Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure aimed at eliminating aesthetic imperfections of the skin. Depending on the results of her diagnosis, the doctor prepares a therapeutic “cocktail”, which includes vitamins, amino acids, hyaluronic acid and other useful substances. This elixir of youth is injected into the middle layer of the dermis, which, having received additional nutrition, improves its texture.
What does mesotherapy give?
After completing a course of procedures, you will notice how your skin tone will improve, small wrinkles will smooth out, bags under your eyes will disappear, your complexion will improve, and your oval will become more youthful.
Mesotherapy also normalizes the functioning of the sebaceous glands, which means it will rid the skin of oily shine, even out the tone of the face, “cleansing” it of hyperpigmentation, scars. But that’s not all, because “meso-cocktails” have an antioxidant effect. This means that it will be easier for you to relieve inflammation on the skin and cleanse the pores of sebaceous plugs.
How is the therapy process built?
It all starts with a visit to the doctor. Only a specialist, not only in skin diagnostics, but also in the latest aesthetic medicine, will be able to select the optimal rejuvenation program. During the initial consultation, the dermatocosmetologist:
- Will analyze the condition of the skin.
- Find out about past and existing diseases.
- Find out your body's reaction to certain drugs.
- He will select the composition and optimal method of treating the skin based on your wishes (therapy can be either needle or non-injection).
Who is suitable for mesotherapy?
We recommend resorting to these rejuvenating procedures for people who have reached or are approaching their 30th birthday. As a rule, from this age the skin begins to lose moisture and gradually fade. Timely replenishment of tissues with useful substances allows you to stop cell aging. And if you do “meso-cocktails” regularly, you will look much younger than your age, since thanks to microinjections, vitamins, amino acids and other beneficial substances penetrate deep into the skin of the face, having a direct effect on it - unlike cosmetics that act primarily on the epidermis.
How does the mesotherapy procedure work?
No special preparation is required for mesotherapy. Doctors recommend not to abuse alcoholic beverages for several days before visiting the clinic.
1. Consultation.
At the initial meeting, the cosmetologist determines the indications and contraindications for the procedure. If nothing interferes with the procedure, it can be done immediately after the consultation.
2. Cleansing.
The doctor removes decorative cosmetics and disinfects the skin.
3. Applying markings (if necessary).
The doctor determines the injection site for the drug.
4. Preparing the meso cocktail.
5. Direct injection.
The procedure does not require anesthesia and is almost painless. Its duration is on average half an hour. Injection depth is from 1.5 to 3.9 mm.
6. Skin treatment and receiving recommendations.
The doctor disinfects the skin and applies a healing agent. Next, the specialist will advise you on all issues related to the recovery period.
After leaving the clinic, it is better to avoid a long stay on the street. After injections, the skin is vulnerable, so we recommend traveling home or to work.
After the procedure:
The first 2-3 hours. Swelling and redness may occur at the injection sites.
The first 2-3 days. These days, it is advisable to avoid steaming your face, intense physical activity, drinking alcoholic beverages and smoking. On the first day you cannot wash your face. You must use ointments and creams prescribed by your doctor. It is recommended to drink more water and eat a healthy diet. There may be small bruises at the injection sites.
The first 7-10 days. You cannot do facial massage, peeling, or cleansing. It is forbidden to go to the bathhouse, swimming pool, solarium. Prolonged exposure to the sun should be avoided. It is necessary to use products with SPF protection. The use of decorative cosmetics should be kept to a minimum.
If you follow the cosmetologist's recommendations, the effect of mesotherapy will be pronounced and long-lasting. A course of procedures allows you to look 5 years younger.
How many procedures are required to solve aesthetic problems? Usually this is from 3 to 8 sessions with an average interval of a week. You need to visit mesotherapy again after six months. Subsequently, a couple of procedures once a year may be sufficient.
How many procedures are needed to improve skin health?
To achieve results, you need to undergo 6 to 10 mesotherapy sessions. The break between them should be on average one week.
Note:
Improvement in the skin will not be noticeable immediately, since bioactive microelements must first accumulate in the dermis. You will feel and see positive changes 10-15 days after the start of anti-aging therapy, and with each procedure they will be more noticeable. But you cannot interrupt the course - otherwise you will not be able to consolidate the achieved result.
How often can facial mesotherapy be done?
Dermatocosmetologists at VERSUA Clinic recommend repeating the course of microinjections no earlier than after a year. Otherwise, the skin may become accustomed to vitamin cocktails. It's too much.
Note:
The sooner you start a skin correction program, the longer the results of cosmetic procedures will last. That is, if microinjections are performed from 25-28 years of age as a preventive measure, the effect of therapy will last for a longer period - up to 2-2.5 years.
Much depends on the individual characteristics of the skin. Therefore, the answer to the question of how often mesotherapy can be done in your case should only be given by the doctor who performed this procedure.
What determines the duration of the course of procedures?
1. Depending on the client’s age. The sooner you start professional skin care, the less often you will visit a cosmetology center, since the effect of therapy will be the most long-lasting. We recommend performing facial mesotherapy from the age of 25. On average, it is at this age that the body gradually slows down the production of substances responsible for maintaining the health and beauty of the skin.
Note:
For clients under 30 years of age, the doctor mainly prescribes “cocktails” containing vitamins, amino acids and minerals. For older people, formulations supplemented with hyaluronic acid, medications, etc. are more suitable.
2. From the drugs used. The results of therapy do not appear immediately. It will be visible only after 2-4 procedures, since the active substances of the “cocktails” act on skin cells slowly. Much depends on the components of the chosen drug. Hyaluronic acid moisturizes the skin immediately, while microelements can be absorbed for 5-10 days.
3. From the chosen technique. Injection mesotherapy requires fewer sessions than non-injection mesotherapy. This is explained by the fact that when giving injections, the active components penetrate deeper under the skin. For comparison: a standard injection course ranges from 4 to 8 sessions with an interval of one week. Non-injection - from 6 to 12.
4. From the task at hand. To increase skin elasticity, even out its texture and tone, a standard injection course is sufficient. To resolve hernias under the eyes, the number of sessions can be reduced to 2-4. If you want to improve your scalp health using vitamin “cocktails,” the result will be achieved in 10-15 procedures.

Benefits of mesotherapy
Not only mesotherapy, but also laser rejuvenation and biorevitalization have the effect of rejuvenating and eliminating skin problems. However, these are all different procedures.
See for yourself:
Sign | Laser rejuvenation | Biorevitalization | Mesotherapy |
What's the basis | Exposure to laser energy that burns out columns of tissue so that the remaining cells create new skin | Introduction of native hyaluronic acid - a substance that deeply moisturizes the skin | Introduction of a mixture of hyaluronic acid and other substances - micronutrients, antiseptics |
Effect against acne | No, just post-acne | No | Yes, if you choose a special cocktail |
Lifting effect | Expressed | Average | Average |
Impact on rosacea | Yes | Almost not | Yes, when choosing the desired cocktail |
Moisturizing dry skin | No | Yes, significant | Yes, a little less than biorevitalization |
Thus, it is best to entrust the process of selecting the procedure that is right for you to your doctor.
