FAQS |
 |
What is Mesotherapy? |
| |
Mesotherapy is a painless
technique of injecting a small amount of a customized
mixture of conventional pharmaceutical or homeopathic
medications, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and
enzymes into the mesoderm - or middle layer of skin.
These very small doses of the substances are administered
using very tiny needles in specific areas depending
on the condition being treated. Mesotherapy is used
to treat a broad range of illnesses and pain conditions.
This minimally invasive approach has shown successful
results in many areas: sports injuries, hair regrowth,
alopecia, and cosmetic treatments. |
| |
|
|
On what areas of the body can Mesotherapy be used
as a cosmetic treatment? |
| |
Mesotherapy may be used for
cellulite, body fat reduction, body sculpturing
and weight loss, facial rejuvenation (mesolift),
and eye fat pads. All of these uses have shown good
results, but only after a number of treatments have
been performed |
| |
|
|
What can I expect after a Mesotherapy treatment? |
| |
The office procedure takes
less than 30 minutes per session and requires little
preparation or recovery time. No heavy bandage or
compression girdles are required. The majority of
patients experience minimal discomfort with mesotherapy.
Some patients may develop minimal local pain, a
minor burning sensation for a few hours, and temporary
bruising. Itching and soreness may be experienced
for a few days. Like any other injectable product,
an allergic reaction may occur in some people. The
procedure is performed in the office and takes minutes
to complete. |
| |
|
|
Is Mesotherapy different from liposuction? |
| |
Yes. Mesotherapy is
a non-surgical medical treatment. Mesotherapy removes
the fat from the fat cell, where liposuction removes
the entire fat cell. Liposuction is a surgical procedure
that requires anesthesia (local, regional, or general).
Mesotherapy does not require anesthesia nor recovery
time. However, mesotherapy is not a replacement
for liposuction. . |
| |
|
| |
Mesotherapy is applicable
for the reduction of small areas of unwanted fat
spots, cellulite and skin rejuvenation. Mesotherapy
is best suited for men and women who are not excessively
overweight but, instead, have certain problem areas
with stubborn fat that can no longer be reduced
by diet and exercise. These patients want liposuction
but are hesitant to undergo a surgical procedure.
The downside with mesotherapy is mainly that the
results are gradual when compared with the immediate
results that liposuction offers. |
| |
|
| |
Mesotherapy has shown excellent
results to smoothen and reduce uneven fat spots
that may persist after liposuction, thereby avoiding
the need for additional touch-up liposuction procedures.
Mesotherapy and liposuction are not competitive
procedures but, rather, they complement each other |
