Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: The Secret to Faster Plastic Surgery Recovery and Better Results

When you invest in plastic surgery—whether it’s a facelift, tummy tuck, breast augmentation, or liposuction—you’re not just investing in a procedure. You’re investing in confidence, beauty, and long-lasting results. But the truth is, recovery plays just as big a role in your final outcome as the surgery itself.

At Auburn Total Health, we partner with patients and surgeons across Sacramento, Roseville, Granite Bay, and Folsom to help make recovery smoother, faster, and more effective through Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).


What is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment where you relax in a pressurized chamber and breathe 100% oxygen. This process supercharges your body with oxygen—allowing it to absorb 10-15 times more oxygen than normal breathing.

Why does this matter after surgery? Because oxygen = healing. Your body needs oxygen to repair tissue, fight infection, and reduce inflammation. After plastic surgery, those needs skyrocket.


How Hyperbaric Therapy Accelerates Healing After Surgery

Plastic surgery places significant demands on your body. Swelling, bruising, and tissue trauma are part of the process—but they can be minimized. Here’s what HBOT can do:

Reduce Swelling and Bruising

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy decreases post-operative inflammation and speeds up the removal of excess fluids, meaning less swelling and faster comfort.

Boost Collagen Production

Collagen is essential for skin tightening and scar healing. Increased oxygen means better collagen synthesis, which leads to smoother results and minimized scarring.

Prevent Infection

Oxygen-rich environments inhibit harmful bacteria and strengthen your immune system, reducing infection risks and complications.

Protect Your Investment

You didn’t invest thousands of dollars in a procedure to settle for anything less than optimal results. HBOT ensures your results look their best—and last longer.


When Should You Schedule Hyperbaric Treatments?

Best Practice:

  • Before Surgery – 1–2 sessions before your procedure can prepare your body for healing, boost immune function, and oxygenate tissues.

  • Immediately After Surgery – Starting HBOT within the first 24–48 hours can dramatically reduce swelling and accelerate the initial recovery phase.

  • Post-Op Maintenance – A series of sessions (commonly 5–10) ensures healing and minimizes complications.
