Revitalizing Skin Through Oxygenation

Over time, skin can appear dull, dehydrated, or sluggish due to environmental exposure, stress, and natural aging. Some patients want visible refreshment without aggressive treatments, while others are looking to support healing after procedures.

At Restivo Plastic Surgery, CO2Lift in Hawaii is offered as a supportive, restorative option. As a female-led, boutique practice serving Hawaii, care is delivered in a calm, private environment at our Maui office, where treatments are selected to complement skin health rather than overwhelm it.

How CO2Lift Supports Skin Function

CO2Lift is a topical carboxytherapy mask that creates a carbon dioxide-rich environment on the skin’s surface. This process encourages increased oxygen delivery to the treated area, supporting circulation, hydration, and skin vitality.

Unlike treatments that exfoliate or stimulate turnover, CO2Lift focuses on improving the skin’s environment. This makes it well-suited for patients seeking gentle rejuvenation or enhanced recovery support.
