Posted under Carboxytherapy q&a

Will the skin return to its previous condition? Could the collagen and elastic fibers be destroyed and it requires treatment?

MilaB
I'm 32. Two weeks ago I had carboxytherapy and after injection to the frown lines gas traveled to the left eye causing sudden severe swelling of the upper eyelid in the degree that I couldn't open the eye for two days. Now I feel laxity of the eyelid skin and observe many horizontal lines that I never had. I'm afraid that it can remain like this.
