Here in Hollywood, you hear and see everything new and everything to do with beauty and looking beautiful just about every minute of every day and all I am hearing about is the new CARBOXYTHERAPY stretch mark removal procedure that is catching on everywhere. There is a short treatment down time which is certainly helpful in making it popular, it is painless and very few follow up treatments are necessary. Up to recently, stretch marks were pretty much untreatable. Injecting very small amounts of carbon dioxide gas just below the surface of the skin, the procedure tricks it into increasing blood circulation to the treated area.

This procedure is showing great promise by softening stretch marks by increasing the blood flow to the stretch mark regions and allowing them to constrict and contract, thus blending them better with the surrounding healthy skin.
Along with stretch marks this process is also being used as a treatment for dark under eye circles, cellulite and stretch mark smoothing and removal.
