Mesotherapy is a non-surgical procedure used to smooth and contour the body by treating cellulite and fat. In addition, mesotherapy is sometimes used for scar revision and as a hair loss and wrinkle treatment.
Mesotherapy Indications
For men and women ages 18-75 who wish to smooth cellulite on their body or reduce inches around their arms, back, abdomen, waist, hips, thighs and buttocks without undergoing liposuction surgery, mesotherapy may be an option.
Mesotherapy is not safe for patients who are pregnant or diabetic and dependent on insulin. Patients with a history of cancer, blood clots, stroke or who are on several medications for heart disease are also not good candidates for mesotherapy.
Mesotherapy Treatment
Mesotherapy is a painless procedure that involves injecting a small amount of a customized mixture of conventional pharmaceutical or homeopathic medications, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes into the mesoderm – the 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 Recovery
After mesotherapy, you will need to maintain a diet and exercise regimen that will aid your body in dispelling the unwanted body fat targeted by your mesotherapy procedure.
When administered by an experienced, board-certified dermatologist, mesotherapy injections reduce stubborn deposits of body fat and smooth dimpling from cellulite in a variety of body areas with very few risks.
Multiple sessions are needed to see full mesotherapy results, however after about ten treatments, significant weight loss, skin smoothing and inch reduction can be achieved.
