Mesotherapy was first developed by a French doctor, Michel Pistor, in 1952. It remains a popular procedure in aesthetic medicine and cosmetic dermatology. Mesotherapy involves injecting various cosmetic formulations, such as hyaluronic acid, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, into the skin’s middle layer, also called the mesodermal layer. Facial injections can be made using a single needle or an automated device known as the mesotherapy “gun.”
This dermatological treatment is similar to microneedling, whereby tiny needles create micro-channels on the skin’s surface. Mesotherapy is different, however, because the needles simultaneously deliver ingredients that are designed to achieve specific aesthetic goals. The technique is commonly used for skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, and in some cases, to dissolve stubborn cellulite or fat.
Mesotherapy can be a single ingredient, such as hyaluronic acid injections, or a customized cocktail of cosmetic agents injected into the targeted areas, promoting skin hydration, firmness, and overall revitalization.
