WHAT IS A GLO2FACIAL®?
The Glo2Facial® (formerly known as OxyGeneo™) is the ultimate "super facial" designed to deliver immediate, visible results for every skin type. Unlike traditional facials that primarily focus on surface-level cleansing, the Glo2Facial® works from the inside out.
By utilizing proprietary technology, this treatment triggers the body’s natural biological process to revitalize your complexion, leaving your skin brighter, firmer, and more hydrated.
Unlock your skin’s natural potential with OxyGeneo™ technology.
Using the power of the Bohr Effect, we boost oxygen levels internally to revitalize your complexion.
Combined with targeted ultrasound and lymphatic drainage, this treatment is designed to leave you glowing, de-puffed, and perfectly sculpted.
What is the Bohr Effect?
The Bohr Effect is the scientific cornerstone that makes the Glo2Facial® unique. While most facials simply apply serums topically, the Glo2Facial® leverages this physiological principle to force your skin to "breathe" from the inside out.
Here is a breakdown of how this process works in your skin:
Named after the Danish physiologist Christian Bohr, this phenomenon describes how oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the blood.
Under normal conditions, your red blood cells carry oxygen. However, when the concentration of Carbon Dioxide ($CO_2$) increases in a specific area of the body, hemoglobin becomes "unstable" and releases its oxygen to the surrounding tissues to balance the environment.
How Glo2Facial® Triggers the Bohr Effect
The Glo2Facial® process uses a specially formulated OxyPod and Primer Gel. When these two interact on the surface of your skin, they create a controlled, gentle chemical reaction that produces a high concentration of $CO_2$ bubbles.
- The CO₂ Micro-Bubble Phase: As the bubbles form on your skin, they create a $CO_2$-rich environment in the upper layers of the epidermis.
- The Physiological Response: Your body senses this increase in $CO_2$ and reacts by triggering the Bohr Effect. It automatically sends a surge of oxygen-rich blood to the area to "flush out" the $CO_2$ and restore oxygen levels.
- Internal Oxygenation: Because the oxygen is being delivered via your own circulatory system, it reaches the skin cells directly from within. This is vastly more effective than trying to apply topical oxygen, which struggles to penetrate the skin barrier.

Every skin is unique, and your facial should be too. At House of Aesthetics, we tailor your Glo2Facial® using specialized OxyPods and targeted nutrient-rich serums based on your specific skin concerns.

Why Choose Glo2Facial?
Choosing Glo2Facial means choosing a treatment that goes far beyond the surface. It is a science-backed, transformative experience that works with your body's natural biology to reveal your best skin.
1. Patented Oxfoliation™ Technology
Instead of harsh mechanical scrubbing, Glo2Facial uses a unique, non-invasive reaction to gently exfoliate the skin. This process performs three essential steps at once: it removes dead skin cells, deep cleanses the pores, and preps the skin to absorb active, nutrient-rich ingredients.
2. The Power of the Bohr Effect
This is the "secret sauce" of the Glo2Facial. While traditional facials only provide superficial hydration, Glo2Facial triggers the Bohr Effect. By creating a CO2-rich environment on the skin’s surface, it tricks the body into sending oxygen-rich blood to the area. This stimulates cellular-level renewal, allowing your skin to revitalize itself from the inside out.
3. The 3-in-1 "Glo" Transformation
Why settle for one treatment when you can have three?
- Oxfoliation™: For immediate texture refinement and glow.
- Lux Ultrasound: Sends active ingredients deep into the dermis for maximum absorption.
- Lymphatic Drainage Massage: Reduces puffiness, contours the face, and leaves you looking sculpted and refreshed.
