Mesotherapy Clinic Delhi
Mesotherapy was accidentally
discovered by a French doctor- Dr. Michael Pistor in 1952. It is
now getting its due recognition as efficacious treatment for
many health problems. In 1987 French Academy of Medicine
recognized Mesotherapy as inherent part of traditional medicine
and since then it has become part of curriculum in general
medicine in France. In France approx 15000 doctors use
mesotherapy in their daily practice. All around the world it is
becoming a trend now and doctors in different field and
especially those in sport traumatology and aesthetic medicine
are acquiring this technique to help their patients.
Not to have left behind in this scene – Empathy
took the lead.The doctors working here made several trips to
France to bring this technology to India and The Clinic is
credited to be the first Clinic to introduce Mesotherapy in
India.
What is Mesotherapy?
The word "Mesotherapy" means treatment that stimulate mesoderm.
The definition given by Dr. Pistor is " The practice of
injecting little amount of medications, not very often into the
mesoderm at right spot" Like in sport medicine –amount injected
of NSAID drugs is 60 times less then the traditionally orally
ingested medicine over 8 days period. This leads to more
efficiency of drug with least side effects. Mesotherapy also
gives opportunity to combine two or three active medications in
single injection.
How it is Done?
Using a very tiny needle (0.4 to 0.6 cm or the size of an
eyelash), the medication is injected into the mesoderm
painlessly. Sometimes the technique of "multi-pricking" is used,
where a number of swift, painless injections are concentrated in
a specific area. Although "multi-pricking" can be done by hand,
we at Delhi Aesthetic Clinic offer a mechanical delivery system
with a device called Mesogun that delivers the medicine in a
more accurate fashion with even less discomfort to the patient.
Patients have universally reported that the treatments cause
less pain than a momentary, light pinch.
Medications used in Mesothorapy
Nutrition: polyvitamins, hyaluronic acid,
microtrace elements etc.
Metabolic stimulation : glycolic acid and
rectinoic acid.
Enzymatic enhancement : collagenase &
hyaluronidase.
Fat dissolution : phosphatidylcholine and/or
deoxycholate.
Myofibrillar relaxation : Dimetylaminoethanol (
Dmae ).
Indication for Mesotherapy:
Mesotherapy has a variety of medical uses. Treatment can benefit
those patients suffering from muscle spasm, stress, insomnia,
carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, reflex sympathetic
dystrophy, osteoarthritis, migraine, and infection. Such a wide
variety of conditions can be treated with this technique as each
treatment is formulated to meet each patient’s unique problem.
As Mesotherapy is administered only into the problem area, many
side effects of taking oral medication are avoided.
Uses in Aesthetic (Cosmetic) Medicine
1. Body Contouring.
2. Cellulite Reduction.
3. Hair Restoration.
4. Face & Neck Rejuvenation.
5. Facial Pigmentation.
6. Eye bags.
7. Double Chin.
Body Contouring:
Contouring of the abdomen, arms, back, legs and total body can
be obtained with mesotherapy. Lipodissolve agents are used to
remove areas of fat by block the internal signal of fat uptake,
trigger fat release inprove circulation, and burn energy, while
vitamins and amino acids are used to tighten sagging skin,
restore a more youthful and athletic appearance.
Many patients develop unevenness, divots, or lumps after
undergoing liposuction. These areas can be successfully treated
with Mesotherapy. The scar tissue that forms under the skin
after liposuction is directly targeted and dissolved. Patients
see and feel smoothing of divots and lumps, and the unevenness
resolves.
Cellulite Reduction:
The medical term of cellulite is "dermatomyoliposclerosis".
Cellulite affects the majority of women over the 20. It is
caused by poor circulation, fat herniation weakening of
connective tissue, lymphatic congestion, and hormonal imbalance.
Cellulite is not a disease of over weight. It appears in the
subcutaneous level of skin tissue. Fat cells are arranged in
chambers surrounded by connective tissue called sepatae. As
water retained, fat cells held within the perimeters of this
area expand and stretch the connective tissue. Eventually this
connective tissue contracts and hardens (scelerosis) holding the
skin at a non-flexible length, while the surrounding tissue
continues to expand with weight or water gain. This result in
areas of the skin being held down while other sections bulge
outward, resulting in lumpy, orange peel appearance.
It can be divided into 4 clinical
stages:-
Stage 0 no visible cellulite, even when skin
pricked or compress
Stage 1 no visible cellulite when standing or
lying down, however present when skin is pricked or compressed.
Stage 2 visible cellulite when standing, but
not appear when lying down
Stage 3 visible all time.
Mesotherapy treatment is targeted to correct these problems by
improving circulation, strengthening, connective tissues, remove
fibro tic & hardening connective tissue, improve lymphatic
drainage, and dissolve excess fat.
