Body Mesotherapy
The term body mesotherapy refers to the injection of special substances beneath the surface of the skin (intradermally). This treatment can address a multitude of skin problems and imperfections of the body. Body mesotherapy is an injectable technique and can be applied to the buttocks, thighs, and generally to any area where there is localized fat and cellulite. Localized fat accumulation and cellulite typically begin to appear at the end of adolescence. Several genetic, hormonal, and vascular factors play an important role in the formation of cellulite and localized fat accumulation. The problem is significantly worsened by poor dietary habits, a sedentary lifestyle, and increased stress. Therefore, body mesotherapy is the most modern alternative method for addressing these issues. The desired result is achieved by injecting mild pharmaceutical substances, vitamins, and enzymes into the problematic area.
The benefits of body mesotherapy and in which areas it is applied?
The problems addressed by body mesotherapy become noticeable at the end of adolescence or the beginning of adulthood. Such problems include cellulite or localized fat. Therefore, the earlier someone can intervene, the better! One can undergo the treatment regardless of age.

What substances are injected into the skin during mesotherapy and how long do the results of the procedure last?
The most commonly used substances in body mesotherapy are organic silicon, hyaluronic acid, carnitine, and caffeine. After the application of body mesotherapy, the patient notices not only the loss of local fat but also a tighter and more youthful appearance of their skin. Additionally, there is a visible improvement in the body contour. After the second treatment, the results are usually immediately visible, but for the best outcome, it is advisable to complete the required series of sessions.
Is body mesotherapy a painful procedure and what are the potential side effects or complications?
Before starting the process of body mesotherapy, an anesthetic cream is applied to the area of interest on the body. During the treatment, a microscopic needle is used. However, due to the large area over which the entire process is carried out, as well as the depth at which the substance is injected, there is a sensation of “pinching” or “burning.” This sensation, however, is very tolerable after the anesthetic cream is applied. The most common side effect of body mesotherapy is bruising, which is due to the insertion of the needle but disappears within the first week. Other side effects that may occur include localized swelling, erythema, and itching.

What is the duration of the procedure, how many sessions are required, and what should the candidate pay attention to for body mesotherapy before and after the sessions?
The duration of each visit depends on the needs of each individual’s problem. Usually, 3 to 6 sessions are required, every 1 to 2 weeks, always depending on the case. It is also recommended to repeat the procedure once or twice a year for maintenance. There are various instructions and restrictions that always depend on the case of each patient. Initially, aspirin should not be consumed for at least two weeks. It is advisable for candidates to consume meals rich in protein. Additionally, they should avoid stimulants like caffeine for several hours before and after the treatment. Furthermore, the patient should not take a hot shower for 8 hours after the session.
What is the right time to make an appointment?
Usually, the cycle of body mesotherapy sessions lasts about two months. Doctors recommend that this two-month period does not coincide with the summer season, so that bruises are not visible when wearing swimsuits. Additionally, it is important to adhere to the application of sunscreen if the treatment is done during the summer months. Nevertheless, there is no prohibition against undergoing the treatment in the summer.
