How does Mesotherapy work?
Mesotherapy is a non-invasive technique based on superficial micro-injections, just below the epidermis, into the target tissues. The term ‘mesotherapy’ is derived from ‘mesoderm’ which means middle layer of the skin (approx. 1 mm deep). The solution injected can contain a wide range of minerals, vitamins (A, B, C, E, K), amino acids, hyaluronic acid and co-enzymes that can be tailored to patient’s individual needs.
Expected results
Best results are achieved after a series of 3-6 treatments repeated at 2-4 week intervals.
However, the desired effects are already observed after the first treatment.
The schedule of treatment sessions is adjusted to individual needs.
Post treatment recommendations
- For two weeks after the treatment, the patient should avoid strong sun exposure as well as heat exposure (sauna).
- Using a good sunscreen is strongly recommended to avoid skin discolouration.
Side effects
This treatment is safe.
Directly after the procedure, there might be some redness or mild swelling at the place of injection. Some bruising might also occur but all the above symptoms disappear within hours or days after the treatment.
