Mesotherapy – The Skinny on Safe and Effective Fat Loss!

Mesotherapy is a simple procedure that literally melts the fat off your body – spot-specific and localized to where you need it the most. Mesotherapy offers a non-surgical approach to rid your body of stubborn fat, reduce the cellulite on your rear-end and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles on your face. This medical technique involves small injections of amino acids, vitamins, minerals, homeopathic and conventional medicines into the skin to dissolve away fat, rejuvenate the skin and improve your appearance from the inside out.

Mesotherapy originated in France in the 1950’s and is quickly becoming the safer alternative to liposuction and plastic surgery. Recently published in magazines and airing on CBS and ABC – Mesotherapy has many other names including: Lipodissolve, Mesosculpt, Thinject, Mesoplasty, Flabjab and Melt Away.

Mesotherapy Applications:

Cellulite Reduction in Mesotherapy

The medical term for cellulite is liposclerosis/lipoedema. Cellulite involves connective tissue bands that trap fat and create a dimpled affect. This dimpling occurs in over 90% of women. Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not related to weight, but rather to poor hydration, poor circulation and genetics. When Mesotherapy is performed to an area of cellulite, it increases blood and lymphatic flow, decreases the fibrotic connective tissue bands, and melts away fat deposits. The net result is a smoother skin and the reduction of cellulite.

Body Contouring in MesoSculpting

Because of Mesotherapy’s ability to reduce fat deposits locally, it is a wonderful alternative to liposuction. The MesoSculpting technique uses micro-injections of lipotropics (basically: fat-melting substances) to reduce stubborn fat deposits that fail to be removed by diet or exercise. Phosphatidylcholine (PPC) is an antioxidant derived from natural soy lecithin. PPC occurs naturally in the body and is used for its “fat-dissolving” properties for areas of: the Buttocks, Saddle Bags, Thighs, Love Handles, Hips, Stomach, and Upper Arms. Patients have lost up to two dress sizes with multiple treatments or up to four inches off their waist, hips and thighs.

Body Rejuvenation

Mesotherapy is also highly effective for tonifying and tightening sagging skin on the neck, décolletage, breasts, legs, abdomen, arms and hands. Women in Europe and South America have used this technique for decades to enhance their self-image and self-esteem.

Facial Rejuvenation in Meso-Glow / Meso-Lifting

As your skin ages, circulation decreases, collagen production dramatically declines, and a decrease in oxygen and nutrients hinders your body’s ability to flush toxins. These processes drive premature aging and cause the skin to appear sallow and ashen. Add sun damage to the mix and these devitalized skin cells build up over time causing the skin to lose its resiliency and plumpness. MesoGlow / MesoLift delivers essential nutrients to stimulate the skin’s metabolism to promote collagen and elastin production, replenish cellular hydration, and nourish the skin. After treatment, patients commonly describe their skin as looking rested, radiant, glowing and firmer. MesoGlow / MesoLift is a fantastic alternative to botox or facelifts – I like to think of it as your NO-TOX solution!

Why Now? Why You?

Why not?! The winter season is a perfect time for Mesotherapy in preparation for spring and summer holidays, weddings or other important events. Mesotherapy treatments need to be administered 1-4 weeks apart for a recommended 6-10 treatments. For patients to achieve maximum and long-lasting results, I always suggest dietary and nutritional programs to aid in the process and help maintain the desired results.
