The essence of the procedure

The essence of mesotherapy is the administration of vitamin injections that act on the skin from the inside, smoothing and healing it. Our dermis is not a vital organ, so all the nutrients we get from food are provided to other, more important areas. Due to a lack of vitamins, the dermis ages, becomes dull, and prone to various rashes. Experts suggested introducing mechanically all the nutrients that rejuvenate, smooth out wrinkles, and prevent aging.

Cosmetic companies promise to smooth out wrinkles with the help of various creams that penetrate deep into the dermis. But often these creams are able to penetrate only the upper layers of the epidermis. And the injections penetrate deep, removing the main source of wrinkles.

At the first consultation with a cosmetologist, the specialist determines your skin type and creates a recipe for a vitamin cocktail that will suit you best. The main active ingredients of the injections are:

• Hyaluronic acid – rejuvenates, smoothes fine and deep wrinkles.
• Ascorbic acid – evens out tone and removes age spots.
• Collagen, elastin - smooth out the contour of the face, restores the elasticity and youth of the dermis. The skin is capable of producing these elements itself, but with age, metabolism is disrupted, their production slows down, which leads to the appearance of wrinkles and fading.

The injections are sold ready-made, or you can do them yourself.

Anyone who decides to use this service needs to fully understand what will happen during the session. Let's take a closer look at how the classic version is carried out in the salon.

1. Initially, the patient is given a blood test and various laboratory tests to identify contraindications. The doctor determines the skin type, examines the patient completely, identifies problem areas, conducts an allergy test, and selects a prescription for injections.
2. Then makeup removal and deep cleansing of the pores are carried out. Using special creams, local anesthesia is administered and areas for injections are marked.
3. After this, the meso cocktail is introduced. The final step is to apply a soothing mask.
4. Acupuncture is carried out in courses of 5-7 sessions. Their number depends on the condition of the skin. During the course, the patient regularly visits the doctor, who monitors the effectiveness. After completing the course, it will take a week to recover. The next treatment will be required in a year.

Combination of mesotherapy with cosmetology techniques

• LPG massage - endermological massage using vacuum rollers improves lymphatic drainage processes, stimulates microcirculation and starts the process of natural lipolysis.
• Ultrasonic cavitation lipolysis - atraumatic ultrasound influence corrects cellulite and local fat deposits.
• Thermolifting - radio frequency currents warm up the skin tissue, reduce fat “traps” and increase the elasticity of the skin.
• Pressotherapy - compressed air in special chambers restores lymph movement and cellular metabolism.
• Anti-cellulite massage - stimulates muscle activity and reduces volume by burning adipocytes.
• Wraps - saturate the skin with nutrients and provide elasticity.

Alternative Application Methods

• Electrophoresis - pulsed or constant currents promote deep diffusion of components into skin cells and tissues.
• Ultrasound therapy - ultrasonic injection of therapeutic agents into skin structures activates cellular metabolism.
• Oxygen mesotherapy - a stream of water with oxygen performs micromassage of tissue and activates metabolic processes.
• Cryomesotherapy - biological substances and cold accelerate microcirculation and give a tightening effect.
• Laser exposure - a directed beam of light stimulates blood circulation and delivers drugs to the point of influence.

Kinds

The most effective way to get vitamin cocktails under the skin is to insert them with a needle. But there are other methods designed for those who are afraid of one type of needle. Let's look at all existing types.

Classic injection mesotherapy of the face involves the doctor injecting cocktails into different depths of the skin. This procedure is performed manually under local anesthesia. For the ideal effect, you need to complete a course of several sessions.

Hardware facial mesotherapy is the penetration of beneficial substances into the deep layers of the dermis without needles. These sessions are carried out using electrophoresis, laser exposure, and phono cutter. Outgoing sound waves affect the pores so that all useful substances are able to penetrate deep inside.

Oxygen facial mesotherapy is the penetration of beneficial vitamins under the skin using oxygen pressure. After cleansing and opening the pores, a vitamin cocktail is distributed over the dermis, then using a special apparatus, all areas are treated with an oxygen flow, maintaining a pressure of 2 atmospheres. It is worth considering that under oxygen pressure substances are able to penetrate only into the upper and middle layers of the epidermis, leaving deeper ones untouched.

There is another type of facial rejuvenation, which is very similar to non-injection mesotherapy - biorevitalization. On our website you can find out more about it, read reviews and the main differences between biorevitalization and mesotherapy.

Essence of the method

So, facial mesotherapy – what is it? The method is little known to the public and is a minimally invasive alternative medicine technique. It is used in cosmetology to eliminate skin and bodily defects.

The procedure involves the administration of minimal doses of various drugs by injection or non-injection method. Mesotherapy can be called actions when the drug is injected into the skin, fat or tissue part of the mesoderm, that is, into the middle layer of the skin.

