OXYGEN at C1 Cosmetics Munich - Frequently asked questions
1. How does oxygen affect my skin?
Oxygen is a real energy boost for the skin:
- it supports blood circulation
- promotes cell renewal
- can improve the absorption of active ingredients
- makes the complexion appear fresher, clearer, and more even
This combination creates the typical oxygen glow, leaving the skin looking more awake, smoother, and finer.
2. What are the benefits of oxygen treatment?
The Oxygen Treatment is ideal if you want an intensive and thorough deep cleansing. The skin is actively cleansed, the pores appear refined and at the same time intensively moisturized. This immediately creates a fresh, radiant glow and the overall complexion appears more even. In addition, cell renewal is supported, giving the skin a more vital appearance in the long term. Whether as a quick beauty refresh before a special occasion or as a regular treatment for targeted skin improvement.
3. How does Oxygen Peel & Glow differ from Oxygen Cleanse & Peel?
Both treatments utilize the oxygen technology of the Skin OXYmizer, but each has a different focus.
The Oxygen Peel & Glow is your glow treatment: The focus is on activating cleansing and a tingling peel, intensive moisturizing, and an instantly fresh-looking, radiant complexion. Ideal if your skin is not irritated but looks tired or dull.
The Oxygen Cleanse & Peelgoes one step further: the focus here is on deep pore cleansing, which is why manual cleansing is also carried out. This treatment is particularly suitable for skin that is prone to impurities or an uneven complexion and at the same time desires more evenness and clarity.
4. Who is oxygen treatment suitable for?
The Oxygen Treatment is ideal for you if you:
- want a thorough deep cleanse
- want more moisture and glow
- want to improve tired, dull, or stressed skin
- want finer pores and more even skin tone
5. Is an oxygen treatment also suitable for blemished or acne-prone skin?
Yes, the Oxygen Cleanse & Peel Treatment in particular is ideal for skin that is prone to blemishes or an uneven complexion. The combination of deep cleansing, oxygen technology, and manual cleansing helps to clarify the complexion and prevent inflammation. Our individual assessment is always important here: in cases of very inflammatory acne or acne requiring medical treatment, we carefully coordinate the procedure with you.
6. Is oxygen treatment uncomfortable?
No, the treatment is very pleasant and refreshing. Customers report a tingling sensation of deep cleansing. The soft vibro massage acts as a gentle tissue stimulation and feels like a relaxing, deep-cleansing beauty break.
7. What should be considered after an oxygen treatment?
After the oxygen treatment, the skin is immediately refreshed, revitalized, and nourished. We recommend leaving the active ingredients on the skin for as long as possible to maximize their effect. Immediately after the treatment, you should avoid intense heat, saunas, or strenuous exercise, as the skin is particularly activated after the treatment. As a preventive measure, we also recommend using sunscreen during the day to optimally protect your new, refined complexion.
8. Can I wear makeup immediately after the treatment?
Yes, you can usually wear makeup again immediately after treatment. Foundation can even be applied more evenly to the skin, leaving it looking smooth and even.
9. How often should I have an oxygen treatment, and do I need to take breaks?
How often you should have an oxygen treatment depends on your individual skin type and your wishes. For a quick boost of freshness, for example before a special occasion, a single application is sufficient. However, if you want a visible and lasting improvement in your skin condition, for example, if you have blemishes, a dull complexion, or dry skin, we recommend a course of 4-6 treatments at intervals of 2-4 weeks. We deliberately schedule short regeneration phases between appointments so that your skin can recover optimally and benefit from the active ingredients.
During a cosmetic microdermabrasion treatment, the topmost skin flakes are removed in a controlled manner with microfine ion crystals and simultaneously suctioned off with a vacuum system.
- Tired skin in need of regeneration gets new energy
- Poorly perfused skin, smoker's skin is revitalised and immediately appears fresher
- Large-pored, scarred skin (after acne has healed) becomes more even.
- Wrinkles, loss of tone and elasticity are reduced
- Blemished skin, comedone acne, acne tarda becomes more uniform
- Superficial hyperpigmentation is lightened
- Hyperkeratosis and pores are refined
After an individual consultation, the skin is cleansed, exfoliated in two phases and optimally prepared. The skin is then exfoliated in a controlled manner with the help of the BABOR TECH Micro Peeler and ion crystals. The skin is now extremely receptive to active ingredients and the skin's own regeneration processes are also activated. This is the best prerequisite for intensive moisturisation with the appropriate active ingredient concentrates, a moisturising mask or an ultrasound application.
Yes, the intensity can be individually adjusted to your wishes. In a professional consultation, your specialist cosmetician will tell you which treatment programme suits the desired result and your skin. An individually tailored treatment plan will be put together for you.
No, the microdermabrasion treatment is not painful and does not need to be performed under anaesthetic.
As the skin is in a regeneration phase after this intensive peeling treatment, additional stimuli or an increase in blood circulation (e.g. through sport) should be avoided afterwards. During the complete treatment course and 2 - 3 weeks beyond, sun protection must be applied during the day.
Depending on the skin condition and treatment goal, the number of treatments for a course of treatment varies between 6 and 12 treatments, at intervals of 7 - 14 days. A single treatment to refresh the skin's appearance is also possible.
To achieve optimal treatment results in a microdermabrasion treatment, it is recommended to follow a specific care plan at home. Coordinated products with highly dosed active ingredients optimally care for the skin in the regeneration process. We will be happy to advise you!
