A great replacement would be mesobotox. Reviews and photos make sure the excellent result of the procedure. The nuances of this type of rejuvenation are described in the article.
The concept
The mesobotox procedure is the surface administration of drugs with a toxin. The doctor performs the treatment of the problem area with shallow (2-4 mm) punctures. At each point, an injection of 1-4 units of the drug comes.
The toxin after uniform distribution over the upper layers of the skin enters the nearest muscle fibers. Partially performed muscle paralysis. Blocking part of the muscle fibers leads to superficial relaxation of tissues, uniform tension of the skin, smoothing out small wrinkles.
With partial immobilization of the muscles, natural facial expressions are preserved. The skin will not be a mask, it will be mobile. This is a plus over the classic Botox. With the technique, a natural look is preserved, an easy anti-aging effect is provided. But to cope with deep wrinkles will not work.
According to reviews, mesobotox is appreciated for the lack of many side effects. According to doctors, the procedure can be used in dangerous places for ordinary Botox. Many women have already managed to try this procedure, evaluate its positive effect.
Effect
Due to the positive properties, many prefer this procedure over Botox. Facial injections are designed to eliminate the first folds that appear with active facial expressions. Another procedure solves age-related skin problems of fine wrinkled type of aging. The technique idealizes the integument, eliminates minor aesthetic problems.
Efficiency is observed in the following cases:
- small facial wrinkles appear;
- a large surface mesh occurs;
- small folds are formed in the forehead, nasolabial triangle, mouth, neck, décolleté.
Do I need to perform the procedure, the doctor must determine. This is determined by the condition of the skin. According to indications, the technique is effective for young girls and adult ladies. According to reviews, mesobotox yields excellent results when exposed to sensitive areas: eyes, lips. Another procedure is performed on the neck, décolleté. The technique is used on sagging skin, with a decreased muscle tone.
Mesobotox is often part of other procedures:
- contour plastics;
- hardware rejuvenation;
- chemical peeling.
The procedure improves skin quality. Excellent compatibility with professional procedures, a small number of negative consequences will help to achieve significant results from injections.
Preparations
For injections, standard drugs are used, in which there is type A botulinum toxin. Botox and Dysport are in demand. But it is possible to use other drugs with a toxin: Xeomin, Lantox. It is inappropriate to use "Relatox", which leads to pain. If mesobotox is performed, how to dilute the drug? The basis is diluted with saline.
To get the additional effect of improving the quality of the skin that doctors perform a cocktail, for mesotherapy or biorevitalization. As a result, for 1 procedure you can find several results. Some doctors believe that creating a mixture is unacceptable. Then mesobotox is prescribed, and after 2-4 weeks a course of conventional mesotherapy is performed.
More drug is administered in quantity, but it is diluted botulinum toxin. Processing of the skin, not muscle, occurs. Overdose, no side effects. The doctor selects the composition individually based on the problems and the expected result.
Do not perform the procedure at home, without a specialist. Only a professional is able to assess the condition of the skin of the face, correctly carry out the manipulation and provide effective recommendations regarding facial skin care.
Security
Mesobotox under the eyes and for other parts of the face is a safe procedure compared to conventional “beauty injections”. The technique is based on injection correction of external problems. Such manipulations are associated with a health risk.

Training
Before the procedure, an assessment of the morphology of the facial bones is required. The face is evaluated using visual inspection, muscle palpation. This allows you to establish the ratio of muscle mass and bone structure. To assess the work of muscles, it is necessary to perform facial movements and the adoption of expressions that emphasize the functions of muscles and show the level of their relationship.
The patient needs to perform at least 5 movements:
- Tight eye closure.
- Maximum eye opening by raising eyebrows.
