Mesotherapy is not a product name but the name given to an application method. Mesotherapy, can be described as the injection of the product to be applied into the skin with a thin needle in small quantities in large numbers. Although it is most commonly applied to the face, it can be applied to many parts of the body for different reasons. It is used alone or in combination with various mini-invasive cosmetic procedures in skin renewal (rejuvenation), acne and other scar removal, hair loss treatment, reduction of crack appearance and cellulite treatment. It can be used in body areas such as chin, arms-legs, inner face and abdomen in order to thin the fat tissue. Mesotherapy products can be very diverse. They usually consist of substances such as vitamins, minerals, free hyaluronic acid, antioxidants and proteins.

The patient should first be evaluated by a dermatologist in terms of suitability for mesotherapy, and other diseases and medications used should be questioned. It is important to take an allergy history, as allergic reactions to the substances used may occur, although rarely.

HAIR MESOTHERAPY

The most common types of hair loss in society are telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia. In addition to medical treatment, minimally invasive dermatological procedures such as mesotherapy and PRP can be applied. The decision to apply should definitely be made after being examined by a dermatologist. Mesotherapy may not be effective in your type of hair loss, and in irreversible hair loss types, which we call cicatricial alopecia, shedding may increase much more because your diagnosis is delayed. Mesotherapy prevents hair loss by providing the necessary vitamins, minerals and nutrients in the scalp of people experiencing hair loss. The method accelerates cell metabolism, eliminates infections and significantly increases the speed of blood circulation in the scalp. In the mesotherapy method, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and various other substances are injected 2-3 mm below the scalp using very thin needles. It is expected that hair loss will decrease and existing hair strands will thicken.
