Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a rejuvenation method in which the vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes the skin needs are injected directly under the skin via micro-needles. It nourishes, renews, and revitalizes the skin tissue. It can be applied to the face, neck, décolletage, and hands.
In facial rejuvenation, mesotherapy reduces the appearance of fine lines and gives the skin elasticity. Thanks to its hyaluronic acid content, moisture balance is achieved. The skin tone is evened out, and a dull and tired appearance gives way to a vibrant and healthy expression.
It is an ideal care option for skin worn out by factors such as seasonal transitions, stress, and aging. When applied in sessions, collagen production increases, the skin firms, and a long-term rejuvenation effect is achieved. The return to social life after the procedure is fast.
Facial mesotherapy is preferred for being a non-surgical method. Thanks to the needle-tipped delivery, it acts directly on the treatment area. Visible results can be achieved in a short time; it is especially effective as a supportive measure in combined aesthetic treatments.
What Is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy is one of the most effective ways to give your skin the revitalizing support it needs directly. Over time, our skin becomes dull, loses its elasticity, and fine lines begin to appear. The reason for this is the decrease in moisture and in structures such as collagen and elastin — found in the middle layer of the skin and which give it its youth. The creams we apply to the surface struggle to pass the skin’s protective barrier and reach this deep layer. This is exactly where mesotherapy comes in. It is a treatment method that delivers a “vitamin cocktail” — specially prepared for your skin and full of rich ingredients — directly into the middle layer of the skin with very fine needles.
This way, the skin’s metabolism is stimulated, blood circulation is accelerated, and the cells’ self-renewal process is triggered. This procedure is like giving water and nutrients directly to the roots of a wilted plant; it starts the effect instantly from within. These special mixtures, prepared according to the person’s skin needs, usually contain the following components that benefit the skin:
- Hyaluronic acid
- Vitamin C
- Antioxidants
- Amino acids
- Minerals
- B-group vitamins
Thanks to these components, the skin is saturated with moisture, gains a brighter and more vibrant appearance, fine wrinkles soften, and the skin tone is evened out.
How Is Mesotherapy Performed?
The mesotherapy treatment is a very practical process designed with the patient’s comfort in mind. Above all, the condition of your skin is analyzed in detail. What your skin needs, which areas will be targeted, and which vitamin-mineral mixture will give the best result are determined at this first stage. This ensures the treatment is completely personalized for you.
On the treatment day, your skin is first carefully cleaned and prepared with an antiseptic solution. So the procedure is completely painless and comfortable, a topical anesthetic cream is applied to the area, and we wait about 20–30 minutes for this cream to take effect. Once the skin is sufficiently numb, the special mixture prepared for you is injected into your skin in small doses with tiny, very fine needles. These injections are made at certain intervals into the areas we want to revitalize. The entire procedure is usually completed in a short time of about 15–30 minutes, depending on the size of the area.
Mesotherapy does not work miracles in a single session like a magic wand. The skin repairing and renewing itself is a process. For this reason, the treatment is planned as courses of 4–6 sessions performed 1 to 4 weeks apart, depending on the skin’s condition. Following this session schedule is of great importance to achieve the best and most lasting results.
What Is the Recovery Process After Mesotherapy Like?
The process after mesotherapy is usually mild enough not to disrupt your daily life. After the procedure, slight pinkness on your skin, small bumps at the needle entry points, or rarely tiny bruises may form. These are expected and completely normal reactions. There is no need to worry, because these effects usually subside within a few hours and disappear completely within a day or two at the latest. To maximize the success of the treatment and protect your skin, it is enough to pay attention to a few points.
There are some situations you should avoid in the first days after the procedure:
- Strenuous exercise
- Sauna and Turkish bath
- Hot showers
- Pools or the sea
- Direct sun exposure
- Tanning beds
- Alcohol-containing skin products
In addition, it is important not to wear makeup, not to rub the area, and to use only the gentle products recommended by your physician for the first 12–24 hours after the procedure. Sun protection is the most critical part of the treatment process. Since your skin will be sensitive during this period, you should always use a high-protection-factor (SPF 50+) sunscreen when going outside.
As for when you will see the results, patience is needed. You usually begin to notice that beautiful glow and revitalization in your skin after the second session. When the course is complete, your skin gains a much more moisturized, firm, smooth, and bright structure. To preserve this vitality, single-session reminder doses every 3–6 months will ensure the beautiful results you have achieved are lasting.
What Affects Mesotherapy Prices?
The main factors determining mesotherapy prices are the content of the mixture used (vitamins, amino acids, minerals), the size of the area to be treated, and the number of sessions needed. In addition, the experience of the specialist performing the treatment, the city where the clinic is located, and the quality of the equipment used also affect the price. Personalized planning and the support services offered after the procedure are also reflected in the cost.
