Mesotherapy
Collagen Induction
If you are looking for that lift-from-within glow, then this is the treatment for you!
Mesotherapy is a non-surgical rejuvenation treatment that is achieved by a needling procedure and is used in anti-ageing therapies, including pigmentation, hydration, scarring, acne and general rejuvenation.
The antioxidants and vitamins in the injections help to stimulate the cells to produce collagen and elastin. Many contents like hyaluronic acrid in the meso-solutions trigger the production of new collagen in the skin, giving it a youthful and fresh look.
The benefits of Mesotherapy:
- stimulates collagen production
- smooths wrinkles and fine lines
- improves symmetry of the face
- improves the texture of the skin
This treatment is ideal for all skin types, is very comfortable and requires no ‘downtime’ so you can return straight to normal activities. Depending on the blend of nutrients, Facial Mesotherapy will give the skin intense and long-lasting hydration, by rejuvenating the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production.
How many treatments will I need?
We find the best results are achieved by spacing the treatments 2 weeks apart, for a maximum of 6 sessions initially.
The number of facial mesotherapy sessions you will require depends on the skin condition that you want treating. We usually recommend 6 sessions 2-4 weeks apart, in order to achieve your desired results. However, it's not unusual to see significant results just after only one session.
Can I wear makeup after my treatment?
We advise keeping your face clear of makeup for 24 hours following treatment.
Will it hurt?
Some people find it a little uncomfortable but not painful. You may also find that your skin could be a little red after the treatment but that will soon disappear.
How long does it take to see results from mesotherapy?
Benefits from each injection should be evident within three weeks of the treatment. Several treatments, 4-6 weeks apart, are often required to produce a fully satisfactory result.
How long does Mesotherapy last?
Mesotherapy for skin rejuvenation is generally given in a course of treatments with results lasting between 3-5 months. Top up treatments will be required to maintain the results.
What should I avoid after Mesotherapy?
Saunas, spas and massages are NOT recommended for 48 hours after treatment. AFTER 48 hours, hot baths or showers are recommended to assist in the healing. Avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds or heat for about two weeks after undergoing this procedure.
You must also avoid exercising or strenuous activity for the first 24 hours post-treatment. Care should be taken to prevent irritation/trauma to the treated area.
For the first 72 hours following your treatment only clean your face with lukewarm water and a gentle cleanser. Gently dry your skin with a clean towel and do not use any powered cleansing brushes for at least a week after your treatment.
A low carbohydrate, high protein diet for 72 hours after treatment is also best. Avoid potatoes and bread.
Does mesotherapy have side effects?
Like anything, everyone has different reactions to anything new, especially as it is introduced to their body.
​
In mild cases, there can be a rash on skin surface, some bruising, skin swelling, skin sensitivity, itching and burning sensation on the skin.
​
In more severe cases, reactions can include nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
Do I need to do anything to prepare before I visit you?
Try and avoid alcohol the night before the session as this can lead to an increased blood flow in your body, which can have a negative or harmful effect on your treatment.

BB GLOW MESOTHERAPY… IT’S A GAME CHANGER
​
HOW DOES IT WORK?
BB Glow Mesotherapy is a semi permanent treatment using the latest technology to come straight out of Korea. BB Glow uses a Micro Needle Therapy System (MTS) combining skin coloured pigment with niacinamide and peptides along with natural growth factors for effective brightening and anti-ageing benefits leaving fine lines and wrinkles plumped, pores diminished and skin with a tinted glow similar to that of a tinted moisturiser that lasts up to 4 months.
​
BB Glow is recommended for both Men and Women with dark skin tones and for the reduction of freckles, age spots, redness and acne induced skin discoloration on lighter skin tones.
HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?
If you're having a one off treatment or the first treatment of a course, allow 120 minutes as this includes dermaplaning or microdermabrasion first to remove 2-3 weeks of dead skin to increase product penetration. For following treatments in a course allow up to 90 minutes.

FAQs
​
Will it hurt?
This is generally a very comfortable treatment as it’s superficial micro-needling however some tightness and tingling after treatment is totally normal.
Is there any downtime?
No you can go back to day to day life however the BB Glow serums that look like a foundation should be left on the skin for 24 hours and can look a bit shiny. Powder make up can be added after 6 hours. Your skin may feel a little dry a few days after treatment this is the skins natural inflammatory response to micro-needling
How many treatments are required?
This is a great stand alone treatment especially for a one off event or a weekend away however for long term results lasting up to 4 months we recommend building up coverage over a course of 3-4 treatments, 7-10 days apart.
