What is it for
The main action of Mesotherapy (also known as Intradermotherapy) is aimed at the imperfections of cellulite, fat deposits and water retention. The treatment involves the direct injection of specific active ingredients indicated both for the elimination of excess fluid and excess fat. These 'cocktails' can also have detoxifying purposes, regenerating the tone and elasticity of the tissues and the natural radiance of the skin. The advantages of Mesotherapy, which injects drugs and substances directly into the areas to be treated that would otherwise be taken systemically, are numerous. Certainly the main advantages are greater control and precision of action, targeted to the areas treated, with doses and concentrations therefore lower than those needed to obtain the same results by ingesting the drug by mouth. In other words, the drugs are injected exactly in the area where the blemish is present, in a targeted manner and with noticeable results in less time and with greater effectiveness.
How it works
The treatment involves the intradermal injection of drugs and/or active ingredients that are defined according to the objectives, acting directly in the affected area. The injection is performed using very fine needles, specially manufactured for Mesotherapy, which allow very precise control of the injection depth of the substances. The substances used in the injection mixture vary in type and concentration and are subdivided into anti-oedemigenous substances (which reduce swelling), revitalising substances (with an anti-ageing effect), substances that protect capillaries and surrounding tissues, and finally lipolytic substances (which reduce localised fat).
