MESOTHERAPY

Mesotherapy is a technique which allows active principles to be injected subcutaneously. This is neither alternative nor complementary medicine, it simply consists of placing droplets of medicine under the skin. The main advantage is that this produces a local effect with no toxicity for the other organs and with no drug interaction. In aesthetic medicine, mesotherapy can be used to treat:

- ageing of the skin, by injecting a cocktail of vitamins and hyaluronic acid. The result is a glossy sheen, with a gradual reduction in the number of fine wrinkles and firming up of the skin.

- Cellulite, by injecting drugs which release the fats, toning up the muscles and the veins. This leads to a loss of fat which can be measured in centimetres and a reduction in the "orange peel skin" effect.

- Hair loss, by injecting the vitamins and trace elements needed for regrowth. The result is that hair stops dropping out to start with and then later on it slowly starts growing back.

The treatment is administered using very fine needles. It is practically painless and does not require either any preparation or any special care after the session. The injections cause moderate pain which feels a bit like insect bites. They can be carried out by hand or using an electric gun. Haematomas on the face are rare and die away in a few days on the body.

There are no contra-indications apart from pregnancy. The treatment is carried out at a rate of one session every 10 days for 4 to 6 weeks, then boosters every 6 to 8 weeks.
