Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is an injectable treatment that delivers a custom combination of skin-enhancing ingredients to your complexion.

During your consultation, we will discuss your skin concerns to determine which formulation the nurse will administer through your Mesotherapy treatment. It will usually contain a blend of hyaluronic acid, vitamins and amino acids.

Before your treatment, we may apply a topical numbing cream to your skin.

Through a series of fine injections, a bespoke blend of peptides, growth factors and antioxidants are delivered into the mesoderm (the middle layer of the skin) from between 1-4mm beneath your skin to improve skin quality and function.

We can use Mesotherapy to treat the face, hands, neck and body.

Mesotherapy is a popular treatment for those who suffer from acne scars; the blend of ingredients can improve post-inflammatory pigmentation and enhance collagen levels to help repair pitted scars.

It’s also a treatment that can provide intense hydration and revitalisation while boosting overall radiance.

Since Mesotherapy can counteract free radical damage and ignite fibroblast activity, it makes it effective at treating superficial lines and wrinkles.

It can also be suitable for those who have:

• Dry, irritated and sensitive skin
• Unexplained flakinesS
• A busy and fast-paced lifestyle and are lacking essential vitamins and nutrients
• UV damage
• Premature signs of ageing
• Uneven skin tone (i.e. pigmentation)

Results improve with each progressive treatment spaced over several sessions. The results vary from patient to patient depending on the type of Mesotherapy. Juvéderm Volite lasts as long as nine months. As the skin starts to improve, there will be more of an interlude between each treatment.

This treatment takes approximately 30 minutes – 1 hour.

You may experience bruising and redness which generally resolves after a week.

Other possible side effects include (but are not limited to):

• Irritation or allergic reaction
• Swelling
• Infection
• Post-inflammatory pigmentation from the injection trauma
• Scarring of injection site

The skin’s barrier function plays a vital role in protecting your skin from environmental aggressors such as pollutants, UV damage and irritants. When working optimally, your skin counteracts the harmful free radical damage that scavenges your healthy skin cells. However, with natural ageing, sun damage and other external forces, your skin cell barrier function weakens.

Lipids made up of cholesterol, ceramides, and fatty acid form the barrier to prevent microrganisms and irritants entering the skin and protect it from Transepidermal water loss. When the skin barrier is weak, the skin can become dry, irritated and inflamed.

Mesotherapy is one way to encourage the restoration of your skin cell barrier function and restore your natural moisturising factors, to help bring your skin back to optimal health.

With over 60 different ingredient combinations, we can adapt the Mesotherapy to your skin’s needs. With an efficient transportation system and a surge in skin-loving ingredients, skin cell function improves, and the skin repair barrier becomes more resilient to environmental aggressors and other ageing factors.

Generally, a patient will need around ten sessions to see optimal results. The number of treatments required will vary from patient to patient, depending on the patient’s skin concerns.

These sessions are usually weekly for the first month, every two weeks over the second month, and sporadically from then onwards depending on how your skin responds to treatment.

Some patients find the treatment mildly uncomfortable. We can apply topical numbing cream to minimise any discomfort.
