Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy delivers ingredients through small skin injections. Product choice, personal suitability, session planning and injection risks require assessment together.
Back to all servicesMesotherapy delivers selected ingredients into skin through small injections. Products may contain hyaluronic acid, vitamins or amino acids. However, mixtures differ. The product’s name and ingredients therefore matter as much as the procedure’s name.
You may be seeking options for dryness, fine lines or dullness. First, assess your skin and the cause. Also discuss medicines and allergies. A vitamin ingredient does not make an injection risk-free. Changes depend on the product, area and individual circumstances.
The eye-area aesthetic options guide introduces different approaches. For mesotherapy, assess the product and treatment area separately. Discuss alternatives, total cost and aftercare. Session numbers depend on individual needs.
What is this treatment?
Mesotherapy is not one medicine or a standard mixture. Some products contain hyaluronic acid; others have different compositions. Findings with one product therefore cannot apply to all mixtures.
The aim may involve hydration, fine lines or skin texture. However, lasting rejuvenation or increased collagen is not established for everyone. The eye area, face, neck and décolletage also need different assessments.
A clinical study of mesotherapy examined a specific mixture. Research needs interpretation alongside the product and method used.
Who may be suitable?
Dryness, dullness or fine lines may prompt an assessment. However, discuss everyday skin care and sun protection too. For example, dark circles may have causes other than loss of hydration.
Report active infection, inflamed skin or ingredient allergies. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, bleeding problems and medicines also affect suitability. Do not stop blood thinners on your own.
How is it performed?
- First, review your concern, skin characteristics and previous procedures.
- Then establish the exact product name, ingredients and suitability for the proposed area.
- If appropriate, the practitioner cleans the skin and uses numbing cream when needed.
- Small injections target the planned area. Microneedling is a separate technique, not the same procedure.
- Finally, discuss aftercare and follow-up. Duration depends on the area and preparation.
Recovery
Injection sites may develop tenderness, redness, small bumps or bruising. These effects may last for days. Therefore, allow time before an important event.
Avoid rubbing the area and follow cleansing advice. Also follow the recommended timing for makeup, exercise and hot environments. Discuss skin-care products according to your skin’s reaction. Not everyone can resume their usual routine the next day.
Risks and side effects
Mesotherapy carries risks of infection, allergic reactions, persistent lumps and pigmentation changes. Vitamin ingredients do not remove these risks. Product identity and clean treatment conditions are particularly important.
Seek medical help for increasing pain, warmth, spreading redness or discharge. Take fever seriously too. Sudden vision changes, breathing difficulty or rapidly increasing facial swelling require emergency care.
Consultation and follow-up
Op. Dr. Havva Gül Yıldız is an ophthalmologist. An eye-area consultation can address the eye surface and eyelid function alongside skin concerns. Also ask about the product’s ingredients and suitability near the eyes.
Include the option of no procedure in your discussion. Combining several applications does not by itself mean a better result.
