How often should Carboxytherapy be performed?

Question

I want to have carboxytherapy for the stretch marks on my tummy. Can you please tell me how far apart the treatments of carboxytherapy need to be spaced in order to obtain maximum results? Thanks very much :)

Thanks for your query. Carboxytherapy works very well on stretch marks. Generally the sessions needed are spaced a week apart. It requires 10-12 sessions for the best result, but it varies and that can be decided only after examining. Hope it helps.All The Best

Hi, 
The protocol for stretch marks is one treatment every week for 4-10 weeks. Sometimes if someone is a quick responder we will go for 4 weeks in a row and then start to space them out to every 2 weeks and then monthly. I tell most clients that they should expect to be treating their marks for the better part of a year if they have many marks or if they are severe. The first signs of improvement come from an overall improvement in the tone and texture of the skin around the marks. Next the marks start to fill in and then they narrow and the last part is re pigmentation if they are lighter than the skin. You can expect at least 50% improvement in all these aspects over the treatment course. Some smaller ones may go away, but most likely you will still see some of the stretch marks, so if anyone promises That they will go away completely, they are not accurate. However, after 20 years of treating stretch marks, I have not had one person not totally happy with the results. And as long as you dont “stretch” the skin again, the results are permanent and there is no maintenance necessary. 
I hope this answers your questions
All the best
