How It Works

Understand how it works

Healthy Skin Reached by Oxygen

In healthy skin, oxygen bound to hemoglobin and dissolved oxygen in plasma are supplied to cells through the blood vessels.

Reduced Oxygen Supply After Treatment

After scar treatments such as laser, incision, or dermabrasion, swelling and inflammation can reduce microvascular circulation and lower tissue oxygen levels.

Enhanced Oxygen Delivery Under High Pressure

Breathing oxygen in a high-pressure environment increases dissolved oxygen in the blood, which diffuses through the capillaries to reach even oxygen-deprived tissue.

Support for Damaged Tissue Recovery

Increased tissue oxygen fosters an environment for new blood vessel formation and aids the recovery of damaged tissue, supporting skin healing after treatment.

FAQ

Common questions patients ask about this treatment.

A treatment that delivers high-concentration oxygen at higher-than-normal pressure, supporting cell regeneration and speeding recovery from inflammation and swelling.

It speeds up skin recovery.

It's a treatment where you inhale high-concentration oxygen in a high-pressure environment. It increases the amount of oxygen dissolved in the blood, speeding up the recovery of damaged tissue and reducing inflammation. It is particularly effective in reducing swelling, bruising, and redness after laser procedures or surgery.

It may not be suitable for those with upper respiratory infections such as colds or flu, or during pregnancy, so prior consultation is required.

Cautions

Pre & post-care

Essential pre/post-care to maximize results and prevent side effects.

Contraindications for Hyperbaric Oxygen TherapyTreatment may not be possible if you have an upper respiratory infection such as a cold or flu, or if you are pregnant, so prior consultation is required.

Ear Pressure Discomfort During TreatmentPressure changes inside the chamber may make your ears feel blocked; swallowing or yawning helps relieve it. If discomfort persists, let the medical staff know.

Comfortable Clothing and No Metal ItemsFor safety, refrain from using cosmetics and perfume before treatment, and do not bring flammable or electronic items such as lighters and phones into the chamber.

Consistent Sessions RecommendedHyperbaric oxygen therapy is more helpful for recovery when the recommended number of sessions is completed consistently rather than just once, so it is best to follow the guided schedule.
