The meso cocktail is injected into certain areas of the face, body, and scalp, solving a specific problem: rejuvenation, improving the quality of the dermis, tightening the oval, eliminating skin problems or hair loss, preventing aging. This is a safe and quick way to rejuvenate the face and body without plastic surgery, restore skin tone, and restore metabolic processes in the cells of the dermis.
The advantage of the procedure is that it allows the cosmetologist to work not with the upper, but with the deeper, middle layer of the skin. Medicines and nutrients are delivered to places where the active components of conventional cosmetics - creams, serums, masks - are unable to penetrate. The cosmetologist creates meso-cocktails individually, taking into account age, skin condition, and goals. The active components of the drugs rejuvenate, restore skin health, and prevent age-related changes.
There are two main methods of performing mesotherapy: injection and non-injection. In the first case, a therapeutic and prophylactic cocktail is introduced into the dermis using microinjections. In the second, the drug is delivered to the cells using a hardware method. The method of rejuvenation without injections is gaining increasing popularity.
Non-injection mesotherapy
The traditional injection method of mesotherapy is not suitable for all women. It causes physical and psychological discomfort to people with a low pain threshold, requires some time for the skin to recover after injections, and if the procedure is performed incorrectly, it can cause complications.
Non-injection mesotherapy is a successful alternative to “beauty injections”. The method is innovative because highly effective hardware technologies are used to introduce anti-aging and therapeutic drugs into the dermis. No injections or pain - this is what attracts women to the needle-free technique.
The question arises: how do the components of the mesococktail penetrate the epidermis? Will non-injection facial mesotherapy be as effective as the traditional rejuvenation method? It will be thanks to the use of modern technologies and the active search for new cosmetological solutions.
Instead of a needle, at the tip of which drugs enter the dermis during conventional mesotherapy, the tip of a manipulator is used - the attachment of a cosmetology device. The permeability of cell membranes increases hundreds of times, thanks to which the dermis easily accepts the active substances of the mesococktail. Skin regeneration processes are launched, cellular metabolism is restored, and the skin regains its lost tone.
Post-procedure care and contraindications
No rehabilitation required. But to get maximum results, cosmetologists recommend not visiting a sauna or bathhouse for 2-3 days, avoiding active ultraviolet radiation, and refusing to drink alcoholic beverages.
Mesotherapy without injections has a number of contraindications. These are inflammatory processes, general poor health, cancer diagnoses, pregnancy and a tendency to allergic reactions.
If you are not yet ready for serious injection methods of care, then the ideal option is hardware mesotherapy. The price depends on the composition of the cocktail, the type of device, and the number of sessions required. For more information, contact the BL Clinic.
Devices for non-injection mesotherapy
Several types of cosmetic devices are used to deliver active substances from meso-cocktails to the dermis.
- Cryogenic devices.
- Lasers.
- Ultrasound devices.
- Magnetic devices.
- Ion emitters.
Using different physical and chemical processes, they all solve one problem: to repeatedly increase the permeability of the skin barrier so that the molecules of the rejuvenating or healing serum can penetrate through the epidermis into the cells of the middle and deep layers of the skin. As a result, they get the opportunity to join the physiological processes of the body, stimulating the production of their own elastin and collagen fibers, accelerating metabolic processes, improving blood flow, etc.
Professional devices provide several types of influences. This is convenient when developing an individual skin rejuvenation or treatment regimen.
Hardware mesotherapy: how it works
The basic scheme that all cosmetologists adhere to includes 3 stages:
- Preparation - inspection, identifying the problem and determining the composition of the required cocktail. Cleansing the skin of cosmetics and dead cells.
- The active influence stage is the application of a mesotherapy solution to the problem area and exposure to the device.
- Finish with the application of a sedative.
In rare cases, slight redness may occur, but it goes away on its own after 2-3 hours.
Types of hardware influence
Depending on the attachment used, the hardware effect during non-injection mesotherapy varies.
- Cryomesotherapy effects are based on a combination of low temperatures and weak waves of electric current. This type of procedure is called cryolifting because of the obvious facelift effect after the first procedure.
- Laser mesotherapy significantly improves the quality of the skin, as it normalizes blood supply, microcirculation, and helps the dermis retain nutrients. The laser beam in combination with hyaluronic acid provides a double effect: visual rejuvenation and a clear oval of the face.
- Ultrasonic waves in the phonophoresis procedure act as a transporter of mesococktail nutrients. After the procedure, the skin retains increased permeability for several hours. This feature can be used to apply an active mask.
- Magnetic waves in combination with highly active serums are used in several microcurrent mesotherapy procedures: electroporation, magnetophoresis, iontophoresis, hydromesotherapy. The skin receives additional stimulation, blood vessels are strengthened, and metabolism in the affected area improves.
