Top Questions about mesotherapy injection with answers

how long does mesotherapy injections last?

The results are long-lasting, up to 12-18 months, but they will eventually start to fade if you don't keep up with the treatments. Most people find that a top up treatment every 3-6 months helps to keep their skin rejuvenated and prolongs the results from their Mesotherapy.

what are the side effects of mesotherapy?

Because mesotherapy is administered directly to the desired area, it is believed that side effects are limited or reduced. Reported side effects of mesotherapy include:

  • Immediate or delayed allergic reaction to the injected drugs/solutions
  • Lecithin is known to cause inflammation and swelling
  • Skin infections
  • Pigmentation at the injection site
  • Bruising at the injection site
  • Ulceration, scarring and deformity
     at the injection site
  • Panniculitis.

Is mesotherapy better than microneedling?

Microneedling or mesotherapy, which is best for me?

When deciding between microneedling and mesotherapy, it really comes down to the results you’re looking to achieve.

  • For signs of ageing

Fine lines and wrinkles are the first obvious signs of ageing skin. While mesotherapy is beneficial for fine superficial wrinkles, microneedling is more effective for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles overall. This is because microneedling stimulates a healing response in the skin which produces collagen and elastin – essential in keeping skin looking smooth and plump.

  • For skin pigmentation issues

Skin pigmentation issues such as dark under eyes, or discolouration, is best treated with mesotherapy. This is because the cocktail injections contain all the key ingredients for long term healthy skin and help remove toxins from the skin cells to tackle pigmentation.

  • For skin texture issues

For scarring or rough, bumpy skin both mesotherapy AND microneedling are effective. Microneedling promotes cell regeneration and exfoliation on a deeper level. Mesotherapy, on the other hand, nourishes and hydrates the skin, maintaining its health and clarity. For optimal results, combine these two treatments.

who cannot have mesotherapy?

  • Pregnant women
  • people who had a stroke
  • diabetes patients
  • heart disease patients on multiple medications
  • cancer patients
  • people with blood clotting problems cannot have mesotherapy.

What is mesotherapy?

Using injections of vitamins, enzymes, hormones, and plant extracts, mesotherapy seeks to remove extra fat and rejuvenate and tighten skin.

Michel Pistor, a doctor in France, developed the technique in 1952. It was originally used to relieve pain. In the years since, it has gained popularity in the United States and other parts of the world.


uses of mesotherapy

Today, mesotherapy is used to:

  • remove fat in areas like the stomach, thighs, buttocks, hips, legs, arms, and face
  • reduce cellulite
  • fade wrinkles and lines
  • tighten loose skin
  • recontour the body
  • lighten pigmented skin
  • treat alopecia, a condition that causes hair loss

How mesotherapy technique is working?

The technique uses very fine needles to deliver a series of injections into the middle layer of skin. Aims to correct underlying issues like poor circulation and inflammation that cause skin damage.

 


How do you prepare?

  • You’ll meet with the doctor ahead of time to find out what to expect.
  • You might have to avoid aspirin (Bufferin) and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for one week before the procedure.
  • These pain relievers can increase your risk of bleeding and bruising during mesotherapy.

What happens during your appointment?

  • During each session, you may or may not have numbing medicine applied to your skin.
  • You’ll get a series of injections using a special short needle. The needle may be attached to a mechanical gun to deliver many injections in a row.
  • The injections can be given at different depths — from 1 to 4 millimeters into your skin — depending on what condition you’re having treated.
  • Your doctor may place the needle into your skin at an angle, or flick their wrist very quickly while injecting.
  • Each injection may only place a tiny drop of the solution into your skin.

You’ll probably need several mesotherapy sessions to get the desired effect. You should expect to return to the doctor between 3 to 15 times. At first, you’ll get the injections every 7 to 10 days. If your skin starts to improve, the treatments will be stretched out to once every two weeks or once a month.

 

How does it compare to liposuction?

Mesotherapy is considered a nonsurgical alternative to liposuction for removing unwanted fat.

Liposuction permanently removes fat from areas like your stomach, thighs, and back. Cosmetic surgeons perform this procedure by inserting a thin plastic tube through small incisions in your skin, and then suctioning out the fat using a surgical vacuum. Liposuction is done while you’re under anesthesia.

Although liposuction is considered effective at permanently removing fat, recovery can take up to six weeks. It also has risks. And liposuction is expensive.

Mesotherapy isn’t as invasive a procedure as liposuction. There are no incisions. The cost is much lower than liposuction. However, you may need 10 sessions or more to get the results you want.

Injection lipolysis is another noninvasive treatment that’s similar to mesotherapy. The terms “mesotherapy” and “injection lipolysis” are often used synonymously, though they’re slightly different.

During injection lipolysis, your doctor injects phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate into the fat layer under the skin to break up fat. As with mesotherapy, there is very little evidence to show injection lipolysis works.


 

What are the side effects and risks?

People who practice mesotherapy say the risks are minimal if you go to a trained practitioner.

Side effects that have been reported include:
  • nausea
  • pain
  • sensitivity
  • swelling
  • itching
  • redness
  • bruising
  • bumps at the injection site
  • dark patches of skin
  • rash
  • infection
  • scars

What is the recovery like?

Because mesotherapy is noninvasive, there usually isn’t any downtime. Many people are able to return to their regular activities right away. Others may need to take a day off due to swelling and pain at the injection sites.


Can mesotherapy be used for hair loss?

Mesotherapy not only treats wrinkles and removes unwanted fat, but it also treats hair loss due to alopecia. The treatment injects natural plant extracts, vitamins, or medicines like finasteride and minoxidil into the head.

People who perform mesotherapy for hair loss claim it:

  • corrects hormone imbalances in and around the hair follicle
  • delivers nutrients to the hair
  • improves blood circulation

Yet, just as with other uses of mesotherapy, there is little evidence that it works for hair loss. Studies have not demonstrated the ability of most injected substances to regrow hair. Only finasteride and minoxidil Trusted Source have any evidence to show they work.
