How does mesotherapy work?

Mesotherapy is a popular aesthetic procedure that involves the application of substances such as amino acids, enzymes, hormones, minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid to the skin. These substances stimulate collagen and elastin, which keep the skin alive and tight. They accelerate blood circulation, regulate immune response, and circulation in the lymphatic system, resulting in skin renewal. Subcutaneous tissue is repaired, and loosened tissues regain firmness and rejuvenation. Results and success rates depend on factors like the number of sessions, the correct injection ratio, and the individual's health condition.

The skin is regenerated by introducing necessary substances like minerals, vitamins, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants. Mesotherapy can also help eliminate cellulite, a skin circulatory disorder, by accelerating blood circulation, regulating lymph circulation, and dissolving fats and connective tissues. Cellulite formation can be prevented with healthy nutrition and regular exercise.

Hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin's middle and first layers to replace the missing hyaluronic acid, which decreases with aging. Mesotherapy uses micro needles to inject the drug mixture into the skin at specific intervals, adjusting the application to deeper areas. More sessions may be needed at a one-week interval. Anesthetic cream may be applied 30-40 minutes before the procedure, and the treatment duration may vary. The recovery time depends on the patient's condition, with some patients returning to daily life, while others may experience redness, swelling, and bruising.
