O2 Dome Glass Facial
what are glass facials
CMC is proud to be the first clinic in the greater St. Albert and Edmonton region to offer the O2 Glass Facial. This revolutionary facial uses a one of a kind dome that generates a continuous flow of highly concentrated, 90% pure oxygen with anion, and can be combined with customizable LED therapy. This facial promotes healthy and glowing skin with many other benefits such as:
Improving fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production
Decreasing acne causing bacteria, c. acnes
Repairing and healing post treatment, (reduces downtime in half)
Reducing swelling and inflammation
Boosting immunity
Improving hyperpigmentation
how it works
The O2 generator turns natural air into pure oxygen and delivers up to 3 million anions, which improve respiration, cell activity, and overall skin and health wellbeing. The large dome-shaped mask distributes a flow of pure oxygen into a hyperbaric-like chamber. The O2 dome can also provide stimulating LED light therapy simultaneously.
why this treatment?
Oxygen is crucial for skin cell regeneration. The O2 Glass Facial moisturizes, revitalizes, tones, rebalances pH, and accelerates collagen production making it a great antiaging treatment. It also reduces reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is a primary source of skin aging.

Can I use my regular skincare routine before and after ?
Yes, but you may want to avoid the use of exfoliants or products with active ingredients for 3-5 days before and after to reduce the risk of irritation. Ingredients such as retinoids, AHA's (glycolic acid, lactic acid, malic acid), and BHA's (salicylic).

LED Therapy
LED (light-emitting diode) light therapy treats various skin conditions and concerns. Within the O2 Glass Facial, stand alone dome session, or facial upgrade we have the ability to customize your selection of LED. The device can be set to a single wavelength or alternate between multiple.
Green LED
Green LED light has a calming effect on the skin and has been proven to assist in reducing issues of skin discoloration. The wavelengths of the green LED light target melanocytes or melanin-producing cells in the bottom layer of the epidermis. By targeting melanocytes, excess melanin is blocked from traveling to the surface of the skin. This breaks up clusters of pigment and therefore reduces existing unwanted hyperpigmentation. It also stimulates nutrient uptake into the skin & improves laxity concerns.
Red LED
One of the most effective wavelengths, the Red LED light, is renowned for improving blood flow, stimulating the production of energy within cells, and stimulating collagen for improving the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles. Medical skin conditions such as Psoriasis, Rosacea and Eczema can benefit as well improvement of scars and wound healing.
Blue LED
Blue LED light has proven to use powerful antibacterial properties to kill acne-causing bacteria, c. acnes. Helping to successfully, a. Blue light has a variety of applicable uses. Blue light helps to treat active breakouts, prevent future breakouts, soothe inflammation, and stabilize oil glands by balancing the pH.
Yellow LED
People with sensitive skin will benefit from this Yellow LED light wavelength that has soothing and calming effects. If you are looking for a solution for skin conditions, such as UV radiation damage, Rosacea, or concerns of flushing, redness, and inflammation, yellow light therapy is the optimal choice.
