Mesotherapy is a technique that uses very fine needels to deliver a series of injections just under the surface of your skin – the mesoderm.
A customised cocktail of vitamins, enzymes and hormones are injected in order to:
The idea behind mesotherapy is that it corrects underlying issues like poor circulation and inflammation that cause skin damage.
There are no standard formulas for the substances injected in mesotherapy. Practitioners use many different solutions, including:
How much does mesotherapy cost?
The cost of mesotherapy depends on the type of treatment you’re getting and the number of sessions you may require.
Do I need to prepare for treatment?
You may need to avoid aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDS) for one week prior to your treatment. These pain relievers can increase your risk of bleeding and bruising during treatment.
What happens during treatment?
During your session you may or may not require numbing cream applied to your skin. Mesotherapy may also be delivered via a mechanical gun that can deliver multiple injections at one time.
Injections can be delivered at different depths depending on the condition you are treating.
The needle may be placed at an 45 degree angle to your skin and flicked – a technique known as nappage. This injections are superficial normally at a depth of only 2mm and constant pressure is applied to the syringe.
How effective is mesotherapy?
As so many different techniques and ingredients are used it is hard to say how effective mesotherapy is, only a few small studies have been done to test the technique.
Does mesotherapy work in removing unwanted fat?
Mesotherapy is considered a nonsurgical alternative to liposuction for removing unwanted fat.
It’s not clear how well mesotherapy works to remove fat. There hasn’t been enough research done to test it, and the methods that are used differ depending on where you have it done.
Injection lipolysis is another non-invasive alternative that’s similar to mesotherapy.
People who practice mesotherapy say the risks are minimal if you go to a trained practitioner.
Side effects that have been reported include:
Because mesotherapy is noninvasive, there usually isn’t any downtime. Many people are able to return to their regular activities right away. Others may need to take a day off due to swelling and pain at the injection sites.
