Pro-Nox™ Pain and Anxiety Management System

Pro-Nox™ Pain and Anxiety Management System at Skin & Laser Dermatology Centers of Mclean and Woodbridge

Pro-Nox™ is a pain and anxiety management system, widely acclaimed for its efficacy and safety in various medical and cosmetic procedures.

Pro-Nox™ is often likened to “laughing gas” due to its ability to alleviate pain, stress, and discomfort, inducing a relaxed and euphoric state. It’s a 50/50 mix of Nitrous Oxide and Oxygen, administered through a patient-controlled inhalation system. This unique feature puts you in complete control of your pain management, enhancing both safety and comfort.

How Pro-Nox™ Works:

• Pro-Nox™ is inhaled using a demand valve that allows for self-administration. This ensures maximum safety, as you can control how much gas you inhale based on your pain or anxiety levels.
• The system includes interchangeable breathing circuits to prevent the spread of germs and viral bacteria. The additional PharmaMini filter provides up to 99.99% viral protection.
• Unlike general anesthesia, Pro-Nox™ doesn’t cause total sedation. You remain conscious and able to communicate, but with significantly reduced pain and anxiety.

Benefits and Effects:

• Within the first few breaths, patients typically experience a significant reduction in stress, procedure pain, and general discomfort.
• Pro-Nox™ creates a sense of well-being, often described as feeling “on Cloud Nine,” making it easier to undergo various treatments.
• The effects are temporary, and patients often describe feeling relaxed, happy, or giggly, similar to having a few cocktails.

Ideal Candidates and Side Effects:

• Originally developed for labor and delivery, Pro-Nox™ is safe and effective for almost anyone, including those who are anxious about treatments or uncomfortable with needles.
• Side effects are generally mild and can include a feeling of light-headedness or a deepening of the voice. Most patients simply feel relaxed and at ease.
