin’s oxygen supply through the release of CO2. It helps infuse the skin cells with CO2, providing an increase of oxygen and other nutrients in the treated area. It leads to cell restoration, offering benefits associated with anti-aging, whitening, and rejuvenating.
Crystal Carboxy rejuvenates the skin using a non-invasive, anti-aging skin correcting technology. This consists of a specially formulated CO2 gel and a dry cotton sheet mask that work together to tackle various skin issues.
Crystal Carboxy produces CO2 and transfers it to the skin cells through the gel layer. It provides the benefits of carboxytherapy without the use of needles.
The Bohr effect offers penetration of CO2, providing oxygen and nutrients to the deeper layers of the skin by increasing blood circulation. This helps improve the skin barrier, elasticity, and cell production.
When CO2 is applied to the skin, it causes the body to think that the area needs more oxygen. It then triggers the red blood cells to release more oxygen (O2), which is important for cell metabolism.
Benefits of the Bohr effect include:
The contact between the mask and the gel causes the release of CO2 gas. The skin absorbs the CO2, which then forms O2 (oxygen) from blood cells to the skin tissue. It activates different processes that contribute to overall skin rejuvenation.
CO2 Carboxy’s Mechanism of Action
What are the benefits of Crystal Carboxy Mask
How is the procedure performed?
It begins with cleansing the skin, followed by the application of Carboxy CO2 gel on the face. Areas around the eyes are avoided. The cotton mask sheet is then placed on top of the gel and pressed down gently. The mask is removed after 20 minutes.
How many treatments are needed to see results?
You can see improvements after just a single session, but it is recommended to get a series of treatments for enhanced results.
Is it painful?
It is common for patients to feel a warming sensation or their face getting hot. There is also a sizzling-like sound, which means that the CO2 is released, resulting in the formation of more oxygen.
Are there side effects?
Skin reddening is a normal reaction after using the Crystal Carboxy mask. This is due to the enhanced blood circulation. On average, the redness subsides 30 minutes after cleaning the skin.
