Mesotherapy – More than just an interesting idea
Although pioneered in the earlier half of the 20th century the application of the compounds used in Mesotherapy were only recently being introduced to the pores via facial steaming. This method in itself was a relatively new procedure, being used for less than five years.
However in the years following this manner of application technology has allowed the application of Mesotherapy as a treatment to evolve into a sophisticated non invasive means of delivering treatment. It is because of this non-invasive status that certain members of the medical fraternity will argue that it is ineffective.
By its followers, Mesotherapy is an effective, non invasive method of treating injuries and helping cosmetically with procedures such as reducing cellulite, eliminating localised fat deposits and providing anti-aging benefits.
But what is Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a method of injecting the skin with microscopic quantities of compounds and agents ranging from natural extracts to pharmaceuticals and vitamins.
For which circumstances is Mesotherapy most suited
Mesotherapy is recommended for a broad selection of ailments and illnesses and on the cosmetic side of the spectrum it is recommended for various conditions ranging from wrinkles, stretch marks, scars, cellulite and acne. Mesotherapy can also be applied to reduce and contour fat.
Mesotherapy is neither invasive. The main cosmetic reasons for which Mesotherapy is used are:
Reduction or elimination of fat and cellulite – the formula used by your practitioner will improve circulation and break down damaged connective tissue, leaving the skins surface smoother. The non-invasive nature of the treatment means that Mesotherapy can be used almost anywhere on the body.
The anti aging procedure aims to rejuvenate the skin cells, and so encouraging the production of collagen and elastin.
The formulas for fat deposit reduction are formulated to prevent fat from being stored making it ideal for targeting areas like double chins and ‘love handles’.
How soon can I expect to see results and how often will I need to receive Mesotherapy treatment?
Based on what you are hoping to achieve and the severity of the condition being treated a weekly visit or as discussed with your practitioner. Your practitioner will also advise on what to do and what to avoid during your period of treatment.
Cosmetically, this will improve you morale and frame of mind and set you on your way towards changing any habits that may have encouraged the situation you are now rectifying.
