Does Mesotherapy Really Work?

Does Mesotherapy Really Work?

Mesotherapy is a treatment designed to enhance the skin and body shape in different ways. It may be recommended to patients experiencing difficulties with wrinkles, weight gain, skin disorders, scarring, and more.

But is mesotherapy effective?

Yes! And in this post, we’ll explore how and why mesotherapy works, what benefits it offers, and other essential information you need to know before your first session.

What is Mesotherapy?

Mesotherapy was created by French doctor Michel Pistor in 1952. While it was initially developed to relieve pain and treat vascular disorders, mesotherapy has gone on to become a popular cosmetic treatment targeting various skin issues.

Mesotherapy is performed using incredibly fine needles which inject a carefully formulated solution into the skin’s middle layer (the mesoderm). This targets underlying problems such as inflammation that damages the skin or weak circulation.

A number of solutions are used for mesotherapy treatments, and they may contain various ingredients. For example, your mesotherapy solution could be made with:

  • Enzymes
  • Herbal extracts
  • Vitamins
  • Minerals
  • Antibiotics
  • Plant extracts
  • Hormones

The professional performing the procedure will choose the solution based on your skin type, your skin issues, and other critical factors.

What Benefits Does Mesotherapy Offer?

Mesotherapy can improve a patient’s appearance in a number of ways. You may consider mesotherapy for making subtle enhancements to your skin, such as targeting dark patches on the face, or for bigger tasks like smoothing out fine lines or stimulating hair growth.

It’s crucial that you discuss your motivation to try mesotherapy, and the goals you want to achieve, with a trained professional before they perform your treatment.

Generally, mesotherapy can be an effective solution for:

  • Improving acne and acne scars.
  • Hydrating and rejuvenating skin.
  • Promoting healthier skin overall.
  • Reducing the visibility of wrinkles.
  • Brightening and nourishing skin that looks dull.
  • Treating hyperpigmentation.
  • Tightening sagging skin.
  • Improving the appearance of cellulite.
  • Reducing the visibility of stretch marks.
  • Improving the appearance of dark circles/bags under eyes.
  • Treating hair loss, such as alopecia.
  • Targeting localized body fat.

You’ll have an opportunity to discuss your reasons for trying mesotherapy, and what changes you want to see, during a consultation. Ask any questions you may have during this session to ensure you have all the information you need before you undergo your treatment.

What Can I Expect After My Mesotherapy Treatment?

Patients generally find that their skin looks healthier than ever when they finish their course of mesotherapy sessions. Wrinkles may be less visible, pockets of stubborn fat could become more streamlined, and skin tones should appear more even. The outcome varies based on the solution used, the areas treated, and more.

You’ll most likely require multiple mesotherapy treatments to achieve your desired results. The frequency of your sessions, and the number required, will be discussed during your first session. Some patients may need to visit a clinic for just a few treatments, while others could require more than a dozen.

Initially, injections will be administered once each week, though it could be 10 days or longer in some cases. However, intervals will become longer once your skin starts to look and feel better — you may undergo mesotherapy treatments on a monthly basis by that point.

Fortunately, mesotherapy is a noninvasive treatment and no downtime will be required for you to recover. That sets mesotherapy apart from invasive procedures that require long healing periods.

Does Mesotherapy Have Any Side Effects?

Mesotherapy can lead to side effects, just like any other type of cosmetic procedure involving injections. These include:

  • Pain
  • Swelling
  • Redness
  • Itching
  • Nausea
  • Dark areas of skin
  • Bruising
  • Bumps at injection sites
  • Scars
  • Infections

Trained professionals will discuss any side effects that you may be at risk of developing before your treatment — you should feel in safe hands and confident in the practitioner’s skills.

If any of the potential side effects concern you, ask the practitioner to elaborate on them in more detail. They will want to set you at ease and give you peace of mind before you receive your first injections.

Does Mesotherapy Cause Pain?

Mesotherapy is generally a pain-free procedure. Anesthetic cream will be applied to the target areas before you receive your injections to help minimize potential discomfort.

If you’re nervous about having an injection, or feel uncomfortable around needles in general, make the practitioner aware. They can talk you through your treatment and reassure you that you’re in good hands.

What Other Treatments Can Improve the Way My Skin Looks?

You may complement your mesotherapy with other treatments if you want to take a more comprehensive approach to tackling issues. These include:

  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP0
  • IV therapy(such as IV Glutathione treatment or Slim Boost)
  • Botox
  • Thread Lift
  • Facial treatments
  • Clear + Brilliant

This is a small selection of the options available at Astra Medicare. Our highly trained, experienced experts have helped countless patients achieve positive results from their treatment. Our mesotherapy is performed using the latest equipment in a relaxing, professional environment.

How Should I Prepare for My Mesotherapy Treatment?

Keep the following directions in mind to prepare for your mesotherapy treatment safely and correctly:

  • Avoid drinking alcohol within 24 hours of a session: this can thin the blood and heighten your risk of bruising.
  • Contact the clinic if you develop a blemish or rash in one or more target areas before your appointment.
  • Avoid medications designed to thin the blood or fight inflammation for at least two weeks ahead of your treatment. These include aspirin, advil, omega 3 oils, and similar products.
  • Inform your practitioner if you are, or believe you may be, pregnant. You will not be able to continue with your treatment if you’re carrying a baby or breastfeeding.
