Better Body Balance

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Seoul — the body recovers first, then the skin

The body has to recover first before the skin can

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy — Better Body Balance at VOS Dermatology Clinic, Gangnam Seoul

Overview

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Seoul places you in a chamber at twice normal atmospheric pressure breathing 100% oxygen, so roughly twice the usual amount of oxygen dissolves into the blood and reaches damaged tissues and cells. Under pressure, oxygen molecules dissolve directly into the plasma without binding to red blood cells, reaching the capillaries and creating an environment where new vessels can form.

At VOS Dermatology in Gangnam it is used as whole-body recovery: after injection procedures it noticeably reduces downtime by helping bruising and swelling clear, and it is offered for lingering fatigue, slow recovery, easily irritated skin and poor circulation. Effects vary from person to person.

How it works

What Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy does in the skin

01What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy?

It is a current whole-body anti-aging therapy in which twice the amount of oxygen compared to normal reacts with the blood to repair damaged tissues and cells.

Does it help recovery after procedures or surgery?
Yes — activated blood circulation helps swelling and bruising recover, which is why the clinic recommends it after injection procedures to reduce downtime.
Are new blood vessels formed?
When pressure is raised, oxygen dissolves into the blood as molecules without binding to red blood cells, activating capillaries and cells and creating an environment in which new vessels can form.
Can I expect an anti-aging effect?
Telomeres — the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes — shorten with each cell division, which is closely linked to aging. The clinic explains that maintaining or lengthening telomere length slows aging and that continued hyperbaric oxygen therapy helps in that way. Individual results vary.
Who is it for?
According to the clinic: chronic fatigue, those who want bruising and swelling to clear quickly after cosmetic procedures, lowered immunity, numbness in the hands and feet from poor circulation, and skin care with aging.
