What Is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy is a non-invasive procedure that helps improve the health of the skin from within by using micron-sized injections of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hyaluronic acid. This procedure originated in France where its primary application was the alleviation of pain but eventually turned out to be a cosmetic procedure. Mesotherapy consists of administering vitamin, antioxidant, and hyaluronic acid cocktails into the skin mesoderm.
How does Mesotherapy treatment work?
Mesotherapy is an approach that revolves around delivering ingredients. No matter whether the process involves injection, needling, or a non-invasive technique, the idea is to deliver particular active ingredients such as peptides, hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and amino acids into the skin.
In the process, a small amount of the cocktail is injected under the skin. The process takes between 20-40 minutes, and anesthesia is rarely necessary.
Face Applications
In case of mesotherapy for the face, the procedure is focused on dry, dehydrated skin, lack of shine and glow, fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven complexion.
In case of mesolifting, i.e., using mesotherapy for the face, the procedure will help to add moisture to the skin, which may be lost. Moreover, mesolifting increases the production of natural skin ingredients such as elastin and collagen, leading to a regenerating effect. Brightness and healthy glow may become noticeable as a result of the treatment.
There is also a method of combining mesotherapy with microneedling, since microneedling provides micro channels to allow ingredients penetration deeper, and, hence, it makes microneedling an excellent way to start mesotherapy with using meso-booster ampoules.
How Many Sessions?
For facial concerns, 6–8 mesotherapy sessions at intervals of 2 weeks each are recommended. Hair mesotherapy typically requires 6–10 sessions followed by 2 yearly maintenance treatments. For body contouring, diet and exercise greatly enhance and prolong results.
Who Should Avoid Mesotherapy and Essential Aftercare Tips
Who Should Avoid Mesotherapy?
There are some people who will find mesotherapy unsuitable for them. Women who are pregnant or nursing are not supposed to undergo mesotherapy treatment because of the risks involved. Also, those people suffering from heart or kidney conditions, as well as patients suffering from active acne and rosacea, should steer clear from this procedure. Patients that tend to form keloid scars should also be careful while considering this procedure.
Mesotherapy Aftercare Tips
Mesotherapy is an aesthetic therapy that is minimally invasive and is aimed at improving the health of skin, hydration levels and rejuvenation. Though the process of treatment is quick, the importance of after care in attaining desirable results cannot be overlooked. This means that you should consider following certain measures after the treatment for optimal outcomes.
- Avoid applying makeup immediately after the procedure.
- Wash your face gently with lukewarm water and a mild cleanser.
- Do not rub or scrub the treated area.
- Avoid saunas, steam rooms, swimming, and strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours.
- Stay away from direct sunlight, sunbeds, and fake tanning for 10 days.
- Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30–50 daily to protect the skin.
