Enhance Your Laser Resurfacing Recovery with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
At Cosmetic Laser Dermatology, we’re committed to providing you with the most advanced healing options available. That’s why we offer Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as a powerful adjunct to your laser resurfacing treatment.
What is HBOT? Hyperbaric oxygen therapy consists of breathing 100% oxygen under a higher atmospheric pressure than usual, which increases circulation and oxygenation in all body tissues, helping to repair damaged blood vessels, reduce inflammation and speed up the recovery process. Based on extensive clinical experience and positive patient outcomes, we strongly recommend this therapy to optimize your healing process and enhance your results.
Our Partnership We’ve established a relationship with the San Diego Hyperbaric Treatment Center, located in Claremont Mesa, approximately 7.5 miles from our office. This accredited facility operates under the medical direction of Dr. R. Gamboa, a Sports Medicine Specialist, ensuring you receive the highest standard of care.
Treatment Protocol
- Timing: Sessions scheduled for post-operative days 1, 2, and 3
- Duration: 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours per session
- Cost: $215 per session (special rate for our patients, pricing subject to change)
- Scheduling: We handle all scheduling arrangements for your convenience
Important Considerations
- HBOT sessions are voluntary but strongly recommended
- Patients are responsible for the cost of treatments
- Cannot be used by patients with asthma or other pulmonary conditions
- Not suitable for patients with recent ear surgery, fever, cold, or certain lung diseases
What to Expect Our specialized protocols are tailored based on your specific laser resurfacing procedure, with some treatments requiring as little as one post-surgery session, while others may benefit from the full three-session protocol. We provide detailed instructions to maximize the benefit of your HBOT treatments in coordination with your standard post-operative care regimen.
The Science Behind HBOT HBOT has proven therapeutic results based on the physiological effects of increased tissue oxygenation and improved oxygen bioavailability, with research showing it plays a function in vascularization, angiogenesis, and collagen production augmentation.
For more information about incorporating HBOT into your laser resurfacing recovery plan, please discuss this option with your provider during your consultation.
