Your comfort matters. Pro-Nox is a self-administered blend of oxygen and nitrous oxide that helps ease anxiety and discomfort during treatments. It wears off quickly, so you’re back to your day with no lingering effects. At Dermalogic, we offer this to make even the most sensitive procedures feel more manageable.
Pro-Nox can be appropriate for virtually any treatment requiring pain and/or anxiety relief at Dermalogic Laser Center.Tho we find it is most commonly used for energy- based devices. In particular, patients tend to use it for fractional laser skin resurfacing, CO2 Resurfacing and Plasma Pen sessions. Certain treatments may still require the use of a local anesthetic, such as lidocaine, but Pro-Nox can complement this strategy.
Breathing the mix of nitrous oxide and oxygen causes effects that last for several minutes. This duration can be extended by breathing more of the mixture through the mouthpiece as desired.
As a pain-management system, this patient-controlled system has been used for years in a wide range of medical settings, including labor and delivery, orthopedics, urology, and a variety of surgery centers. Studies have found that Pro-Nox is not only non-addictive, but can help patients by decreasing their need for alternative pain-medication strategies, such as pills.
Possible side effects are minimal and short-lived. Some patients experience dizziness, light-headedness, nausea, and unsteadiness on their feet, though these effects tend to resolve quickly. After about 5 to 10 minutes, there are no traces of the nitrous left in the body. Ready to learn more about Pro-Nox? Contact Dermalogic in Hammonton, New Jersey, for a consultation.
