Hyperbaric chamber to enhance your postsurgical recovery
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at FacePlus Plastic Surgery Institute – Lubbock, TX
Chamber: 2.0 ATA semi hard-shell
Overview
At FacePlus Plastic Surgery Institute, we offer medical-grade HBOT in a 2.0 ATA semi hard-shell chamber to support healing after plastic surgery, optimize fat grafting take, and enhance overall results. Many clients also choose HBOT for anti-aging and wellness benefits.
Why Choose HBOT at FacePlus
• Purpose-built 2.0 ATA chamber for deep therapeutic dosing
• Protocols tailored for post-operative recovery and fat grafting
• Supervised by our surgical team for coordinated, safe care
• Comfortable, quiet sessions with continuous support
What Is HBOT?
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy involves breathing near-pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. At 2.0 ATA, oxygen dissolves into plasma and other body fluids at higher concentrations than at normal atmospheric pressure. This elevated tissue oxygenation can support the body’s natural repair processes and help manage post-operative swelling and discomfort.
Our Chamber
We operate a modern semi hard-shell chamber rated to 2.0 ATA with continuous monitoring. The design balances comfort and stability while delivering consistent therapeutic pressure for recovery-focused protocols.
How HBOT Can Support Your Results
Post-Surgical Recovery
• Supports oxygen delivery to healing tissues
• Helps manage swelling and bruising
• May reduce downtime and discomfort
Fat Grafting Support
• Promotes an oxygen-rich environment during early graft integration
• Complements meticulous surgical technique to encourage graft survival
• Protocols available pre- and post-procedure
Anti-Aging & Wellness
• Supports cellular energy production
• May help with skin quality and vitality
• Promotes overall recovery after aesthetic treatments
Note: Results vary by individual. HBOT is an adjunct to—not a replacement for—appropriate medical and surgical care.
Typical Session
• Duration: ~50–90 minutes in-chamber, plus brief pre-/post-checks
• Pressure: up to 2.0 ATA (as appropriate)

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after surgery can I start HBOT?
Timing is individualized and coordinated with your surgeon. Many patients begin within the first few days after surgery once cleared by the clinical team.
Can HBOT improve fat graft take?
HBOT creates a highly oxygenated environment that can support early graft nourishment while the body re-establishes circulation. Overall results still depend on surgical technique, graft handling, and individual biology.
Is HBOT covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for elective, recovery-focused HBOT is uncommon. We provide transparent pricing and package options for self-pay clients.
Is 2.0 ATA necessary?
2.0 ATA allows a therapeutic dose of dissolved oxygen while maintaining comfort for most clients. Pressure and duration are tailored to the indication and your tolerance.
