How does C2O2 work?

The treatment works in two principal stages.

Phase One – Charcoal Milk

The Charcoal Milk stage provides controlled exfoliation and helps remove surface build-up and congestion.

Bamboo charcoal is incorporated into the treatment alongside hydrating ingredients including olive-derived squalane, creating a treatment that provides clarification without simply stripping the skin.

Phase Two – Oxygen Rx

Circadia Oxygen Rx generates oxygen directly on the surface of the skin during treatment. As the product activates, clients experience its characteristic effervescent, tingling sensation. This stage is designed to support circulation and leave the skin looking fresher, brighter and revitalised.

What happens during the C2O2 Facial?

Your appointment includes:

• Consultation and skin assessment
• Professional Circadia cleansing
• Preparation of the skin
• Charcoal Milk treatment
• Oxygen Rx treatment
• Targeted Circadia serums
• Hydration
• Moisturiser
• Broad-spectrum SPF
• Personalised homecare guidance

Additional elements may be incorporated according to your skin.

What does the facial feel like?

During the Oxygen Rx stage, warmth, tingling and bubbling sensations are expected as the treatment activates. Some clients describe this as unusual but enjoyable. Your skin will be monitored throughout the treatment.

Expected downtime

Most clients experience limited downtime, although the following temporary sensations can occur:

• Redness
• Warmth
• Tingling
• Mild dryness
• Sensitivity

If your skin is currently inflamed or experiencing a significant flare, another Circadia treatment may be recommended instead.

Aftercare following C2O2

• Avoid exfoliating products until advised
• Avoid retinol and strong active skincare initially
• Avoid excessive heat
• Avoid saunas and steam rooms
• Avoid strenuous exercise if the skin remains flushed
• Avoid picking the skin
• Keep the skin hydrated
• Apply SPF every day
• Avoid unnecessary sun exposure
• Follow Becca’s personalised homecare recommendations

Congestion and acne-prone skin often benefit from consistency rather than an occasional treatment.

For clients with ongoing concerns, Becca can create a programme combining:

• C2O2 treatments
• Bespoke Circadia Facials
• Professional Circadia exfoliation
• Appropriate chemical peel add-ons
• Circadia homecare

The objective is to support healthier-looking skin over time rather than repeatedly performing aggressive treatments.

Treatment frequency will depend on your skin and its response.

Results from professional treatments can be supported with suitable homecare.

For congestion-prone skin, Becca may recommend products selected to support:

• Effective cleansing
• Controlled exfoliation
• Oil balance
• Skin hydration
• Barrier support
• Daily SPF

A complicated routine is not necessary.

We will help you understand which Circadia products are genuinely relevant to your skin and how to use them correctly.
