MESOTHERAPY

 

Mesotherapy and skin boosters are non-surgical injectable treatments designed to rejuvenate the skin. They involve delivering a blend of vitamins, hyaluronic acid, amino acids, and other nutrients directly into the skin to hydrate, stimulate collagen production, and improve skin quality.

Mesotherapy is a technique that uses injections of vitamins, enzymes, hormones, and plant extracts to rejuvenate and tighten skin, as well as remove excess fat.

Michel Pistor, a doctor in France, developed the technique in 1952. It was originally used to relieve pain. In the years since, it has gained popularity in the United States and other parts of the world.

​

The procedure enables a bespoke combination of powerful vitamins, minerals, and hyaluronic acid to be injected into the lower layers of your skin. Using a personalised blend of nutrients, combined with cutting-edge micro-needling technology, mesotherapy treatments can help trigger the production of new collagen for fresh, younger-looking skin.

​

The injections used in this treatment can be an ideal solution where other methods prove ineffective. Mesotherapy also helps to:

• Encourage cell growth

• Improve circulation

• Improve hydration

• Stimulate the production of collagen

• Face

• Neck

• Hands

• Stretch marks

• Dry, flaky skin​

• Loose, ageing skin

• Hair loss

• Dark circles around the eyes

• Sun-damaged skin

Unlike dermal fillers that add volume to specific areas, mesotherapy and skin boosters focus on improving overall skin quality by enhancing hydration, elasticity, and texture. They provide subtle, natural-looking results without altering facial contours.

Each product offers slightly different benefits for specific skin concerns. A consultation with Dr. Aguilar is essential to assess your individual needs and ensure the chosen treatment delivers the results you want.

- Sunekos combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin elasticity and reducing fine lines.

- Profhilo is a high-concentration hyaluronic acid treatment that hydrates and tightens the skin, addressing skin laxity.

- Viscoderm Hydroboosters are designed to deeply hydrate the skin, enhancing its appearance and texture.

- Plinest (polynucleotides) are derived from salmon DNA and stimulate fibroblasts, promoting collagen production and improving skin elasticity.

Typically, a series of 2 or 3 treatments spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Maintenance treatments may be advised every 3 to 6 months, depending on individual skin needs and treatment type.

Most patients experience minimal downtime. Some redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites may occur but usually subsides within a few hours to a day.

Initial improvements in skin hydration and texture can be noticed within a few days. However, optimal results usually require a course of treatments, with follow-up maintenance sessions recommended to sustain long-term benefits.

Yes, these treatments are suitable for all skin types and there are a number of options that can be tailored to address specific concerns such as fine lines, dullness, or sagging.

Side effects are rare but may include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. Serious complications are uncommon when performed by a qualified professional like Dr. Aguilar.

A personalized consultation with Dr. Aguilar will assess your skin condition, concerns, and aesthetic goals to determine the most suitable treatment plan.

This depends on what you’re having treated; some patients can expect to see results after the first session, though many will be expected to attend two to three mesotherapy sessions before results are visible. Hyaluronic acid is quick to show a difference as this adds volume to the skin. Injections of vitamins and minerals or polynucleotides require multiple sessions and are longer to take effect as these work to improve the quality of the skin from within.
