Our On-Site Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Our Chamber
Our hyperbaric chamber is a full SIT-IN chamber which allows for ultimate patient comfort and experience. Other chambers on the market today require patients to lay flat in a small space. With this model, our patients can comfortably recline while in a seated position, you are able to watch a show/movie on a built-in TV or just take a nice nap!
Our chamber also features an ionizer unit which enhances treatment as it releases negative ions into the air and attaches to tiny airborne particles like dust, toxins, and germs. Having an ionizer within the hyperbaric chamber allows patients to be able to experience the relaxing benefit of fresh air similar to being on a beach. It allows patients to receive pure oxygen containing negative ions at high pressure and promotes the body’s self-renewal process and enhances the vitality of immune cells. Negative ions provide certain cardiorespiratory benefits that may be synergistic with hyperbaric treatment.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) works by exposing the body to up to 95% medical grade oxygen while being in an environment of increased atmospheric pressure, thus, healing is accelerated and is significantly improved. Post-operative bruising, swelling and inflammation are also reduced following the treatments. This is especially important for patients who have a history of smoking, history of face/neck surgery, or have used energy-based devices in the past (eg. Ultherapy, Kybella, Morpheus etc).
Since we all need oxygen to heal after any surgical treatment, we provide our patients with a state-of-the-art Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber in conjunction with their cosmetic surgery. During treatment you can relax by watching a movie, listening to music or just resting. Three sessions are included with every Extended Deep Plane Facelift.
Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
HBOT can also be done for overall wellbeing, even if you have not had surgery recently. By increasing the amount of oxygen in your body, it can:
- Decrease inflammation and swelling
- Strengthen the body’s immune system
- Increase collagen production
- Stimulate growth of new blood vessels
- Improve brain function by promoting growth of new brain cells, leading to improvements in cognitive function, memory, and overall brain health.
- Enhance athletic performance by improving endurance and reducing muscle fatigue.
What to Expect During Your Session
- Pressure increase – As the pressure inside the chamber increases, you will feel a sensation in your ears similar to when an airplane is taking off. We will guide you on how to equalize this pressure.
- Breathing increased oxygen – Once the desired pressure is reached, we will administer increased oxygen. Sessions last 60-90 minutes. During this time, you can watch a show or just relax.
- Pressure decrease – As the session reaches the end, the pressure will slowly be decreased. You may experience a slight popping sensation in your ears as the pressure normalizes.
