What is Mesotherapy?

Mesotherapy can refer to two distinct treatments: fat removal injections and facial rejuvenation injections. While these treatments serve different purposes, they share a common approach: a series of small injections. Mesotherapy involves injecting a solution in small amounts across a specific area, regardless of the solution’s purpose.

Mesotherapy for Facial Rejuvenation

Mesotherapy for facial rejuvenation involves a series of microinjections, often containing hyaluronic acid, which hydrates the skin rather than adding volume. These treatments can be applied to the face, neck, decolletage, and hands. Along with hyaluronic acid, mesotherapy solutions may include vitamins like C and D, amino acids, and antioxidants, which nourish the skin, stimulate collagen production, and protect against free radicals. This treatment is best suited for younger skin to prevent wrinkles and older skin with minimal damage, as it helps reduce fine lines, enhance moisture, and improve skin strength and elasticity.

Mesotherapy for Fat or Cellulite Removal

Mesotherapy treatments for fat and cellulite removal involve injecting a special solution into affected areas. For fat removal, deoxycholic acid is often used to break down fat cells, which then release lipids that the body eliminates, leading to a more contoured appearance. For cellulite removal, a cocktail of ingredients, including amino acids, may be injected to remove toxins and improve circulation, helping to reduce the irregular, orange-peel look of the skin.

• Contains deoxycholic acid, a fat-dissolving agent similar to a natural enzyme in the body.

• Contains amino acids and other ingredients specifically designed to treat cellulite.
• Appropriate for use on areas such as the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, knees, and arms.

The Mesotherapy Technique

It involves a series of injections, each depositing a small amount of solution within the skin. The depth and amount injected can vary depending on the product, but the injections are typically spaced evenly to cover a large area. This method ensures the product is distributed uniformly across the desired treatment area. 

Although the term mesotherapy can refer to both facial rejuvenation and fat or cellulite removal treatments, it essentially describes the technique of injecting small amounts to target specific areas. This approach allows the delivery of active ingredients directly to the affected skin, whether on the face or other parts of the body, providing targeted and effective treatment.
