Effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Bruising in Face-lifts

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has been used for wound healing for many years. It dramatically increases the ability of your blood to upload, carry, and deliver oxygen to tissues throughout your entire body.

The mechanism by which oxygen acts on wound beds is multi-factorial, but includes improved oxygen delivery to relatively hypoxic and avascular tissue and increases free radical scavengers to prevent and reduce oxidative stress and tissue injury. The final common pathway for wounds treated with HBO therapy is improved and results in an accelerated wound healing.
