Non Surgical Cosmetic Treatment

The lasting answer to Cellulite

A medical technique originally developed in 1958 by a Frenchman, Dr Michel Pistor, to treat such conditions as Rheumatology, Sports Traumatology, infectious diseases, vascular diseases and to improve blood circulation. Mesotherapy has subsequently been extremely successful in the treatment of aesthetic conditions.

What conditions can be treated?

Mesotherapy can eliminate cellulite on the legs and buttocks, breaking down the orange-peel appearance of the skin, and producing a smooth contour. It can successfully treat stubborn localised fat such as love handles, lower abdomen, under arms, axillary folds, inner thighs and buttocks folds. Cellulite/Orange Peel effect and Weight loss can be effectively managed with the use of Mesotherapy. The treatment stimulates the mesoderm, or middle layer of the skin, which in turn helps to disburse the cellulite.

The Treatment

Injecting a customized cocktail of substances that can include vitamins, homeopathic medicines, minerals, medications and amino acids in small amounts immediately beneath the surface of the skin to break down the cellulite and to improve circulation, as well as lymphatic and venous drainage. Each treatment takes about twenty minutes and is not painful. After the treatment you can return to normal activities. The addition of Vitamin C to the mixture encourages the tone and quality of the overlying skin.

Treatment may be carried out immediately after an initial consultation, at which point you will be informed as to how many treatments you will require. Micro-injections are given weekly over a period of 4 to 8 weeks. The treatment is long-lasting and the results measurable. When the desired effects are achieved, all that is required is annual maintenance over a 4-6 week period. Superb results are achieved, and those being treated look and feel better both during and after treatment. Overall, with a moderate amount of lifestyle change, Mesotherapy can provide measurable improvements with people losing up to 2cm from the circumference of their thighs after only 6 sessions.

Mesotherapy can be used as a supplement, or an alternative, to many anti-aging regimens, including botox, laser resurfacing, peels, antioxidants, topical creams and facelifts.

What are the side effects?

The most significant side effects of Mesotherapy are black and blue marks, a 15- to 20-minute burning sensation, mild to moderate soreness for 1-5 days, and (as with any injection) a slight risk of infection. All patients return to work the same day.
