Two-step treatment process
This facial begins with professional dermablading: a trained esthetician gently removes dead surface cells and fine vellus hair to leave the skin smooth and receptive. After that preparatory step the CO2 Lift Pro gel mask is applied; the clinic-grade carboxy gel interacts at the skin surface to create the signature oxygenating response described by the treatment name.
Because the surface layer is cleared first, the carboxy gel makes more uniform contact with the skin. Clients typically notice immediate brightness and a smoother skin feel after the session; the service is designed to deliver visible radiance without the recovery time associated with more invasive procedures, making it suitable for those needing a quick, noticeable result.
What happens during application
Dermablading is performed with professional technique to remove vellus hair and superficial dead cells. This step reduces surface friction and allows topical treatments to sit closer to the skin, improving the evenness of the subsequent mask application. The esthetician's judgment during this step shapes how much exfoliation the skin receives based on individual skin condition and sensitivity.
The CO2 Lift Pro phase is a topical carboxy gel applied after dermablading. The gel’s action at the surface leads to a visible plumping and smoothing effect described by clients as luminous and soft. While outcomes depend on individual skin characteristics, the protocol is presented as a single-session refresh with no required downtime.
Who benefits and aftercare basics
This combination suits clients seeking immediate radiance and a very smooth complexion without recovery time—commuters and busy families in Brookline and nearby neighborhoods often choose it as a quick self-care option. Esspa Kozmetika schedules early morning and late evening appointments to accommodate people who travel on the T or buses into downtown Pittsburgh.
Aftercare focuses on gentle skin handling; estheticians provide personalized guidance. Clients may experience temporary increased surface sensitivity and are commonly advised to follow practitioner instructions, use gentle products, and protect skin from direct sun exposure. Because there is zero downtime, many people schedule this treatment before social plans or shopping on West Liberty Avenue.
