Lahore, 6th
December, 2017: Carboxytherapy – an FDA
approved treatment for cellulite and stretch marks have entered into the
Pakistani aesthetic industry. The therapy, which originated in French spas in
1930, uses infusion of carbon dioxide to treat stretch-marks, cellulite and
under-eye circles.
The
non-invasive, no risk treatment is used on the face, eyelids, neck, stomach,
arms, legs, and buttocks and aids in collagen repair and destruction of fatty
deposits. It has almost no side effects as carbon dioxide – the major component
of the therapy – is a naturally occurring gas in the body.
Poor
blood circulation plays a vital role in the appearance of cellulite and dark circles.
Through Carboxytherapy, blood circulation is increased to the affected areas by
injecting the gas. This procedure increases skin elasticity and reduces
pigmentation and wrinkles. Many physicians also used this treatment to treat
alopecia – a hair loss condition of the scalp.
“Carboxytherapy
is relatively painless as the scar tissues do not have nerves. It is effective
as it relies on increasing blood circulation to specific areas of the body; targeting
the underlying cause of cellulite and stretch marks,” says Dr. Tauquir Ahmad, a
UK trained cosmetologist now operating in Lahore.
The
Carboxytherapy is a quick treatment that requires 15 to 20 minutes and
depending upon the condition, a patient requires 7 to 10 treatments. The
therapy is used extensively in Europe and UK and is extensively used to treat
after-birth symptoms as well as erectile dysfunction,
acute arthritis, Raynaud’s
syndrome, and alopecia caused
by poor blood circulation.
