New Technology To Improve Your Skin

By Jeanette Coutin, DDS

For many of us, getting a facial is a calming indulgence akin to a massage or a pedicure though, maybe not as frequent. But getting a facial from a trained professional offers so much more than just a relaxing experience keeping skin healthy, clear, and glowing. There are many different types of facials on the market, but the OxyGeneo facial has some unique capabilities. Here are some frequently asked questions by patients about this technology

What is the OxyGeneo
Technology?

It is an innovative technology for skin exfoliation (removal of dead skin cells from the skin surface), improving skin oxygen levels and infusion of essential nutrients to enrich the skin. The simultaneous skin exfoliation along with skin oxygenation optimizes the absorption of the valuable components in our nutrient-rich gels into the skin.

How does it work?

OxyGeneo works in a three-part process

Exfoliate The Capsugen tablet exfoliates the upper skin layer to remove dead cells, smooth and renew the skin, preparing the skin to receive active nutrients.

Infuse Capsugen cleanses the skin, preparing it for infusion of active ingredients NeoRevive for rejuvenation and anti-aging or NeoBright for skin brightening and texture improvement.

Oxygenate The OxyGeneo effect produces CO2 bubbles which gently burst on the skin surface creating a physiological response, sending oxygen-rich blood to the area. This increases capillary flow and skin metabolism. Oxygenation results in optimal absorption of active ingredients.

What is the duration of an
OxyGeneo session?

Treatment duration is up to 30 minutes, but it may be extended to 60 minutes as your practitioner might combine additional products and treatments in the same session.

Is there down time after the
treatment?

No, You can resume your daily routine immediately after treatment and there is no need for special care. (We do advise you to apply sunscreen to protect the skin.)

How does it feel?

It feels like a massage for the face. The exfoliation is described as very refreshing and comfortable. Many clients fall asleep and wake feeling rested and rejuvenated. Clients with sensitive skin may have a slight abrasive sensation during the session.

Is the session suitable for men, too?

The session is suitable for women and men as both genders will benefit from the outcome. (It is better if men do not shave on the day of the session).

What outcome can I expect from my session?

After an OxyGeneo session your skin should feel smoother, fresher and look brighter with a more uniform tone. In addition you might notice a general improvement in skin texture and in fine lines appearance.
