DEVELOPED IN EUROPE IN THE 1950S, THIS INJECTABLE PROCEDURE INVOLVES THE USE OF VITAMINS, ENZYMES, HORMONES, AND PLANT EXTRACTS COMPOUNDED BY SPECIALTY PHARMACIES TO REJUVENATE AND TIGHTEN SKIN AND EMULSIFY FAT. IT IS USED VERY EFFECTIVELY FOR SPOT FAT REDUCTION IN PLACES SUCH AS THE CHIN, ARMS, “BRA BULGE”, INNER THIGHS, FLANKS (“LOVE HANDLES”), LATERAL THIGHS (“SADDLE BAGS”), AND ABDOMEN. WE ALSO COMMONLY USE MESOTHERAPY IN CONJUNCTION WITH DERMAL FILLER FOR FACIAL CONTOURING.

THE PROCEDURE TAKES ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND RESULTS IN MILD TO MODERATE SWELLING AND REDNESS, AND A MILDLY SORE SENSATION AT THE INJECTION SITE. THIS IS AN EXPECTED RESPONSE DUE TO THE MECHANISM OF ACTION OF THE CHEMICAL COMPOUND. SYMPTOMS DECREASE OVER THE COURSE OF A FEW DAYS, AND THE AREA CAN BE TREATED AS MANY TIMES AS DESIRED EVERY 4 WEEKS. RESULTS ARE OPTIMAL 6 WEEKS AFTER TREATMENT, AND THEY ARE ALSO PERMANENT.