The procedures do not cause discomfort and provide the desired rejuvenation effect from the first session. To enhance it, you can combine non-injection facial mesotherapy with hyaluronic acid injections. This option is preferable for women after 40 years of age, when the ability to produce collagen gradually decreases.
Needle-free facial mesotherapy is indicated for the following problems:
- expression wrinkles;
- dull color and decreased elasticity of the skin;
- acne;
- pigmentation;
- acne scars;
- enlarged pores;
- rosacea;
- bags, bruises under the eyes.
The main advantage is that the surface of the skin is not injured, and therefore there are no redness, wounds or scars after the procedure. Painlessness and the absence of a recovery period distinguishes this treatment from other more aggressive cosmetic procedures with a lifting effect.
Existing contraindications
Hardware mesotherapy has some contraindications. Therefore, before starting the procedures, it is necessary to discuss the existing problems with the cosmetologist.
Important ! You should not do mesotherapy if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. This procedure is also prohibited if you have any diseases from the following list:
- diseases of the immune system;
- oncological diseases;
- infectious diseases;
- dermatological diseases in the intended treatment area;
Skin diseases are considered a contraindication to the procedureSkin diseases are considered a contraindication to the procedure - diabetes mellitus;
- period of exacerbation of chronic diseases;
- cholelithiasis in acute form;
In case of cholelithiasis, the procedure is contraindicated - open injuries and damage to the skin of the face;
- allergy to the drug.
Using portable devices
All of the above types of mesotherapy are carried out by specialists in beauty salons. The cost of the procedures is not very small, so many women want to carry out this procedure at home. To do this, you need to have a mesoscooter device or another similar one. The active ingredient used is hyaluronic acid. It is advisable to perform manipulations in the evening so that the skin recovers overnight after the procedure.
Portable devices are quite popular today
There are many devices for carrying out such a procedure. There are devices that are used only in salons. There are also devices that are designed for home use.
Important ! In salons, the French-made device “Gezatone m9900” is most often used. With its help you can carry out a whole range of cosmetic procedures. The gas-liquid device “Young-in Oxygen Peel 028” made in the USA is also quite popular.
"Gezatone m9900"
For home use, the English “Young-in HYDRO” apparatus is often purchased.
Possible side effects
Hardware mesotherapy is characterized by the fact that complications after it are very rare. Phenomena such as skin redness and swelling disappear quickly. They appear as a natural reaction to exposure to a laser, magnetic field or ultrasound.
Complications after procedures may appear due to the unprofessionalism of the cosmetologist who performs it. Also, such reasons include non-compliance with hygienic and aseptic rules for its implementation, and failure to take into account the presence of contraindications.
Lack of professionalism of a cosmetologist is the main reason for complications
To decide on hardware mesotherapy, it is necessary to evaluate the chosen clinic and the professionalism of the staff.
Important ! If an experienced cosmetologist does not see the need for these procedures, you need to listen to his opinion.
Possible complications:
- the appearance of various allergic reactions;
- infection on inflamed facial skin;
- possible changes in skin structure;
- post-traumatic lymphostasis.
As a rule, complications resolve on their own within a few days.
Composition of meso cocktails
Substances that are part of cosmetic products have a rejuvenating effect on the skin during procedures. They renew and restore skin cells.
Important ! The result of the procedure is immediate. Hardware mesotherapy does not leave any marks on the skin.
Substances in meso-cocktails help “renew” the skin
The composition of the meso-cocktail is selected for each patient individually. It all depends on the initial condition of the skin and the expected result. The choice of components should be made not by the patient, but by the cosmetologist.
There is no standardized composition of the meso cocktail
What substances are used to make the healing cocktail?
- Hyaluronic acid . This substance is the main component of skin care cosmetics. It retains moisture in the cells and also activates the formation of collagen and elastin. Therefore, after exposure to hyaluronic acid, the skin becomes firm and elastic.
- Glycolic acid. This is a real “rejuvenating” substance. In its natural state, it is found in large quantities in cane and fresh fruits. Its molecular weight is very small, so the molecules easily penetrate the layers of the skin, which is very important for non-injection mesotherapy. Glycolic acid accelerates the formation of new cells, as well as the removal of dead ones. In addition, this substance has antioxidant properties. Mesotherapy with hyaluronic and glycolic acid leads to the complete smoothing of small wrinkles and a decrease in the depth of large ones.
Glycolic acid is responsible for skin rejuvenation - Vitamins. Vitamins and microelements are of great importance for the condition of the skin. Their lack leads to the formation of pigmentation, deterioration of the natural skin color, and the appearance of premature wrinkles. Vitamins are necessary for skin regeneration, renewal and respiration. Minerals are responsible for the correctness of metabolic processes in cells and strengthening the immune system.
Vitamins are important for skin - Other components . The cosmetologist selects the components of the meso-cocktail in accordance with the skin problems and the problems that need to be solved. In addition to the main substances, its composition may include various medications, plant extracts, collagen, amino acids and more.
