Mesotherapy
Frequent Asked Questions - Page 1
- What is Mesotherapy?
- Mesotherapy is a non-invasive procedure in which medication is micro-injected into targeted areas to treat excess fat and cellulite, reduce fine lines, regrow hair and rejuvenate the face. Mesotherapy's medical uses include treatment for anxiety, insomnia, bone spurs, muscle spasms, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, reflex sympathetic dystrophy and osteoarthritis.
- How does the treatment work?
- Mesotherapy can deliver a host of medications directly into areas of concern.When tailored to weight loss, injectables oxidize fat, shrink cells, weaken connective tissue and increase cell production. Fat released into the body is metabolized in exercise or excreted. Mesotherapy sessions are used alongside exercise and diet regimens rather than as an alternative to them.
- What are the results?
-
Mesotherapy is a permanent solution that eliminates dimpling and extra fat under the skin. After Mesotherapy, a patient's skin appears significantly smoother. Most patients lose anywhere from two to four inches where their cellulite was treated. On specific targeted areas, some patients can lose up to six inches.
- How many treatments are required?
- Mesotherapy requires a series of treatments for larger areas. The number of sessions is determined by the results you desire.
- Is Mesotherapy safe?
-
Mesotherapy has no serious side effects. All injected substances such as vitamins, antioxidants, phosphatidycholine or hyaluronic acid are FDA approved.
- Are there any possible side effects?
-
You may experience tenderness, swelling or redness for a few days after your session. In some cases, a nodule will develop and recede on its own over the next couple of months. Rare allergic reactions to injectables may occur.
