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 top layer of skin cells is gently removed with micro-fine ion crystals and simultaneously suctioned away with a vacuum system.
- Tired skin in need of regeneration is re-energized
- Skin with poor circulation and smoker's skin is revitalized and immediately looks fresher
- Large-pored, scarred skin (after acne has healed) becomes more even
- Wrinkles, loss of firmness, and elasticity are reduced
- Blemished skin, comedonal acne, and acne tarda become more even
- Superficial hyperpigmentation is lightened
- Excess dead skin cells and pores are refined
Following a personalized consultation, the skin is cleansed, exfoliated in two phases, and optimally prepared. Afterwards, the skin is gently exfoliated using the BABOR TECH Micro Peeler and ionic crystals. The skin is now highly receptive to active ingredients, and its natural regeneration processes are activated. This creates the ideal conditions for intense hydration with suitable active ingredient concentrates, a moisturizing mask, or an Ultra Sonic application.
Yes, the intensity can be customized to your individual preferences. During a professional consultation, your expert beautician will advise you on which treatment program best suits your desired results and skin type. An individually tailored treatment plan will then be created for you.
No, the Microdermabrasion treatment is not painful and does not require anesthesia.
Since the skin is in a regeneration phase after this intensive peeling treatment, additional irritations or increased blood circulation (e.g., from sports) should be avoided afterwards. Throughout the entire treatment course and for 2-3 weeks thereafter, sunscreen must be applied during the day.
Depending on your skin condition and treatment goals, a course of treatment typically involves 6 to 12 sessions, spaced 7 to 14 days apart. A single treatment is also possible to refresh the skin's appearance.
To achieve optimal treatment results during a Microdermabrasion course, it is recommended to follow a specific at-home skincare plan. Specially selected products with highly concentrated active ingredients provide optimal care for the skin during its regeneration process. We would be happy to advise you!
