What is cellulite?

Up to 95% per cent of British women suffer from cellulite. Even celebrities, who have access to the best health and diet advice in the world, are not immune. Young and old, underweight and overweight, all women are subject to cellulite and the problem only becomes worse with time. Gradually, the lumpy orange peel effect of cellulite becomes more pronounced.

Cellulite commonly appears on the hips, abdomen, buttocks and legs, but is not caused by being overweight, as many believe.

What is Mesotherapy?

Mesotherapy is a medical technique devised in 1952 by frenchman Dr Michel Pistor to improve circulation and to to treat conditions such as rheumatology, sports traumas, infectious and vascular diseases.

Mesotherapy has subsequently proved extremely successful for cellulite, fluid retention, lymphatic drainage, localised fat reduction and skin rejuvenation.

In France over 15,000 practitioners use mesotherapy for the care of their patients and it is a procedure that is taught in french medical schools and recognised by l’Académie de Médicine as an integrating part of traditional medicine.

The treatment stimulates the mesoderm, which is the layer of fat under the skin, which in turn helps to disperse the cellulite.

How does Mesotherapy work?

Mesotherapy involves injecting into the problematic localized area small amounts of specially prepared mixture of vitamins, homeopathic ingredients, amino acids and medications.

The injected mixture of mesoproducts stimulates the fat cells in the skin to break up the network of connective tissue fibres thus releasing excess of fat deposit and improving blood flow and lymphatic drainage in the treated area.

The dissolved fat is therefore excreted through the bloodstream by the kidneys and bowel.

How long does the treatment last?

Each treatment lasts about ten to twenty minutes and after the treatment you can return to normal activities. A course of six sessions is recommended.

What results should I expect?

Superb results can be achieved and those being treated look and feel better both during and after treatment. The treatment is long-lasting and the results are measurable. When the desired effects are attained, all that is required is annual maintenance over a four to six week period.

Are there any side effects?

Possible side effects of mesotherapy are small bruises which varnish in a few days and a little swelling in the injected area which remains for about 12-36 hours.

What is the cost?

£150 per session for one area.
£200 per session for two areas.
