About Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves injecting small amounts of various substances into the middle layer of the skin (mesoderm) to treat various conditions, including cosmetic concerns. The injected substances include vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other compounds that are believed to promote skin rejuvenation and improve the appearance of the skin.
The specific cocktail of substances used in mesotherapy can vary depending on the intended purpose of the treatment. Some practitioners use mesotherapy for facial rejuvenation to address issues like fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Others may use it for body contouring to target areas with excess fat or cellulite.
The treatment is administered using very fine needles and typically requires multiple sessions for optimal results. Each session is relatively quick, and patients can usually return to normal activities immediately following treatment.
