Carboxytherapy is application of carbon dioxide (CO2) to tissues of the body for therapeutic use. In fact, it has been used for various treatments since 1933. Carboxytherapy works by supplying CO2 to tissues which results in vasodilation or widening of the blood vessels. This widening of the vessels causes an increase in oxygen-rich blood flow to the tissues. The delivery of oxygen-rich blood leads to cellular regeneration, new blood vessel formation, increased tissue oxygenation, production of pre-collagen, and has anti-inflammatory effects.
CO2 Lift V is carboxytherapy in a topical gel form that is applied to the vagina and labia. It is hormone-free and is beneficial for women of any age and stage of life including postpartum, menopause, cancer survivor, or for general intimate wellness. The application of CO2 Lift V results in regeneration and restoration of youthful functionality of the vagina. Improvement in symptoms of dryness, dyspareunia (painful intercourse), itching and burning have been found. Additionally, CO2 Lift V improves sensitivity, urinary incontinence, mild laxity of the vagina and labia, lichen sclerosus, as well as cosmetic appearance. Typical use is 5-15 initial daily at-home applications followed by one monthly treatment for regular maintenance.
