Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Cosmetic Procedure Healing

Having any cosmetic procedure can be a very exciting time in your life, but we all know beauty can cause pain.

The good news is that cosmetic procedure recovery such as surgical or non-surgical doesn’t have to be like this anymore! Many women and men are choosing to have hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in conjunction with their cosmetic procedures.

Your body's tissues need an adequate supply of oxygen to function. When tissue is injured, it requires even more oxygen to survive. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen your blood can carry. With repeated scheduled treatments, the temporary extra high oxygen levels encourage normal tissue oxygen levels, even after the therapy is completed.

The oxygen molecules actually shrink under this pressure and can squeeze through constricted blood vessels, inflamed tissue, cross the blood-brain barrier, enter lymph nodes, cerebrospinal fluid, and musculoskeletal system. Essentially, oxygen is delivered into all of our tissues, including areas where circulation is diminished, which is an extremely important component as oxygen is essential for the function and maintenance of every cell in our body, regardless of whether it's an organ, muscle, or bone.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to treat several medical conditions. Dr. Sherry may suggest hyperbaric oxygen therapy if you have one of the following conditions:

Anti-aging

Want to build collagen

Healing after PDO Procedures

Severe anemia

Burns

Depression/Anxiety

Infection of skin or bone that causes tissue death

Radiation injury

Sport Performance/ Injuries

Sexual Performance

Traumatic brain injury (Concussions)

Vision loss, sudden and painless

Surgical or non-surgical procedures

Botox & Filler

Brazilian Butt Lift

Cyst Removal

Breast Augmentation

Mesotherapy

& much more!

HBOT helps to reduce swelling and discomfort while providing your body with at least 10–15 times its normal supply of oxygen. Because of this, many doctors recommend HBOT to help plastic surgery patients recover faster after their cosmetic procedures.

We all need oxygen to heal properly. Exposing your body to 100% oxygen can accelerate the healing process by allowing more oxygen to reach treated areas. This gives your body the opportunity to heal and significantly improve—and in some cases totally relieve—your presenting symptoms after surgery.

The top benefits of combining HBOT with plastic surgery:

  • Speeds up healing and recovery with plastic surgery and reconstructive surgery by up to 75%

  • Dramatically reduces post-surgical bruising, swelling and inflammation

  • Scars have been shown to heal better with HBOT due to collagen production

  • Decreased need for post-procedure pain pills

  • Overall less pain, fewer scars, less downtime for the patient—so you can return to work faster, looking and feeling beautiful!
