Excerpt from: The Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, March 2008, Volume 7, Issue 3
A histological study on patients treated with CO2 injections for adiposity (Excessive fat in the body) showed that the treatment did not lead to any damage affecting the connective tissue, vascular bed, or nerve structures. The recent use of CO2 in angiographic procedures has proven the safety of this cheap and nonallergenic gas. Carbon dioxide does not provoke embolism even with bolus injections of 100ml, and a continuous flux of 20 to 30ml/ second does not induce adverse reactions. Local or systemic complications have not been reported in th eliterature. The only side effects are pain, hematomas cuased by the puncture, and crepitation sensation caused by the small local subcutaneous emphysema, which disappears within 30 minutes. Carbob dioxide injections are contraindicated for phlebitis, cardiac/respiratory insufficiency, renal/hepatic insufficiency, severe arterial hypertension and pregnancy.

Flow is in the range 20~40 cc/min - Each injection point receives 10 cc. The total number of session should be in the range [10~20] with 1 or 2 sessions a week.
Il faut toujours user de précaution pour déplacer les bouteilles et les contenants. Une fausse manoeuvre pourrait endommager un robinet ou faire éclater la bouteille et exposer le personnel aux dangers inhérents aux gaz qu.elle contient. De plus, la plupart des bouteilles de gaz sont lourdes et volumineuses. Les blessures les plus courantes sont les doigts et les orteils coincés ou écrasés. Par conséquent, les personnes devant manipuler des bouteilles doivent toujours porter l.équipement de protection individuelle prescrit par l.OSHA :

Here is an optimized technique to reduce the number of injections when you treat the eyes. It requires an injection far from the area to treat (at least 4 or 5 cm). The time to inject is longuer than the multiple puncture puncture technique as you must let the gas diffuse to the lids. The technique is not painful, you may make it confortable by pulling the skin in the ear's direction.
