Oxygen for life Oxygen is the elixir of life. Without oxygen there is no metabolism or energy production for skin cells and body cells. A depletion of oxygen results in deterioration of skin tone, wrinkles and premature aging. The Bode OXYjet system is a high-tech oxygen delivery process for bringing about beauty and wellness in its purest form. Nora Bode is at the forefront of development in delivering the benefits of beauty, health and radiance that oxygen offers
Replenishing the oxygen that healthy skin needs
Bode OXYjet uses an oxygen pressure applicator to "inject" pure oxygen and special Nora Bode cosmetic formations into the deep layers of the epidermis - without needles! The epidermis is where cell division, allergic reactions and skin colouring melanin processes occur. To grow healthy new skin and supply nutrients such as glucose, amino acids and fatty acids that feed the skin, the epidermis needs oxygen. If there's no oxygen, the skin can not function properly.
The oxygen pressure injection gives new life to tired cells. In young skin, there's plenty of oxygen and nutrients coursing through the blood vessels in the dermis. This keeps the skin healthy, elastic, vital and young looking. Older skin is different: the micro capillaries of the dermis have degenerated and are no longer able to supply sufficient oxygen and nutrients to the germinative layer of the epidermis So cell division slows down, the skin thins, dries and wrinkles. Age spots appear and the melanin no longer achieves even distribution. Tone decreases while lines and pigmentation increase. Bode OXYjet simply uses oxygen as a natural medium to replenish nutrients that the
Four OXYjet Applications OXYjet Treatment
Using pulsed oxygen under pressure, special cosmetic formulations and pureoxygen are "injected" into the deep layers of the epidermis where they form a deposit of active ingredients.
The oxygen pressure of the OXYjet treatment guarantees immediate and long lasting results.
OXYspray Treatment
The skin benefits from OXYspray treatment after aggressive peels, cosmetic operations, sunburn, inflammation or severe acne and other skin problems. A gentle spray of oxygen and cosmetic formulations with specific active ingredients stimulates the immune system of the skin, accelerates wound healing, reduces irritations and fades lesions.
OXYaroma Treatment
For toning and energising of the whole body, OXYaroma inhalation can be enjoyed after skin
treatments. Inhaling pure oxygen, scented with a relaxing or energising aroma oil of choice, provides cells with the elixir of life and contributes to the treatment as a wellness experience.
OXYcrystal Microdermabrasion
Delivery of an even, fine and controlled stream of aluminum oxide (Corundum) micro crystals over the skin through a ergonomic hand piece. Treating premature aging, skin irritation and congested skin problems by removing dead skin cells, oils and other impurities that build up on the skin surface.
Oxygen as a basis for cell regeneration!
The cells of the epidermis are most active in the deeper layers of the germinative basal lamina. It is here that cell division and growth of surface skin takes place, as well as important immunological processes, and the formation of skin colouring melanin within the melanocytes. These deep epidermal cell layers require a large amount of energy to fulfil their function.
Cells derive energy from nutrients such as glucose, amino acids and fatty acids in three stages. Stages 1 and 2, in the absence of oxygen, produce only a small amount of ATP anaerobically. In stage 3, however, the reduction of oxygen forms an important component of ATP synthesis. ATP formed in the mitochondria of a cell is a cell's energy reservoir.
Young skin is fresh and vital, and does not suffer from a lack of energy, because the epidermis is adequately supplied with oxygen and nutrients through the blood vessels of the dermis. Older skin, on the other hand, is poorly supplied with blood because the micro-capillaries of the dermis have degenerated and are no longer able to supply sufficient oxygen and nutrients to the germinative layer of the epidermis. As a result, cell division slows down significantly, and the skin becomes thinner, dry and wrinkled. Age spots appear because the melanocytes no longer have sufficient energy to distribute melanin evenly. The lack of oxygen and nutrients in the germinative layer of mature skin is a decisive cause for its decreasing tone, the formation of lines, and uneven skin pigmentation.
Our genetic make-up, for the most part, determines the composition of our skin (what colour it is, whether it ages early or late, is prone to acne problems or whether it is evenly pigmented or not) However, environmental influences and our lifestyle also play an important part. With Nora Bode cosmetic formulations and the OXYjet system, it is no longer necessary to resign oneself to unpleasant changes to one's skin. Nutrients in the form of special active ingredients and oxygen are supplied to the basal layer of the epidermis via pressure pulse so that cells can produce energy for division and growth, and for normal functioning of the melanocytes. The result is smooth, wrinkle-free, youthful and blemish-free skin! Mitochondria "the cell's power source". Without oxygen the formation of the energy reservoir ATP is not possible.
