Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is a safe and effective alternative. Pioneered in France in 1952 by Dr. Michel Pistor, Mesotherapy did not arrive in the United States until 2002. It is based on the simple principle of delivering conventional and/or homeopathic medication and vitamins directly into the mesoderm (middle layer of skin). In 2004, the German equivalent to the FDA has deemed Mesotherapy safe and effective. General anesthesia and post-operative recovery times are eliminated.

Our personal mean EMC numbers of collective inches lost after 5 or more treatments are:

Full Abdomen: 5 1/2" Arms: 2 1/4" Thighs: 4 1/4" Buttocks: 2 1/4"

Mesotherapy can be used to reduce love handles, bra bulge, saddlebags, inner/outer thighs, stomach pooch, knee pads, jiggly arms, double chins, and other pesky fat deposits

How is Mesotherapy performed?
Mesotherapy consists of multiple injections with a very fine needle. The area is first treated with an anesthetic lotion. The number of treatments vary according to the patient. We recommend between 5-10 per area.

What are the side effects of Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy has generally mild side effects. Bruising, redness, itching or burning sensations and tenderness in varied degrees may occur. As with all medical procedures where the skin integrity is compromised the possibility of infection exists. By following the set preventive guidelines the risk of infection is minimized. We have performed over 2000 procedures without complications or infections.

Does Mesotherapy Replace Liposuction?
In many cases Mesotherapy offers an alternative and not a replacement. Mesotherapy has no deaths. The major concern with Mesotherapy are bruising, swelling, transient nodules and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (dark shadows from bruising that may last several month).

Who is a Candidate for Mesotherapy?
Generally, most healthy adults. If you are pregnant, on blood thinners, an insulin dependent diabetic, have a history of blood clots or strokes, are an organ transplant recipient or HIV positive, Mesotherapy may not be a choice.