Hair Restoration :
Hair loss affects both affects both men and women. I6t's
resulted from poor circulation, nutritional imbalances and in
men the excess of a hormone known as DHT (dihydrotestosterone)
Mesotherapy can correct these problems, by stimulating scalp to
naturally grow the lost hair.
Face and neck rejuvenation / mesolift:
Aging, sagging and wrinkling of the skin occurs from
accumulation of fat, loss or skin elasticity, and excessive free
radical damage. Infusing potent antioxidants and amino acids by
mesotherapy into dermis at level of contact with cellular matrix
can reverse free radical damage, and tightening the loose skin.
It can rejuvenate and revitalize the skin of face and neck
without the unnatural appearance and downtime recovery period.
People who have had a "Mesolift" describe their skin as firm,
radiant, youthful and glowing. The Mesolift is usually performed
in an initial series of 2-4 treatments spaced a week apart.
Results are maintained by twice a year touch up sessions.
Mesotherapy skin rejuvenation is a wonderful compliment to any
of the other skin treatments we offer including, photo
rejuvenation, chemical peels, BOTOX® and dermal fillers. But it
also stands on it's own as a powerful anti-aging therapy.
Facial Pigmentation:
Facial pigmentation like Melasma ,post inflammatory
pigmentation(following aggressive treatment with chemical and
Lasers),Black discoloration around eyes and pigmentation due to
sun damage can be effectively controlled by using specific
mesotherapy solutions. The effect of these medicines is
virtually dramatic.
Eye Bags:
For the problem of buldging fat under the eyes Mesotherapy
provides a very effective to surgical treatment called
Blepharoplasty.
Double Chin:
Infection lipolysis by mesotherapy using different fat dissolve
solution treayts double chin effectively.The results are very
quick in these cases since area to be treated is small.The
combination of medicaments to tighten the skin together witgh
lipolysis agent further compliments the treatment.
What is the treatment protocol?
For cellulite, weight loss, and spot weight reduction, the
medications are injected directly to the areas being treated.
Treatments are administered weekly, and patients usually begin
seeing results by the fourth treatment. After 10 treatments,
patients see a significant decrease in size, improved skin tone,
and smoothing of cellulite. Typically patients lose 4 to 10
inches in 10 weeks.
For facial rejuvenation weekly injections are given and usually
4-5 treatment sare sufficient to get the desired results.
Side effects and restrictions
Side effects of the procedure may be a possible reddening,
swelling and/or bruising around the area of the injections.
These symptoms generally disappear in a matter of hours.
Mesotherapy is generally suitable for most people, including
children and those with diabetes. There are no age restrictions.
General restrictions vary with conditions treated and will be
discussed before treatments are administered. You can not wear
makeup for four hours after Mesotherapy. You can not vigorously
exercise for 48 hours. No hot showers are allowed for 6 to 8
hours after treatments. It is also recommended to eat a meal
high in protein prior to treatment. Mesotherapy will make you
look 10-15 years younger!

WHAT IS MESOTHERAPY?
Mesotherapy has been used in Europe since 1952 when it was developed
by the French physician Dr. Michel Pistor for pain management. It is
the injection of a mixture of FDA approved medications, vitamins and
minerals into the mesoderm, the layer of fat and connective tissue
just under your skin. This mixture will differ depending on the
condition and area being treated. Mesotherapy has a number of
medical applications that include weight loss, spot body contouring,
face and neck rejuvenation and cellulite reduction..
• HOW DOES MESOTHERAPY
WORK?
The mixture of medications used in Mesotherapy melts the fat beneath
the skin and shrinks the deeper fat cells. Once the fat has been
dissolved, it is absorbed into the bloodstream where it is carried
away and removed from the body through the kidneys. The formula of
medications is used to treat cellulite, destroy the connective
tissues that cause the dimpling effect and dissolve fat cells that
are trapped. This results in a smooth, dimple-free appearance.
• WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS IN MESOTHERAPY
INJECTIONS?
The mesotherapy injection is a solution of various vitamins,
minerals, enzymes, plant extracts, amino acids, anesthetics, and
medications. The makeup of the solution varies depending on the
needs of the patient and the desired effect while allowing for a
greater level of safety when issues such as drug interactions and
allergies exist.
• ARE THE TREATMENTS PAINFUL?
The majority of patients experience minimal discomfort. For those
who have discomfort, a topical anesthetic cream can be utilized 45
minutes prior to the procedure. Ice can also be applied prior to or
after the procedure if necessary.
• HOW LONG DO THE
TREATMENTS LAST?
