The Power of the Carboxy Facial: Why Oxygen is the Ultimate Skin Booster
We talk a lot about what we put on our skin — moisturizers, serums, acids — but what if we told you that something as simple as oxygen could completely transform your complexion? Enter the Carboxy Facial, a cutting-edge treatment that’s taking the skincare world by storm.
This revolutionary facial harnesses the power of carbon dioxide (CO₂) to trigger your body’s natural oxygenation response, resulting in firmer, brighter, and healthier skin — without needles, downtime, or invasive procedures.
What Is a Carboxy Facial?
A Carboxy Facial is a non-invasive skincare treatment that uses a CO₂-infused gel and activating mask to create a controlled reaction on the surface of the skin. This reaction triggers the Bohr Effect, a natural physiological process in which the body responds to increased CO₂ levels by flooding the area with oxygen-rich blood.
The result? Instant revitalization.
How It Works:
Application of CO₂ Gel: A gel rich in carbon dioxide is applied to clean skin.
Activation: A special mask or sheet is placed over the gel, trapping the CO₂ and stimulating the Bohr Effect.
Oxygen Surge: Your body responds by sending oxygen to the area, increasing microcirculation and nutrient delivery.
Post-Treatment Glow: The skin is left refreshed, plump, and radiant — often with visible results after just one session.
Key Benefits:
Boosts Skin Oxygenation: Enhances cell regeneration, healing, and energy production
Improves Texture and Tone: Smoother, more even skin after just one treatment
Lifts and Firms: Stimulates collagen and elastin for improved skin elasticity
Calms Inflammation: Great for acne-prone or sensitive skin
Brightens the Complexion: Reduces dullness and encourages a healthy, lit-from-within glow
No Downtime: Gentle enough for all skin types, even on a lunch break
Who Should Try a Carboxy Facial?
This facial is ideal for anyone experiencing:
Dull or tired-looking skin
Fine lines or early signs of aging
Acne-prone or inflamed skin
Uneven tone or texture
Sensitive skin that can't tolerate aggressive treatments
Whether you're prepping for an event or looking to refresh your skin seasonally, a Carboxy Facial is the perfect reset.
Pairing with Other Treatments
Want to take it to the next level? Many estheticians pair Carboxy Facials with LED therapy, nano-needling, or cryotherapy (like our Frozen Cryo Glow) to maximize results. The Fire + Ice Facial, for example, combines CO₂ therapy with cooling cryo gel mask for the ultimate in skin balance and rejuvenation.
The Carboxy Facial is more than just a trend — it’s a science-backed skin therapy with real, noticeable results. If you're looking for a non-invasive, glow-boosting treatment that delivers both immediate radiance and long-term benefits, this might just become your new go-to.
