Mesotherapy is a relatively new area in cosmetology. The essence of the method is the introduction of special substances into the skin to improve its condition and get rid of defects (pigmentation, wrinkles, acne, etc.). Substances fall into problem areas in microdoses, but exert their maximum beneficial effect.
During the procedure, microneedles are used that penetrate the skin to a depth of not more than 6 mm.
Method application areas
Widely used not only mesotherapy for the face, but also mesotherapy for the body, because many women want to improve the condition of the skin on the abdomen and hips.
Today, mesotherapy is used to solve the following problems:
- age spots on the face;
- oily skin of the face;
- dry or aging skin;
- the appearance of a "second" chin and worsening of the oval of the face;
- scars and stretch marks on the body ;
- cellulite and fat deposits on the stomach and hips;
- hair loss.
Advantages of the method
Mesotherapy of the abdomen, for example, is a good alternative to liposuction, and mesotherapy of the face and decollete replaces the circular face plastic. This method is used by those who value their health.
In addition, mesotherapy has several advantages:
- no surgical intervention (incisions on the skin);
- the efficiency is very high;
- time costs are relatively small;
- the result is saved for a long time;
- there are few contraindications to the method;
- the risk of complications is small;
- Mesotherapy is perfectly combined with other cosmetic methods.
Contraindications to the method
The procedure can be performed at any age in the absence of such contraindications as:
- fear of injections and needles;
- breastfeeding and pregnancy;
- blood diseases, oncology, cholelithiasis;
- exacerbations of chronic diseases and herpes.
Preparations for mesotherapy
The composition of cocktails, with the help of which mesotherapy of the abdomen and other problem areas of the body with fatty deposits is carried out, consists mainly of lipolytic components - substances that can break down fat and act on its structure. Mesotherapy of the abdomen is given to improve the structure of the skin, get rid of the "orange peel" and stretch marks after childbirth. I would like to note that the procedure is carried out not only for women, but also for men.
Collagen smoothes wrinkles and is used in face mesotherapy. In addition, hyaluronic acid, which is normally present in the skin to maintain its water balance and turgor, is an important component of such mixtures.
In the process of exposure of the treatment cocktail to the skin, processes such as the destruction of fat cells and fibrous tissue, the improvement of blood flow and lymph flow in this area, the strengthening of the walls of blood vessels, the normalization of metabolic processes, the elimination of toxic substances and decay products occur.
Aftercare
After mesotherapy of the abdomen or hips is carried out, as well as with mesotherapy of the face, it is necessary to observe skin care measures:
- you can not visit the sauna for several days;
- you can not be in the sun;
- You can not perform depilation before and after the procedure.
Skin care consists in applying anti-inflammatory masks and products for sensitive skin.
The effect of mesotherapy lasts for a long time, which is associated with the accumulation of substances in the skin and their gradual exposure over time.
The first results can be noticed after 2-3 procedures, but for a good positive effect you need to do at least 10 procedures (1 time per week), and then maintain the effect 1 time per month.
It must be borne in mind that the procedure for mesotherapy should be carried out by a competent specialist, taking into account the rules of asepsis and antiseptics. If you violate the rules of sterility, complications such as swelling, long-lasting redness, allergies and infection can develop.
After mesotherapy is performed, the abdomen becomes elastic, stretch marks are less noticeable, and the face is fresh and radiant.
