Mesotherapy is a method for rapid hydration, restoration and improvement of skin elasticity and for prevention of fine lines and wrinkles. This technique entails repeatedly injecting a biologically active substance in the dermis. The procedure has a local and systemic effect on microcirculation, lymphatic flow and the immune system, and induces a biological response on a cellular level, thereby normalising cellular processes. Injections in the skin introduce essential ingredients into the body, such as vitamins, minerals, microelements, hyaluronic acid, collagen or combinations of active substances (mesotherapy cocktail). Aesthetic mesotherapy is suitable for skin hydration, nourishment and rejuvenation; it is also used to treat hair loss, seborrhea, cellulite and stretch marks.
More information
In recent years, patient demand for aesthetic mesotherapy has markedly increased, and the treatment has improved technologically, making it more effective and easier to perform. Depending on the area of application, mesotherapy cocktails containing different active ingredients are injected into the skin to help achieve a lasting solution to the problem.
This method was developed by French doctor Michel Pistor in 1952, who used it to treat injuries and rheumatological diseases. It is essentially a series of micro-injections into the skin. The pricks are made to an equal depth of 1 to 10 mm depending on the treatment’s purpose. A special mesogun is used to inject directly in the problematic area, which enables the use of all manual mesotherapeutic techniques. This means the dose and depth of insertion of the active ingredients can be measured extremely accurately. The various types of mesotherapy cocktails resolve different skin problems & stimulation of cellular regeneration, texture enhancement, tightening, smoothing of fine lines, anti-cellulite effect and overall prevention of the ageing process.

Administration
Mesotherapy delivers essential substances to the skin that stimulate its natural processes. No special preparations are necessary before the procedure. Clean skin is all that is required. The treatment areas are determined in advance at the dermatological examination. Anaesthesia is administered prior to the injectable procedure to ensure even patients with a low pain threshold are comfortable. A carefully measured amount of active ingredients or mesotherapy cocktails are injected during the procedure.
