Carboxytherapy
Aesthetic medicineCarboxytherapy for cellulite is one of the most effective treatments for improving circulation, reducing water retention and making the skin smoother and firmer. Thanks to the action of carbon dioxide (CO₂), this technique promotes the drainage of fluids, stimulates tissue metabolism and helps to reduce the appearance of orange peel skin.
If you wish to combat the unsightly appearance of cellulite naturally and safely, carboxytherapy is a non-invasive solution that offers visible results after just a few sessions.

FAQ On: Carboxytherapy
Below you’ll find the questions we’re asked most often, but if you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Carboxytherapy is generally considered a relatively painless procedure, but some people may experience a slight sensation of pressure or a tingling sensation during the injections. The level of discomfort varies depending on individual pain tolerance. In any case, the treatment is brief and is well tolerated by most patients.
The cost of carboxytherapy for cellulite can vary depending on the frequency of the sessions. It is usually recommended to undergo a course of treatments to achieve the best results, at a cost of a few hundred euros.
The number of sessions depends on the severity of the problem and the patient’s goals. Generally, to achieve visible and long-lasting results, a course of 8–10 sessions is recommended, either weekly or fortnightly. After this period, maintenance sessions may be required on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on individual needs.
After a few sessions, a reduction in cellulite and an improvement in the appearance of the skin can be observed.
The side effects of carboxytherapy are generally mild and temporary. After treatment, you may experience slight swelling, redness or a sensation of warmth in the treated area. These symptoms usually disappear within a few hours. Bruising or infection may rarely occur, in which case you should inform your doctor.
It is important to note that carboxytherapy is a well-tolerated and non-invasive treatment, suitable for those seeking a safe solution for cellulite.
The results of carboxytherapy for cellulite tend to be gradual and improve over time with subsequent sessions. Once the course of treatment is complete, the results can last for several months. To maintain the results achieved, maintenance sessions can be carried out at regular intervals, usually every 3–6 months.
