Mesotherapy was developed by Dr. M. Pistor, a French physician, and practiced widely in Europe for many years. Mesotherapy is a specialized, medical treatment that delivers FDA approved medications, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes under the surface of the skin to the “mesoderm” layer of the skin.

Cellulite is a condition in which irregular “nodules” of fat form in the thighs, buttocks, and midsection, generally more in women than men, in spite of their weight or age. This gives the look of a ruffling & dimpling of the skin. Doctors in Europe and South America have used Mesotherapy for over 20 years to remove fat deposits and soften the skin.

Contouring of the stomach, arms, back, legs and hands can be attained with Mesotherapy. Vitamins and amino acids are used to tighten flabby skin while other agents are used to get rid of areas of fat, bringing back a more young-looking and athletic form to the body the risks and recuperation time that is needed for surgeries.

Mesotherapy can also be used to lift the skin on the face and neck. Aging, drooping and wrinkling of the skin under the chin and neck happens from an buildup of fat, loss of skin elasticity and extreme free radical damage. Using antioxidants and amino acids, Mesotherapy can help to shrivel fat from under the neck, eliminate free radical damage, and tighten loose skin. The effects rejuvenate the face, eyelids, and neck without the unnatural appearance and painful mending of a surgical face-lift.

A number of plastic surgeons in the United States caution patients against it, saying there are no U.S. studies on the safety or efficacy of mesotherapy. Many US doctors are recommending a wait and see strategy. They would like studies in the United States to determine how safe the procedure is.

Though Mesotherapy may work wonders in helping you to achieve the body you want, it is always a good idea to maintain a healthy lifestyle to not only achieve the desired results, but to keep them as well.

Mesotherapy is said to be one of the most effective cellulite treatments made available to women of all ages today. It uses the technique of mixing homeopathic medications or pharmaceutical products with amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and even enzymes to treat affected areas of cellulite. The mixture made is injected in small amounts into the middle layer of the skin or what is known as the mesoderm. Only small doses of the mixtures are administered to specific areas where cellulite is by using very small needles as well. Aside from cellulite, mesotherapy can also be used for body fat reduction, ****** rejuvenation, and body sculpturing.

Cellulite is the lumpy, dimpled appearance of the skin usually found on buttocks, legs, hips, and on the midsection. It is formed when connective tissue bands or the septae traps fat as it holds down areas of the skin. Sometimes, bulges form resulting to the “orange peel” appearance which is what women **** to see.  

Mesotherapy works by the interaction of the blended medications with the fat cells. It promotes the release of fat within then removes the connective tissue bands and melts the excess fat. It also helps in improving the blood flow in the target areas. All of these actions greatly reduce the “orange peel” appearance and size reduction of the affected area. It usually requires more or less fifteen sessions of mesotherapy to completely treat cellulites.

This treatment is also dependent on the grade of your cellulite. Cellulite too have stages just like some chronic diseases. Stage 1 is when no cellulite is seen when standing or lying down but as skin is pinched, cellulite appears. Stage 2 is when it is visible when standing but is not when lying down. Finally, Stage 3 of the cellulite progress is when it is seen whether in standing or lying down position. Depending on what stage you are in, the mixture of medication will be adjusted to achieve just the right amount for each case.

Choosing to avail of mesotherapy as cellulite treatment is really a personal choice. Nobody can force you to go and try it if it does not exactly sit well with you. If the thought of injecting mixtures of medications in your skin is a very welcome idea for you, then this treatment would work best in you. Just be sure to go to licensed and trained practitioners for this procedure. It’s better to be safe and sure than to be sorry when it’s too late.

Alison Stevens asked:


Liposuction is considered a relatively safe procedure; however, there are many reasons why a person may seek a liposuction alternative rather than undergoing cosmetic surgery. If you’re not comfortable with the idea of surgery, if you are on medication or have a medical condition that would prevent you from having cosmetic surgery, or if you think the cost of liposuction could be too great, then there are liposuction alternatives for you to consider.

Medical and cosmetic research and technology are constantly providing new methods of non-invasive body sculpting without the need for surgery. Many of these alternatives produce favorable results without the potential side-effects of liposuction.

Firming Creams

There are a number of creams on the market claiming to improve the firmness and texture of the skin. Many are aimed at reducing cellulite and stretch marks. Creams containing aminophylline are sometimes claimed by their users to reduce fat deposits but there is no scientific evidence to back this, and the claim is not made by the marketers of the products.

Lipodissolve

This is one of the latest techniques in non-surgical liposuction. Developed in Europe for cosmetic purposes, it is now being used in some parts of Europe as a liposuction alternative. Lipodissolve involves injecting a combination of medications and enzymes directly into the fat, which causes the fat to be dissolved and expelled through the body’s urine. The European developers of the technique have concluded that lipodissolve is a safe method for eliminating localized fat deposits.

Mesotherapy

This method, also known as liposculpting, can provide excellent results for those seeking a non-invasive, non-surgical liposuction alternative. Mesotherapy involves small injections of a combination of natural plant extracts, medicines and amino acids into the problem areas to dissolve the fat. The fat is then eliminated from the body with other wastes. The procedure is relatively painless and does not require an anesthetic. There is no recovery time associated with mesotherapy.

Diet and exercise

Improving the diet and getting more excercise are still the best and safest ways to lose weight and change the body’s appearance. Remember that liposuction is not a weight loss method – it is a procedure to shape the body. As an alternative to any of the above procedures and treatment, learn to accept your body shape the way it is and learn to dress in a manner that downplays your body size.

Any of the above methods may be suitable liposuction alternatives; however, it is always advisable to seek professional advice before starting any treatment.
