Mesotherapy
AC Skin Health discusses some some FAQs on Mesotherapy.
Mesotherapy comes from the Greek work mesos meaning “middle”. It involves small injections of a pharmaceutical cocktail into the subcutaneous fat. It is non-invasive and non-surgical.
Mesotherapy has been done by dermatologists for over decades now to treat localized fat as seen in the abdomen, flabs, flanks, back, arms, thighs, and even on the face such as the double chin.
Depending on the ingredients of the mesotherapy cocktail used, it dissolves the localized fat, which is eventually excreted from the body. Some medicine also cause increased local metabolism of fat resulting in smaller fat accumulation.
Patients may see results after one session, but in general, it is recommended for you to have weekly sessions for at least 3-5 weeks, depending on the severity of the area to be treated.
Common side effects are injection discomfort, pain, bruising, redness, and possible swelling on area treated. These symptoms are alleviated with using cold compresses during and after treatment.
The effect of mesotherapy, like any other fat management treatments depend on several factors. Results are best maintained with the appropriate diet and exercise.