The mesotherapy procedure is not easy, since it is necessary to know and understand what the effect of a particular drug on the skin will be. Unfortunately, this technique has not been fully studied and it is impossible to say with certainty how beneficial or dangerous the procedure is for humans.

Mesotherapy is similar in its effect to the biorevitalization procedure - both methods involve injection delivery of the active substance. The difference between biorevitalization is that hyaluronic acid is used as an active component, which moisturizes the skin for a long time, while complexes of broad-spectrum drugs are used for mesotherapy. The link describes in detail the difference between mesotherapy and biorevitalization.

Hyaluronic acid, vitamins, microelements, amino acids, enzymes, as well as substances that improve blood circulation and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin can be used for mesotherapy. The question remains of how facial mesotherapy is done. This will be described below.

Carrying out

If there are no contraindications, the doctor can begin the procedure immediately after consultation and examination.

First of all, the area requiring treatment is cleaned of various contaminants and disinfected. Antiseptic agents are used for this purpose. If the drug requires injection into the facial area, then a special cream with an anesthetic property is first applied to the skin.

In some cases, it is necessary to add an anesthetic to the lipolytic. This, for example, could be Lidocaine.

After all preparatory measures have been completed, injections begin to be made into the problem area, and the depth of penetration of the needle should be at least 6 millimeters. During the procedure, the patient may feel discomfort when the skin is pierced. There is no pain, since only ultra-thin needles are used.

After the injection is given, the specialist performs a light massage of this area, which allows the drug to be evenly distributed within the layers of the dermis.

At the final stage, an anti-inflammatory cream is applied.

The duration of lipolytic mesotherapy takes from 15 to 60 minutes. The exposure time will depend on factors such as the size of the area being treated and the duration of the anesthetic.

How to do facial mesotherapy at home

This procedure can be done independently at home, but you must take responsibility, because if the drug is administered incorrectly, you can seriously harm yourself.

For the session you will need

• For home use you need a special mesoscooter. It is a roller with densely packed, very thin needles. For home use, it is recommended to take needles no longer than 0.2-0.5 mm.

• You can purchase a meso cocktail ready-made or make it yourself. Its best composition will be hyaluronic acid, rosehip oil, collagen.

• Chlorhexidine has an antibacterial effect.

• Panthenol will calm the dermis after the session.

Step-by-step instruction

1. Wash well, remove makeup. Perform a light scrub and steam your face to open the pores well. For this it is better to use a herbal decoction.
2. Treat the mesoscooter with chlorhexidine and let it dry.
3. Using cotton pads, treat your face with chlorhexidine to prevent infection.
4. Spread the meso cocktail evenly over the surface and leave for 5 minutes.
5. Based on the facial massage lines, massage with a mesoscooter, move it up and down, left and right. If there are significant problems on the skin, pay more attention to them. The roller pierces the skin, activating the production of collagen and elastin. The beneficial substances of the meso cocktail penetrate better under the skin.
6. After treatment, lie quietly for 15 minutes. Wash your face with cold water, wipe your face with chlorhexidine, then apply panthenol, it soothes and relieves redness.

For maximum effect, it is recommended to take a 5-day course with an interval of 7 days.

Independent use of mesotherapy for weight loss

Mesoscooters (dermarollers) are used for home use. A mesoscooter is a specialized individual device in the form of a roller attachment and a handle with thin metal needles up to 3 mm long, up to 1,200 pieces.

When massaged with a mesoscooter, mini-channels automatically appear for substances to penetrate the skin in full. The procedure destroys fat cells and stimulates metabolic processes. Indications for microneedling are identical to those for classical mesotherapy.

When using a dermaroller, it is important to keep in mind several important nuances.

1. The correct choice of device is important. For the body and large areas, purchase wide mesoscooters (up to 40 mm). For example, Body Roller, YYR, GMT/DRS.
2. The device is replaced with a new one when the microneedles wear out.
3. Before using microneedling, it is necessary to consult a doctor to identify possible contraindications and the required method of exposure.
4. The mesoscooter is stored in a sealed case.
5. The procedure time is 7-10 minutes for one zone. The course consists of 10-20 sessions with an interval of 2-3 times a week.
6. When working with a dermaroller, movements should be light, without strong pressure. 10-20 passes are made in both directions for one zone. It is recommended to treat no more than 2-3 areas at a time.
7. Before the session, targeted products are applied to the skin. For example, to reduce volume - Mezorollers Lipolysis, to correct stretch marks and add elasticity - Mezorollers Elastin, Mezorollers Collagen.
8. If there is pain, apply an anesthetic cream 15-20 minutes before the procedure.
9. Microneedling is performed on thoroughly cleansed skin using an antiseptic.
10. Disinfection and disinfection of the device occurs by washing in running water with treatment in special solutions (for example, Amidin Aqua, Octenisept).
11. After the procedure, regenerating agents are used (for example, Traumeel, Cora concentrate for elasticity) and general rehabilitation recommendations are followed.
