Carboxytherapy

Carboxytherapy is a procedure involving the injection of medical carbon dioxide with a professional device. At Mawawo, we use one of the most cutting-edge devices, Unique Julie®.

Administering carbon dioxide causes rapid dilatation of blood vessels, increase in blood flow, and thus intensive oxygenation and supply of nutrients. Additionally, carbon dioxide is very effective in breaking down fat deposits, making carboxytherapy one of the most effective and safest methods of fighting cellulite.
