If you've been paying attention to the Myüz instagram account you may have seen some (okay a lot of) posts about something called CO2 LiftPro. It may seem like a "goopy" mess but we assure you this at home treatment is as luxurious as it gets.
The CO2 LiftPro is a carboxytherapy gel. Big words, we know. Think of it like a big glass of water for your skin. It naturally introduces carbon dioxide to the skin, which in turn causes the skin to oxygenate and increase blood flow. This will result in a lifted, rejuvenated and brightened complexion, not to mention a 117% increase in hydration for up to 3 weeks.
How does it work?
Carboxytherapy is the use of CO2 (carbon dioxide) to regenerate the skin. When CO2 is applied and absorbed into the skin it causes a rush of oxygenated blood directly to the tissues. This causes collagen to be produced and tissues to regenerate.
Remember how vital oxygen is for all living things and it'll put into perspective how a rush of it can be so glorious for your skin.
Wound and Post-Treatment Use
The CO2 LiftPro carboxytherapy is also a wonderful treatment for sores and wounds including surgical scars, diabetic ulcers and post-treatment for microneedling. It is safe to use on surgical wounds as soon as 24 hours post-procedure. It helps speed up healing time for post-treatment skin by providing that rush of oxygen to the tissues.
The gel is gentle and fast acting, with no downtime. It's going to help heal and liven your complexion. Use it right after microneedling to cut down on the healing process - trust us, the redness will be gone within hours.
Who can use it?
This treatment is safe for all skin types and all clients. Safe for those who are pregnant or nursing. Whether you're looking to target signs of aging or eczema, dehydration or scarring, dullness, dermatitis AND acne, CO2 LiftPro will help.
It is fully safe for eyelids and even mucus membranes. It is safe for younger skin suffering from eczema or dermatitis, and mature skin looking to reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
How do I use it?
Simple. Massage the small packet to soften it up then mix both packets in a bowl for about a minute before applying to the skin.
For facial use: Start under the eyes (up to the lash line) and finish with the eyelids (don't forget the lips!). Leave it on for 45 minutes to an hour and while you relax and enjoy your treatment, the gel will be hard at work displacing hemoglobin (component of red blood cells that binds oxygen) to deliver oxygen to the skin and promote blood flow. We recommend starting with a series of 3 treatments and then just one monthly application for maintenance. Add a second treatment packet if wanting to apply to neck and décolleté.
All in all, this treatment seems like the one-hit-wonder we have been waiting for. If you're still unsure, give us a call or schedule a skin consult to discuss the benefits with one of our talented estheticians. It truly is the most perfect at home treatment and amazing for a big event. Compromised skin barrier? This is for you! Shop here for the CO2 Prolift.
