Mesotherapy is an effective method of cosmetic rejuvenation, which is based on the introduction of a variety of active substances into the skin by injection. The procedure helps eliminate the first minor signs of aging. What is meso injection?
Mesotherapy: the essence of the procedure
In essence, the mesotherapy procedure is therapeutic injections. A variety of active cocktails – vitamins, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, phospholipids, herbal extracts – are injected under the skin. In some cases, a physician-cosmetologist makes an individual meso cocktail for a patient depending on the characteristics of his skin problems.
Mesotherapy takes place as follows: a series of micro-injections with a unique cocktail is injected with an ultrafine needle into the upper layer (to a depth of 1.5-3.9 mm) of the skin. Meso procedure has the main advantage that the active ingredients penetrate deep into the dermis. This accelerates metabolism, increases blood circulation, improves skin tightness and hydration, and regenerates cells.
