C3 Treatments

Overview

C3 treatment is a carbon dioxide topical use treatment applied directly to the skin. It increases the blood flow and releases oxygen to the cells in order to accelerate the skin’s metabolism and self-repairing ability of the sagging skin, pigmentation, healing of acne scars and open pores.

A consultation is held prior to your treatment to discuss and decide the appropriate treatment for your specific skin needs. Our experience of over-forty years, guarantees that we will help you make the right choice of treatment for your ultimate satisfaction and best results.

Treatment Benefits

Internal Oxygenation via the Bohr Effect

CO2 causes the skin to experience a biological response that floods the area with oxygenated blood. The high volume of blood moves into the area due to the "Bohr Effect" when CO2 is added to the skin, causing the surrounding cells to absorb oxygen from within, thereby providing immediate restoration of dull, depleted cells and resulting in a bright and vibrant appearance.

Accelerated Cellular Repair and Metabolism

The skin's natural metabolic rate and "self-repairing" ability are greatly boosted by the huge rise in blood flow. This means that the process of healing acne scars will be much faster and the damaged tissue will be repaired much quicker, as the cells are given a large supply of the necessary nutrients for regrowth.

Natural Lifting for Sagging Skin

C3 treatment not only stimulates the fibroblasts (the cells that produce the support structure) but also leads to the formation of new collagen and elastin. It thereby strengthens the skin's matrix, granting a natural lifting effect and enhancing the elasticity of the weakened skin around the jowls and cheeks, making it more resistant to gravity pull.

Detoxification and Pore Refinement

The skin is helped to get rid of the toxins and metabolic waste trapped within through the treatment that promotes intensive lymphatic drainage. The process of deep detoxification along with the increase in dermal density leads to the shrinking of the dilated pores and at the same time gives the skin a much smoother, refined texture.
