Oxygen-based skin treatments to nourish and revitalize
The passage of time and factors such as pollution, sun exposure, lack of exercise and healthy habits, and stress, among other external elements, affect skin oxygenation, causing signs of premature aging. This lack of oxygenation, which in addition to signs of aging can cause breakouts and pimples, stems from clogged pores due to the accumulation of oil and dirt. However, proper daily facial cleansing and oxygenation help to decongest the skin, giving it a cleaner, smoother, brighter, and healthier appearance. To restore the skin’s vitality and smoothness, and to reduce wrinkles, expression lines, and other signs of aging, aesthetic medicine offers a technique for applying facial oxygen, also known as facial oxygen therapy. More specifically, OxiGeneo technology allows us to harness the physiological processes responsible for increasing oxygen levels in the skin, in order to:
- Soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
- Revitalize the complexion that has lost its radiance.
- Achieve even exfoliation.
- Hydrate and nourish the skin.
- Lightens skin gently and without irritation.
- Reduce skin pigmentation and damage caused by sunlight.
OxiGeneo Facial Rejuvenation is a novel treatment that works simultaneously in three steps:
- Exfoliates the top layer of skin to remove dead cells and prepares the skin to receive active nutrients.
- It cleanses the skin during an infusion process of nutrient-rich formulas.
- It oxygenates through CO2 bubbles that trigger a response that sends oxygen-rich blood to the treated area, through the gentle bursting of CO2 bubbles.
A capsule called Capsugen®, made from a combination of calcium carbonate and citric acid, is placed on the head of the instrument that comes into contact with the gel previously applied to the skin. The contact between Capsugen and the gel produces a significant amount of CO2 microbubbles which, when degassed by the OxiGeneo applicator, disperse and penetrate the skin’s surface. As a physiological response, the flow of oxygen-rich blood to the treated area increases, and the metabolism of skin cells is elevated. Due to the numerous benefits it provides to the skin, in particular, and the body, in general, oxygen is considered “the gas of life,” and OxiGeneo is the most modern technique for achieving the best results in facial treatments. It is a completely natural, non-aggressive, and non-invasive treatment , available at CSI Clínica de Salud Integral in Costa Rica. Contact us !
