Mesotherapy for Skin Rejuvenation

Mesotherapy is a medical technique devised in the 1950s by a Frenchman called Dr Michel Pistor. It was first used to treat such conditions as rheumatism, sports injuries, and for the improvement of blood circulation. It has now been used successfully by some practitioners for the treatment of cosmetic conditions, including skin rejuvenation and improvement, hair regrowth, localised fat reduction and also as a treatment for cellulite.

It is commonly practised and taught in France, where more than 15,000 practitioners use Mesotherapy; and although it is also practised in many other countries around the world, it has not currently gained widespread acceptance by cosmetic clinics in the UK or America.

It involves the injection of a specially prepared mixture of vitamins, amino acids, and medications, placed just millimetres under the skin into the problematic area. Just a drop of the solution is used at each injection site into the mesoderm, or surface layer of the skin.

The actual mixture of drugs injected into the mesoderm depends upon the problem being treated. In general, the substances fall into the following classes: vasodilators (to treat the veins), anti-inflammatories (to reduce swelling), muscle relaxants, proteolytic enzymes, vitamins, minerals, plant extracts, vaccines, anti-infectives, hormones, hormone blockers, general medicine drugs, and anaesthetics.

The idea is that you can get these active substances to the site requiring treatment by directly injecting them there.

This is instead of relying on a tablet or intravenous injection where higher concentrations of the drug are required in order to get adequate levels to the site requiring treatment. Mesotherapy is therefore both more precise and requires less solution to be injected.

In the treatment of ageing skin, mesotherapy aims to improve circulation, replace lost vitamins, minerals and amino acids, or boost levels of hyaluronic acid (a component of the skin that helps to maintain firmness and texture), that are found in lower levels in skin as we age.

Mesotherapy involves multiple injections using a very fine needle, (sometimes mounted in a gun shaped device), immediately beneath the surface of the skin. Each treatment is generally not painful and takes about ten to twenty minutes; after which you can return to normal activities. Repeat treatments are given every couple of weeks for two to three treatment courses. When the desired effects are achieved, you will require a maintenance program of every 2 - 3 months.

Private costs for Mesotherapy can range from approximately £50 to several £100s per treatment session.