Patients can maintain their results as long as they stay on a
healthy diet and continue to exercise. Cellulite may require
maintenance treatments every three to six months.
• THE PROCEDURE
Mesotherapy can actually melt away unwanted localized deposits of
fat cells. During the procedure your doctor uses a very tiny needle
(about the size of an eyelash) to painlessly make multiple
injections into the targeted area. For overall weight loss your
doctor may inject larger areas. When treating cellulite, one
formulation of medications may be used to dissolve the fat and
another to destroy the fibrous bands that bind the skin. Treatments
vary from three to ten sessions, one to four weeks apart.
• HOW SOON WILL I SEE
RESULTS?
That depends on the area being treated. 6-10 treatments are
recommended. Some patients see results after two or three
treatments, while others require ten treatments before they are
satisfied. Fat loss with Mesotherapy is a gradual process. The
results are not immediate, as with liposuction.
• WILL THE RESULTS LAST?
It must not be forgotten that the effect of most procedures,
although long-lasting, may fade with time. The results for each
individual may vary. It is recommended to schedule a
maintenance treatment every 3 months. For localized fat
removal to be permanent requires the patient to maintain their
weight. A regular exercise regime, including cardio and resistance
training and the implementation of a healthy diet, that places
emphasis on lean protein and low G.I carbohydrates, will assist
patients in maintaining results.
• WHAT ABOUT SIDE
EFFECTS?
Side effects are limited because Mesotherapy is delivered directly
to the target area. This reduces the possibility of drug
interactions, and reduces the amount of medication required for each
procedure. Localized bruising is common. We suggest you discontinue
blood thinners before your treatment.
• HOW LONG IS THE “DOWN TIME” AND RECOVERY TIME?
There is no down time or recovery time for this procedure. The
patient will be back to regular activities immediately.
• IS MESOTHERAPY SIMILAR
TO LIPOSUCTION?
With Mesotherapy, the fat is dissolved and removed painlessly from
the body. Mesotherapy is performed in a series of sessions with no
downtime. After Mesotherapy, the results can be measured in inches,
as about one pound per week can be melted away. Many patients can
lose as much as two dress sizes after only ten treatments. Patients
say the treatment is like a pinch or a bee sting. Some prefer to use
a local anesthetic cream applied thirty minutes prior to their
treatment. Mesotherapy is a non-invasive alternative supported
by a 1994-95 study on "topical fat reduction" by UCLA researchers.
This study concluded women who had Mesotherapy injections lost
weight even without diet or exercise. About 100 people a year die
because of liposuction, Mesotherapy has no deaths, stokes or heart
attacks.
• WHO IS SUITABLE FOR
MESOTHERAPY?
SMost healthy adults 18 to 80 may have Mesotherapy for body
sculpting, cellulite treatment, skin rejuvenation and alopecia. The
exclusion criteria as a guide follows but each patient must be
assessed individually to determine whether the exclusion criteria
apply for the treatment they seek.
• WHO IS UNSUITABLE FOR MESOTHERAPY?
Pregnancy, patients who are on blood thinners, insulin dependent
diabetics, patients with cancer or in remission, patients with AIDS,
patients, AIDS patients, patients with coronary artery heart disease
or heart dysfunction, People with arrhythmias, with a history of
blood clots or strokes, patients with autoimmune diseases or organ
transplant recipients and patients with skin conditions including:
herpes & psoriasis…
Mesotherapy is a technique, invented in 1952 by Dr. Michel
Pistor, where medication is injected into the mesoderm, the layer of
fat and connective tissue under the skin. Over the past 50+ years,
an excess of 15,000 physicians world-wide have used Mesotherapy on a
daily basis for a variety of purposes, including overall weight
loss, spot weight reduction, cellulite reduction, hair loss, scar
revision and wrinkle elimination. Mesotherapy is also used to
correct unevenness, lumps, or divots that develop after liposuction.
In 1987, the French Academy of Medicine recognized Mesotherapy as an
inherent part of traditional medicine. The International Society of
Mesotherapy encompasses 14 countries throughout Europe and South
America. Using a very tiny needle (0.4 to 0.6 cm or the size of an
eyelash), the medication is injected into the mesoderm painlessly.
Sometimes the technique of "multi-pricking" is used, where a number
of swift, painless injections are concentrated in a specific area.
Although "multi-pricking" can be done by hand, we at Mesotherapy
Associates offer a mechanical delivery system that delivers the
medicine in a more accurate fashion with even less discomfort to the
patient. Patients have universally reported that the treatments
cause less pain than a momentary, light pinch.
The medications that are used in Mesotherapy melt the fat beneath
the skin and shrink the fat cells in the Scarpa's fascia layer. The
fat dissolves and is excreted by the kidneys and the bowel without
any changes in your bowel habits.
