The idea behind carboxy therapy is a physiological reflex. When tissue registers a rise in carbon dioxide, the body responds by sending oxygenated blood to that area — the same mechanism that makes your face flush. The treatment uses that response deliberately: raise CO2 at the skin surface, and circulation increases beneath it, bringing oxygen and nutrients with it.
In practice it is a comfortable, non-invasive facial with a distinctive tingling sensation and a visible flush afterwards. It is the treatment guests most often book before an event, because the effect appears immediately and there is nothing to recover from.

What happens during the session
- Cleansing and preparation. The skin is cleansed thoroughly so nothing sits between the product and the surface.
- Activation. The carboxy system is applied and activated across the face. Most guests feel warmth and a light tingling or fizzing — this is the reaction working, and it is not painful.
- Development time. The mask is left in place while circulation responds. This is the quiet part of the treatment.
- Removal and finishing care. Everything is removed and hydrating, protective products are applied. The flush fades over the following hour, leaving brightness behind.
What does it feel like?
Warm and tingly, sometimes slightly prickly, particularly around the nose and cheeks where skin is thinner. The sensation builds for a few minutes and then eases. It should never feel like burning — tell your aesthetician if it does and the mask is removed straight away.
What this treatment helps with
- Dull, tired-looking skin that has lost its natural color after poor sleep or long working stretches.
- Sluggish circulation showing as a gray or flat complexion.
- Congested but not inflamed skin needing a reset rather than extraction.
- Pre-event preparation when you want visible results the same day with nothing to hide afterwards.
- Skin that reacts badly to strong actives since this works through circulation rather than exfoliation.
What to expect afterwards
A visible flush for around an hour, then brightness and a fuller, more hydrated look. There is no peeling, no downtime and no need to stay out of daylight, though sunscreen is always sensible. Makeup can go on the same day if you need it to.
Results are immediate but not permanent. Guests who like the effect typically book every three to four weeks, or before specific occasions. For longer-lasting structural change rather than an immediate glow, Collagen Boosting Therapy works at a deeper level.
Who it suits — and when to choose something else
- If your main concern is active acne Acne Care Treatment clears congestion first; carboxy does not extract.
- If your concern is pigmentation or uneven tone Dermaquest Signature White targets that directly.
- If you want lasting firmness Glass Skin Treatment and Collagen Boosting build results over a course rather than in one session.
- Tell your aesthetician first if you are pregnant, have rosacea or highly reactive skin, or any broken or irritated skin on the face. The treatment may need adjusting or postponing.

Is there any downtime after CO2 carboxy therapy?
No. You will have a visible flush for roughly an hour afterwards, which fades to brightness. There is no peeling or recovery period, and makeup can be applied the same day. This is why it is a popular choice before an event.
What does carboxy therapy feel like?
Warm with a light tingling or fizzing sensation, strongest around the nose and cheeks where skin is thinner. It builds over a few minutes then eases. It should never feel like burning — tell your aesthetician immediately if it does.
How long does the carboxy glow last?
The brightening effect is immediate and typically lasts several days to a couple of weeks depending on your skin. It is a refresh rather than a structural change, so guests who like the effect book every three to four weeks or before occasions.
Is carboxy therapy suitable for reactive skin?
It is often a good option for skin that reacts badly to strong exfoliating actives, since it works through circulation rather than by removing surface layers. If you have rosacea, highly reactive skin, or any broken skin on the face, tell your aesthetician first so the treatment can be adjusted or postponed.
