Treatment Information
How does it work?
The introduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the dermis results in vasodilation, as the body attempts to correct what it considers an imbalance in the O2/CO2 balance. This increases the blood flow which creates a surge of oxygen and nutrients, the result of which fosters cell and collagen restoration and reduction of localised fat. Recent studies suggest that CO2 introduction also stimulates localised production of venous growth factor (VFG), which leads to a long-term improvement in blood flow and tissue quality, thus has the ability to stimulate hair growth on the scalp.
Micro injections at more superficial levels increases circulation resulting in skin rejuvenation, tissue remodelling and improved skin elasticity. Injections at deeper levels into the fatty tissue damages and kills fat cells. The result is thicker, firmer subcutaneous tissue with better texture and fewer fat cells.
Does it hurt and is it toxic?
Some patients may experience mild discomfort; most patients report a warm tingling sensation, followed by a feeling of the skin stretching slightly, this feeling subsides after a few minutes. The Rioblush™ Carboxy Therapy system is the only system on the market which provides heated gas, which dramatically reduces discomfort.
No. It is a natural by-product of respiration and CO2 is present in every cell in the body. The Rioblush™ Carboxy Therapy system introduces very small amounts of the gas under the surface of the skin. In contrast certain medical procedures like colonoscopy, laparoscopy or keyhole surgery introduce thousands of times more volume of CO2 to the body with no adverse effects.
How many sessions & results?
Rioblush™ Carboxy Therapy requires on average between 6 and 12 treatments on a weekly or fortnightly basis, this greatly depends on the condition and area being treated.
Most people observe improvement after the first treatment, though it usually takes up to one month for the body to properly react to the process. More pronounced and long-lasting results are observed after 6 treatments, by which time the skin shows clear signs of healthy rejuvenation. However for cellulite, stretch marks and hair stimulation 10 to 12 sessions may be required.
Examples of treatment regimes:
- eyelid tightening & dark circle – 6 treatments once monthly
- stretch marks – 6 to 12 treatments every 7 to 15 days
- cellulite – 6 to 12 treatments every 4 to 15 days
- skin tightening body – 6 to 12 treatments every 4 to 15 days
- skin tightening face – 6 to 12 treatments once monthly
- hair stimulation – 6 to 12 treatments every 4 to 15 days
Effects can be very long-lasting but the Rioblush™ Carboxy Therapy does not arrest the ageing process therefore maintenance treatments will extend the benefits of the treatment.
Rioblush™ Carboxy Therapy requires no recovery time and has no downtime. However, we recommend following treatment, patients avoid strenuous physical activity for 2 hours and submerging in water for 4 hours as a precaution.

Testimonials
"My stretch marks are awful, they dictate what I can wear and I hate the way the skin wobbles as I walk. After only a few treatments of Rioblush I can already see a significant improvement. The treatment is quick and not painful just a bit uncomfortable. I am excited for the first time in a long time that I have found an easy treatment that is actually showing results."
Mrs Maya, 42yrs, mother of 2
