Carboxytherapy has become a common topic in skin care conversations. CO2Lift PRO is a topical carboxy gel used for the face, neck, eyes, and body. Unlike many treatments, it is a 45-minute mask with no downtime afterward.
What is CO2Lift PRO?
CO2Lift PRO is a topical carboxy gel. It is mixed, applied in a thick layer, left on for 45 minutes, and then lifted off. It can be done in the office or at home, and there is no downtime afterward.
How does carboxytherapy work?
Carboxytherapy uses carbon dioxide. When the gas is delivered through the gel to the skin, the body responds by sending oxygen-rich blood to the tissue. This is known as the Bohr Effect.
In plain terms, the skin reacts to the carbon dioxide by increasing blood flow to the area. The result is increased oxygenation and microcirculation in the skin, which supports new collagen and tissue regeneration.
What do people use CO2Lift PRO for?
- On its own. As a hydration and skin-quality reset.
- Before another treatment. To prepare and hydrate the skin.
- After another treatment. To support comfort and help the skin settle faster.
It is commonly used around facials, dermaplaning, chemical peels, microneedling, injectables, and energy or laser treatments. The timing is different for each one, so a provider advises when to start and how often to use it around a specific treatment.
How is CO2Lift PRO used?
- Massage the small packet to soften it before opening.
- Empty the entire contents of the large pack and the small pack into a mixing bowl.
- Mix thoroughly for 1 minute to activate the carboxy.
- Apply immediately to the area with the small application stick.
- Make sure a thick layer of gel is applied.
- Leave it on for 45 minutes minimum.
- Lift it off gently, and rinse with warm water as needed.
The gel is mixed only when it is ready to use. Once the packets are combined, the carboxy is active, so it goes on right away rather than sitting in the bowl.
How often is it used?
A series of 6 treatments within one month is the usual starting point, followed by 1 to 2 treatments a month to maintain it. When it is used around a procedure, the schedule a provider gives takes the place of that general guidance, because it depends on which treatment was done.
Is CO2Lift PRO right for you?
Whether it fits depends on the skin goals, the treatments already planned, and how it would be worked in around them. Anyone unsure can raise it at their next visit with their provider.
