Is Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy Painful?

Not at all. Hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy is noninvasive and completely painless. You’ll simply relax while sitting inside the pressurized chamber while breathing in pure oxygen. Some people notice a mild popping or fullness in their ears, like what you feel during takeoff or landing on an airplane, but that sensation usually fades quickly.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

For faster recovery after a procedure or specific event, patients can benefit from anywhere from 3 to 10 sessions inside our chamber. But if you’re using HBOT for more long-term wellness or skin rejuvenation effects, you may need a longer series spaced out over a few weeks. Dr. Li and the team at CA Aesthetics, serving the San Jose and Bay Area, will guide you through a customized plan during your consultation.

How Long Until I See the Results?

Many of our San Jose and Bay Area patients notice increased energy or reduced swelling within the first few sessions of their hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy. More dramatic results will continue to build gradually over time.

Can I Combine Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy with Other Procedures?

Our hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy is compatible with both surgical and non-surgical treatments by speeding up healing and reducing inflammation. Many of our CA Aesthetics patients choose to pair it with procedures like Carboxygel treatments, microneedling , PRP , or some IV infusions for an extra boost.

What Are the Risks Associated with a Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy?

Side effects that we’ve seen with hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy are rare but can include mild ear pressure, sinus discomfort, or temporary fatigue. Our team at CA Aesthetics will closely monitor every session to make sure our patients are comfortable and safe. For more information or to schedule a consultation, call (408) 883-7943 .

What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy?

Hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy involves spending time inside a special chamber where the air pressure is increased to higher-than-normal levels while breathing nearly 100% oxygen. Our chamber reaches 2.0 ATA, which means it reaches twice the atmospheric pressure exerted at sea level. This increased pressure allows for greater absorption of oxygen into your bloodstream and tissues, much more than breathing regular air at normal pressures.

This increased oxygen supply to your tissues helps speed up tissue healing, repair damaged cells, reduce swelling, and fight infection. The process is entirely non-invasive and painless, and sessions last anywhere between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on your treatment plan.

What Are the Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy?

Hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy offers our San Jose and Bay Area clients a wide range of benefits that appeal to many types of patients.

It can speed up healing of surgical wounds, reduce inflammation and pain, and help promote tissue regeneration. Nearly all patients recovering from major reconstructive and aesthetic surgery can benefit from increased oxygenation to improve and shorten their recovery process.

It also supports improved circulation, boosts the immune system, and can help with conditions like chronic fatigue, migraines, and even some skin disorders.

Who Are the Best Candidates for Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy?

This therapy is ideal for healthy adults in the San Jose and Bay Area who want to feel better, recover faster, or simply stay on top of their wellness game. It’s especially popular among those who are:

Recovering from surgical procedures (cosmetic or reconstructive)
Recovering from fat transfer procedures
Have tissues with compromised circulation after surgery
Recovering from fatigue and inflammation after sports or intense athletic performance
Dealing with fatigue or low energy
Interested in skin or body rejuvenation
Managing low-level chronic conditions like brain fog

Of course, it’s not for everyone. That’s why your provider at CA Aesthetics will take a detailed look at your health history before you begin. Safety first, always.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber First Step

What’s the first step?

You’ll start hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy by scheduling a consultation with one of our CA Aesthetics providers.

During this visit, you’ll have the chance to share your health history, discuss your goals, and ask any questions you might have about the therapy. Your provider will also make sure to carefully evaluate your needs and determine if hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy is a good fit for you.

From there, they’ll develop a personalized plan outlining the number of sessions recommended, what to expect during each visit, and how to prepare for treatment. Treatment protocols can sometimes start before surgery to get an early start on saturating your tissues with oxygen.

To schedule a consultation, call (408) 883-7943 or visit our contact form.

What to Expect from Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy

Unlike conventional chambers, in which you’ll have to lie down in a small tube, our modern chamber allows you to sit inside comfortably in a chair, avoiding the claustrophobic effect of a small restrictive space. While inside the chamber a mask will be placed on you, and you will breathe normally while the atmospheric pressure is slowly increased. There’s no pain, no pokes, and no weird feelings, though you might feel a little ear pressure.

After your session, the chamber is slowly depressurized, and once the treatment is complete, you’re free to carry on with your day without restrictions.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber Therapy Recovery

There really isn’t any recovery needed, specific to HBOT. After your session, you can return to your daily activities right away, unless you have separate restrictions from your surgery per se. Some people notice immediate improvements in energy and reduced discomfort, while others see gradual benefits over a series of treatments.

Your CA Aesthetics provider will advise you on how many sessions are optimal and help monitor your progress.
