Mesotherapy is a cosmetic treatment intended primarily to rejuvenate and restore skin firmness and elasticity. It consists of the local administration of small doses of active substances by micro injections into the skin area being treated. These active substances (like vitamins, minerals and hyaluronic acid) have invigorating, moisturising and firming properties.
At body level it is used to remove localised areas of cellulite. In this case, the injected materials are lipolytic products. In the facial, neck and chest areas it is used to hydrate the skin as the substances used are revitalising and nourishing.
Body mesotherapy is mainly used in the treatment of cellulite and flaccidity. Substances used are lipolytic, antioxidants, etc. It involves the administration of small quantities of drugs by intradermal injections at several points in an area with cellulite. This technique sends a low dose of medication to resolve the pathology of the treated area.
Injected products are concentrated in homeopathic amounts (very small amounts). This reduces the risk of allergies and/or hypersensitivity.
The results are quick. The number of sessions varies according to the initial state of the treated area. The sessions are held weekly and it requires between 8 and 12 sessions. After obtaining the desired results, a maintenance session will be needed.
The effects of the sun on the skin lead to alterations in the structure and function of it. These changes induce a progressive dehydration of the skin, which depends largely on the content and distribution of the glycosaminoglycans.
With this treatment, we bring specific nourishing and revitalising elements to the deepest layers of the skin.
The latest and most current technique consists of the injection of a cocktail of vitamins, hyaluronic acid and oligoelements. This cocktail is injected in different parts of the face and neck, and provides deep hydration where the creams are not able to reach.
It is necessary to receive several sessions for good hydration. Combined with other treatments, the effects are enhanced. The results are quick and the number of sessions depend on the initial state of the skin.
We usually start by doing four sessions, one every 10-15 days, and then schedule maintenance sessions, with the regularity required by each case.
