CARBOXYTHERAPY | Much more than Carboxytherapy


arterioles and metarterioles which in turn solves venolymphatic stoppage and determines a lipolytic action resulting from the increase of local tissue blood flow with the activation of receptors — an amplification of the Bohr and Haldane effects. This is a very effective technique, which has some weak points: it is often uncomfortable for the patient and requires a high number of treatments to achieve the best results.

therapy administers


a regulated flow of heated medical carbon dioxide by subcutaneous injections with extremely small needles, therefore avoiding any pain during the insertion phase. Furthermore, owing to the


intelligent electronics of this technology, it is possible to pre-heat the carbon dioxide gas to 42°C before it is injected into the skin, with a notable decrease in pain and burning.


A method unique to the market Gas Contouring® by MBE is an innovative solution; a very effective and totally painless gas-assisted body shaping, facial contouring and lifting technique. This technique involves the


localised injection of carbon dioxide (like mesotherapy) followed by localised infusions of pure oxygen


arbon dioxide works within the microcirculation process to rehabilitate the


pressurised at more than two atmospheres (Medical Oxygen Infusion). Oxy Xtra Med is able to inject, without the use of needles, molecules of oxygen and active ingredients inside the vascular glomus. Once inside the skin, the gas acts on microcirculation, adipose tissues and skin tissues. Compared with the well-known


carboxytherapy, there are great advantages both in terms of improvement of the results, and in terms of tolerability for the patient In fact, the use of the Gas


Contouring technique results in a great improvement to skin elasticity and hydration, and a clear reduction in centimetres to the areas affected by localised fat deposits. In particular, Gas Contouring® has


an effect on adipose tissue: carbon dioxide breaks down the membranes of the fat cells and oxygen infusion promotes the rupture of the triglycerides into fat acids, reducing fat accumulation. For this reason, the technique speeds up the achievement of results. In fact, the oxygen itself promotes a true angiogenesis, and a good production both in terms of quantity and of quality collagen fibres, elastin fibres and hyaluronic acid. At the same time, the oxygen is used as a vehicle to allow specific active ingredients penetrate the skin, therefore attacking the blemish or pathology 'from the inside'.


Further unique advantages The synergic action of Carboxytherapy and Oxygen Infusion determines:

■ Synthesis of dermal fibres having filling effect (collagen I and III)


■ Intensifies the synthesis of fibres having supporting effect (collagen IV and VII)


■ Tones the skin and fills the micro-grooves to give density and volume to the skin


■ Stimulates the synthesis of GAGs (glycosaminoglycans), collagen types I, III, IV and VII, to restore the density and cohesion of the skin
