Mesotherapy is a discipline that was developed by Michel Pistor in 1952. It involves painless microinjections into the skin achieving a desired therapeutic result. Although Mesotherapy has been used extensively in Europe, it has only recently been introduced in the United States.
Uses of Mesotherapy include fat and cellulite reduction, control of pain conditions, hair re-growth, weight loss, wrinkle elimination, scar improvement, acne treatment, arthritis and joint problems, sports injuries, stretch marks, among others. Treatment with Mesotherapy for aesthetic/cosmetic improvement is referred to as Mesoplasty®.
| How does Mesoplasty® Work? |
The medications used in Mesoplasty® cause shrinkage of fat cells by dissolving fat. The fat is then excreted through the urine and bowels. Mesoplasty® can also improve the appearance of cellulite (fibrous bands that tent the skin).
Cellulite is reduced by decreasing the size of the trapped fat cells. Mesoplasty® also enhances hair re-growth by improving circulation of the scalp and providing needed nutrition to hair follicles. The effect of Mesoplasty® can be enhanced by eliminating toxins from the diet and maintaining a healthy program of exercise.
| How is Mesoplasty® Administered? |
A special combination of medications is administered via a specially designed applicator which delivers the medicine painlessly into the skin. The delivery system used a very fine needle that moves at a high rate of speed leading to painless treatment. The procedure involved a series of these painless injections into the area to be treated. Generally 3-5 treatments are required to achieve the desired result.
| Candidates for Mesoplasty® |
Any healthy individual with an interest in fat/cellulite reduction, hair re-growth, or wrinkle reduction is a candidate for Mesoplasty®. Any individual with significant medical problems should consult with their family physician to determine if they are a candidate for Mesoplasty®. Individuals who are on blood thinners, pregnant, or have other severe medical problems are not good candidates for Mesoplasty®.
