Carboxytherapy Overview
What is Carboxytherapy?
Carboxtherapy, also known as Carbon Dioxide Therapy, is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves the therapeutic use of carbon dioxide gas. The gas is injected into specific areas of the body, typically through a tiny needle, to improve various skin and body concerns.
Completely natural and non-toxic, carbon dioxide gas (CO2) is used to stimulate circulation and the production of new collagen for younger and firmer skin.
Carboxytherapy for skin rejuvenation is a very well-established medical treatment. The injection of CO2 has been used since the 1930s to treat leg ulcers, burn victims and amputees, to augment and stimulate the healing process.
Medical-grade carbon dioxide gas (CO2) is infused just under the surface of the skin. In response to this, the body floods oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood to the treatment area. This stimulates new collagen growth and has a beneficial effect on the overall tone and appearance of the skin.
Carboxytherapy is used to brighten and firm the under-eye contour, and tighten loose skin making it a wonderful treatment for helping to fade stretch marks. When CO2 is injected deeper into the fatty tissue, it can be used to treat cellulite and other stubborn localised deposits in the thighs, buttocks, hips, knees and abdomen, improving skin contour and texture.
Carboxytherapy treatment for skin rejuvenation can be used absolutely anywhere in the body.
What are the Benefits of Carboxtherapy?
Carboxtherapy offers several benefits for the skin and body:
- Improved circulation: The injection of carbon dioxide helps stimulate blood flow, leading to improved oxygen and nutrient delivery to the treated area.
- Increased Collagen Production: Carboxtherapy can stimulate collagen synthesis, resulting in firmer, more elastic skin.
- Reduced fat deposits: The treatment can target localised fat deposits, helping to contour and slim areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks.
- Cellulite reduction: Carboxtherapy can improve the appearance of cellulite by enhancing blood flow, promoting lymphatic drainage, and breaking down fat deposits.
- Improved skin tone and texture: The therapy can rejuvenate the skin by increasing collagen and elastin production, leading to a smoother, more youthful complexion.
What Areas Can be Treated by Carboxtherapy?
Carboxytherapy can be used to treat various areas of the body, including:
Face and neck
This therapy can address concerns such as wrinkles, sagging skin, dark under-eye circles, and double chin.
Under eyes
Carboxytherapy sessions have gained popularity in London for how effectively they can reduce the appearance of fine lines and dark circles under the eye.
Hair loss
This therapy involves the injection of carbon dioxide gas into the scalp, specifically targeting areas experiencing hair loss or thinning. The introduction of carbon dioxide stimulates blood circulation, enhances nutrient delivery to the hair follicles, and promotes hair growth.
Body
It is effective for reducing localised fat deposits, contouring the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, and improving the appearance of cellulite.
Stretch Marks
Carboxytherapy can help diminish the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture.
Scars
The treatment can be beneficial for reducing the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars and other types of scarring on the skin.
Hands
Carboxytherapy can rejuvenate the skin on the hands, reducing signs of ageing such as wrinkles and thinning skin.

Is carboxytherapy safe?
First, you’ll have a consultation with a medical practitioner to ensure you’re fit for treatment.

Carboxytherapy can treat all skin types safely and there’s little discomfort or downtime experienced.

The amount of carboxytherapy treatment sessions you will require will depend on your individual needs and we will devise a treatment programme to suit your needs. Typically, patients have between six and 12 carboxytherapy sessions over a period of months.
Patients typically notice a significant improvement within two to six months as collagen production is stimulated.
How much does carboxytherapy cost?
The cost of carboxytherapy can vary from £120 up to £250 per session depending upon time, area and complexity of the treatment.
What our patients say
Natalie and Dr Josh have been incredible in boosting my confidence and my skin! They truly listen and deliver 100% natural results every time. Natalie is completely honest, professional, has integrity and that’s why I trust her fully. Wimpole clinic have a much greater range of cutting edge treatments beyond anti wrinkle treatment that have resulted in my skin improving with age. It’s mad but true. They always assess what is right for my face and my skin on the day and advise according to what my skin needs. I’ve been going to Wimpole Aesthetics for years now, initially drawn to their incredible IV boosts but am now unable to ever turn back. Class, quality and aesthetic results that are truly worth it!!!
Dr Josh is a caring and knowledgeable doctor, his consultation is very detailed, he answered all the questions that I am concerned. Dr Natalie did the filler and skin booster, she takes care of me a lot, even after the treatment she still cares about me, I booked the review after two weeks, highly recommended! Btw, they have a Chinese speaking staff so don’t worry if you are not familiar with medical terminology!
An unpretentious practice. Approachable team with honest, friendly advice. Dr Joshua is amazing and I would recommend him to anyone. He doesn’t prioritise making money like other practices- he will tell you honestly whether you need treatment or not. Acting on clients best interests and well being.
Wonderful experience. Dr Natalie is very experienced and honest. Loved my treatments with her. Fantastic results. Highly recommend her and this clinic.

I would highly recommend !!
I have been living with scarring above my upper lip, as a result of electrolysis treatment 25 years ago, in the form of a deep vertical line and small indentations in the skin. I sought help from Wimpole Aesthetics, and from the moment that I entered the small, personal clinic I was totally put at ease and welcomed by the extremely professional and friendly team. I received a course of Mesotherapy and Dermapen treatment and am absolutely delighted with the results. I had almost given up on ever having smooth line-free skin above my upper lip again. I highly recommend letting Wimpole Aesthetics take care of you.
Having lived in Australia for over 10 years, my skin had suffered mild sun-damage and had developed a lot of discolouration on my face in particular. Also, as I approached the age of 40, I noticed a lot of wrinkles appearing! I decided to have Microdermabrasion treatment and the improvements after just 3 treatments were extremely encouraging. I have booked a further 2 treatments in coming months and I am so excited about seeing further benefits to the look and texture of my skin.
