A study on carboxytherapy showed that abdominal skin treated with this method experienced an increase in epidermal and dermal thickness. Carboxytherapy involves injecting carbon dioxide into the skin for cosmetic and dermatologic purposes. The study included 15 women with visible signs of aging on their abdominal skin. Results showed a significant increase in thickness, collagen, and elastin scores, as well as higher levels of TGF-B1 and VEGF in the treated skin compared to untreated. The study suggests that carboxytherapy may be effective in improving skin thickness and overall skin health.
