What
is Mesotherapy?
MESOTHERAPY
is a breakthrough medical practice that allows patients
a non-invasive remedy to CELLULITE
and FATTY DEPOSITS.
The technique was invented in 1952 by Dr. Michel Pistor,
where medication is injected into the mesoderm, the layer
of fat and connective tissue.
How does Mesotherapy
work?
MESOTHERAPY
is the micro-injection of traditional medication, homeopathic
medication, pharmaceuticals and vitamins into the mesoderm,
or middle layer of skin. This acts as a "medicinal
Bullet" that is delivered directly to the target in
the body. Orally administered medication, on the other hand,
is distributed throughout the body. Mesotherapy allows a
much smaller dose of the same medicine to be injected directly
at the problem area, into the skin, with the skin acting
as an efficient time-release delivery system.
Mesotherapy
works by stimulating the body to Heal itself in those
targeted areas.
The medications that are used melt
the fat beneath the skin and shrink the fat cells in the
scarpa's fascia layer. The fat dissolves and is carried
through the bloodstream and excreted by kidneys and bowel.
Mesotherapy
for getting rid of cellulite
Mesotherapy can be used to eliminate
cellulite on the legs and buttocks, by repairing the connective
tissue, shrinking the fat cells and increasing circulation.
Mesotherapy can rid these areas of the 'orange peel"
like skin. This helps reveal a smoother and more even
toned appearance. The average patient generally requires
several weekly treatments in order to achieve this result.
Mesotherapy
for spot reduction
The same principles
that allow Mesotherapy to eliminate cellulite can be used
to rid other areas of the body of excess fat. Mesotherapy
unlike liposuction is a non-surgical procedure that does
not require hospital admission, general anesthesia, or
downtime.
What techniques are employed to deliver the medication
to the mesoderm layer?
Using a very tiny
needle the medication is injected into the mesoderm. Sometimes
the technique of "multi-pricking" is used, where
a number of swift, painless injections are concentrated
in a specific area.

How
much does mesotherapy cost?
