What Are the Benefits of Ribeskin Carboxy Therapy?

Are you looking for a cutting-edge treatment to revitalize your skin and restore its youthful radiance? At Mariko Onishi in Roseville, CA, we offer Ribeskin Carboxy Therapy, a revolutionary treatment that harnesses the power of carbon dioxide (CO2) to dramatically improve your skin's health and appearance.


What is Carboxy Therapy?

Carboxytherapy is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment that involves the controlled administration of CO2 gas beneath the skin's surface. This innovative technique has been used for decades in various medical fields and has recently gained popularity in aesthetic medicine for its remarkable skin rejuvenation benefits.


How Does Ribeskin Carboxy Therapy Work?

The Ribeskin Carboxy system utilizes a specialized gel mask and activator to deliver CO2 transdermally (through the skin). Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the process:

  1. Application: A specially formulated gel mask is applied to the treatment area.

  2. Activation: An activating sheet mask is placed over the gel, releasing CO2 gas.

  3. Absorption: The CO2 is absorbed into the skin, creating a physiological response.

  4. Oxygenation: Your body reacts to the increased CO2 levels by rushing oxygen-rich blood to the area.

  5. Cellular Stimulation: This surge in oxygen and nutrients stimulates cellular metabolism, boosts collagen and elastin production, and enhances lymphatic drainage.
