Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Gainesville, FL
At North Florida Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, we now offer Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), a relaxing, non-invasive treatment designed to help your body heal from the inside out. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, preparing for a procedure, or simply looking to boost your overall wellness, our soft-shell pressurized hyperbaric chamber helps optimize your body’s natural repair process.
What Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?
A hyperbaric chamber is a comfortable, pressurized environment that delivers concentrated oxygen to the body at higher-than-normal atmospheric pressure.
This allows oxygen to dissolve more effectively into your bloodstream, reaching deeper into tissues than red blood cells alone can, helping your body repair, recover, and rejuvenate faster.
How It Works
During each session, you’ll sit or lie down comfortably inside the chamber as it gently pressurizes.
Under these conditions, oxygen dissolves directly into your plasma, increasing oxygen delivery to tissues throughout your body. This improved oxygenation helps:
- Stimulate tissue repair and collagen growth
- Reduce inflammation and swelling
- Support immune and cellular function
- Promote healthy circulation and recovery
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is often used to enhance post-operative healing, reduce downtime, and support natural wellness, making it an ideal complement to both surgical and nonsurgical aesthetic treatments.
Your Treatment Experience
Each hyperbaric oxygen session lasts about 40 minutes, allowing you to sit or lie down comfortably inside the soft-shell chamber while it gently pressurizes. Most patients describe the experience as calm and restorative, similar to meditation or a quiet flight. Our team monitors you closely throughout your session to ensure your comfort and safety.
Treatment Frequency
The number of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) sessions recommended will depend on your individual needs and goals.
- For surgical recovery or acute concerns, sessions are typically performed daily for about a week to maximize healing.
- For long-term wellness or chronic conditions, most patients schedule 2–3 sessions per week for several weeks.
- For ongoing maintenance or general wellness, 1–2 sessions per week or as needed may help sustain benefits.
Your provider will tailor a personalized treatment plan and adjust frequency as your body heals and responds.
Hyperbaric therapy is completely non-invasive, requires no downtime, and can be seamlessly integrated into your post-surgical recovery or overall wellness routine.
