The 1950s gave us Elvis, Chuck Berry, and Little Richard.
Smooth natural-looking skin was all the rage, along with red lips and defined eyes.
The 50s also gave us Mesotherapy.
Pioneered by the French physician Dr. Michel Pistor in 1952, Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure that is still widely used in Europe and elsewhere to treat various injuries and medical conditions.
The secret to its success is the tiny “medicinal bullets” delivered directly into the mesoderm (middle layer of skin) by micro injections that are highly specific to the condition being treated, and has proven very effective in the treatment of cellulite and resistant fat.
The doctors at Body Renewal have the inside scoop on Mesotherapy and how it’s used today.
How It Works
To treat cellulite and resistant fat, a combination of PPC (Phosphatidylcholine), also known as lecithin, and award-winning growth factors EGF Epidermal Growth Factor are injected into the skin.
The lecithin dissolves the fat cell wall and causes fat reduction. The growth factors and peptides present in the cocktail stimulate the production of collagen so that the dermis is strengthened and the appearance of cellulite and loose skin is reduced.
Is It Safe For All Skin Types?
Mesotherapy safely treats all skin types without significant pain or downtime. It can erase centimetres of the areas treated in four to six treatment sessions, two to four weeks apart.
At Body Renewal, hundreds of Mesotherapy treatments have been administered to their patients with great results.
Can It Be Combined With Other Treatments?
The short answer is yes. More specifically, if Carboxytherapy sessions are incorporated into your Mesotherapy treatments, you can expect quicker results, and four to six treatments are usually required for cellulite and resistant fat reduction instead of the traditional six to eight treatments.
Carboxytherapy, done before the procedure, improves the circulation, metabolism and excretion of the resistant fat.
How Do I Know If It’s Right For Me?
If you’re unsure about which procedure would work best for your skin and body, you can set up a meeting with one of the Body Renewal doctors for an assessment. They’ll put together a tailor-made plan that will ensure the best possible results.