Cellulite is caused by connective tissue bands that hold down the
skin, trapping the fat and thereby causing the "dimpling" effect.
The medications used in Mesotherapy destroy the connective tissue
bands and melt the trapped fat, creating a smooth, dimple-free
appearance.
In Mesotherapy, very small doses of different medications are
administered in specific areas, depending on the condition being
treated. The medicines and plant extracts that we use at are
obtained from local pharmaceutical companies in the United States .
All medicines used are FDA-approved for their use. In combination,
medicines for Mesotherapy are used for off-line purposes. A recent
illustration of this distinction is Botox. Although Botox is FDA
approved for controlling muscle spasms, the medical community
embraced it for its cosmetic properties of controlling wrinkles. For
many years, plastic surgeons and dermatologists have used Botox for
off-line purposes.
For cellulite, weight loss, and spot weight reduction, the
medications are injected directly to the areas being treated.
Treatments are administered weekly, and patients usually begin
seeing results by the fourth treatment. After 10 treatments,
patients see a significant decrease in size, improved skin tone, and
smoothing of cellulite. Typically patients lose 4 to 10 inches in 10
weeks.
Many patients develop unevenness, divots, or lumps after undergoing
liposuction. These areas can be successfully treated with
Mesotherapy. The scar tissue that forms under the skin after
liposuction is directly targeted and dissolved. Patients see and
feel smoothing of divots and lumps, and the unevenness resolves.
The combination of vitamins, herbal products and medication that is
injected is tailored specifically for each patient to optimize
results. Many factors are taken into consideration to determine the
most effective combination:
Genetics: A patient that has had cellulite since adolescence
responds differently than one who has developed cellulite more
recently.
- History of Liposuction: Specific medications are added for a
patient with a previous history of liposuction.
- Gender: The selection of herbal medications is determined by
the gender of the patient.
- Type of Fat: The combination of vitamins is guided by the
consistency of the tissue being treated. Softer fat is treated
differently than firm fat.
- Age: The age of the patient is taken into consideration in
order to formulate the most effective combination of
ingredients.
- Medical History: The patient's past medical history is
always thoroughly evaluated.
- Needle Free Mesotherapy is performed with the usual chemical
solutions, applied to the skin with an ultrasound device. This
eliminates the use of needles and results in a pain free
experience. Phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl choline with other
medications like L-Carnitine are applied to the surface of the
skin and penetrate into the mesoderm obviating the need for
needles in the mesotherapy treatment.

The lasting answer to Cellulite
CELLULITE
According to recent research, 95 percent of
women suffer from cellulite. Not that they're
the only ones. Less common perhaps, but men
suffer from it to.
So what is cellulite? Cellulite results from a
combination of fatty tissue and fluid retention.
Typically (although not exclusively) a female
problem, it can affect women of all ages
irrespective of their weight. In women, fat
cells on the lower part of the body store fat
six times more readily than those on the upper
body. They also release them six times less
readily. This makes weight loss from the lower
body almost impossible without the upper body
suffering unnecessarily. The answer?
Mesotherapy.
MESOTHERAPY
Originally a medical technique devised in 1958
by Frenchman Dr Michel Pistor to treat such
conditions as Rhumatology, Sports Traumatology,
Infectious diseases, Vascular diseases and the
improvement of circulation, Mesotherapy has
subsequently been extremely successful in the
treatment of aesthetic conditions.
Cellulite/Orange Peel Effect and Weight loss can
be effectively managed with the use of
Mesotherapy. The treatment stimulates the
mesoderm, or middle layer of the skin, which in
turn helps to disburse the cellulite.
THE TREATMENT
Mesotherapy involves injecting small amounts of
homeopathic medicine immediately beneath the
surface of the skin to break down the cellulite
and to improve circulation and lymphatic and
venous drainage. Each treatment takes about ten
minutes and is not painful. After the treatment
you can return to normal activities. The
addition of Vitamin C to the mixture encourages
the tone and quality of the overlying skin.
Treatment may be carried out immediately after
an initial consultation at which point you will
be informed as to how many treatments you will
require. Micro-injections are given twice a week
over a period of 4 to 8 weeks. Some individuals
may require a course of 4 weeks, although a full
treatment course takes 8 weeks. The treatment is
long lasting and the results measurable. When
the desired effects are achieved, all that is
required is annual maintenance over a 4-6 week
period. Superb results are achieved and those
being treated look and feel better both during
and after treatment. Overall, with a moderate
amount of lifestyle change, Mesotherapy can
provide measurable improvements with people
losing up to 2cm from the circumference of their
thighs after only 6 sessions. |
