Mesotherapy is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that can be used to alleviate a wide range of dermatological problems. Mesotherapy for skin works by introducing minute quantities of vitamins, minerals, or hydration liquid into the skin.
What is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy is derived from two words: meso and therapy. The term "meso" refers to the mesoderm, the second layer of the skin, where the injectable is administered. When the needle penetrates the skin, it activates fibroblasts, stimulating them to produce collagen and elastin. Since fibroblasts often lack essential nutrients, the injected vitamins and minerals serve as a nourishing source. This boost in nutrition revitalises the fibroblasts, enabling them to enhance collagen and elastin production, which are essential for maintaining skin’s elasticity and youthfulness.
Process of Mesotherapy
While performing mesotherapy for skin, local anaesthesia cream is applied to the area that has to be treated. Multiple injections containing FDA-approved injectables are injected into the skin at varying depths depending on the skin concern.
Most of the time, multiple sessions are needed to see the desired effect.
