The Problem
Dr. Samuel Salcedo’s presentation on the clinical implementation of CO2 Lift Pro is a clear visual of how Carboxytherapy is changing the world of post surgical care.
He details how he integrates it into procedures like blepharoplasty, tummy tucks, and mastopexies to significantly reduce bruising and swelling while providing patients with a soothing, ‘luxury experience’.
The cinematic also highlights his incredible ‘rescue cases’ where the product successfully resolved tissue necrosis and salvaged nipple tissue, avoiding the need for surgical debridement.
He even discusses how it can serve as a highly effective, time-saving alternative to hyperbaric oxygen therapy!
CO2Lift Pro Episode 1
“Why CO2 is your skin’s most underrated ally”
The opening episode of our science series. It sets up the single mechanism the whole portfolio rests on — the Bohr effect— and reframes how we talk about CO2Lift®️ Pro.
The core idea
Aesthetic medicine sells oxygen. But topical oxygen barely crosses the skin. CO2 does the opposite — it is small, diffusible, and raising local CO2 pushes more oxygen out of the blood and into the tissue. The molecule we dismiss as waste is the one driving the effect.
What the episode walks through
• The Bohr effect, explained simply — why CO2 makes hemoglobin release its oxygen
• Sakai 2011 — the human study that proved this happens through the skin (a mechanism study on a different CO2 product, industry-funded — it proves the science, not CO2Lift)
• What CO2Lift®️ Pro is — the patented two-part gel that generates CO2 gas on demand
• The downstream cascade — microcirculation, new vessel signaling, fibroblast activation
• CO2Lift®️ Pro-specific data: +28% microcirculation (single-arm, n=10), +117% hydration, ~26% elasticity at Week 4
• Where it fits — not a competing device, but the environmental layer underneath laser, RF, microneedling, and surgery
The line that defines the episode
Injectable carboxytherapy and CO2Lift®️ Pro share the same mechanism — the Bohr effect. The difference is delivery, and the gel is the stronger delivery of it. Even full-surface coverage instead of injection points. None of the bruising, pain, or crepitus the needle causes. The same result in any trained hands. Reach where needles can’t go — the lash line, fresh post-procedure skin, and the patient’s own home.
Same proven mechanism, delivered better. The needle was never the point. The CO2 was.
Where in your own treatment menu would even, needle-free CO2 delivery add the most — post-procedure recovery, delicate zones, or take-home continuity?
The Bohr Effect
This video explains the ‘Bohr effect’- how the product uses increased CO2 levels to force hemoglobin to release targeted oxygen directly into the tissue.
It also covers Dr. Alfredo Hoyo’s impressive research data, including a contralateral study showing statistically significant reductions in edema and chemosis compared to Vaseline.
Plus, it touches on clinical results showing a 117% increase in skin quality, neovascularization, and its use in flap salvage and high-definition body contouring.

More to come. Stay Tuned!!! Exciting stuff to avoid problems and improve outcomes. CO2Lift Pro Episode 2 is coming soon.
