Mesotherapy
What is mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy is a non-invasive aesthetic treatment that involves the application of microinjections containing vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other active ingredients directly into the skin.
These microinjections act on three different levels:
Cellular: Stimulate adipocytes to release stored fat.
Vascular: Improve local and systemic microcirculation.
Lymphatic: Enhance lymphatic drainage to eliminate accumulated toxins.
Mesotherapy is commonly used to reduce cellulite and localized fat deposits, as it acts directly on adipose tissue, helping to release excess fat and toxins from the body.
This procedure is ideal for improving skin hydration, firmness, and radiance, as well as for combating signs of aging such as wrinkles and sagging.
Benefits of mesotherapy
Reduction of cellulite and localized fat: Helps dissolve fat deposits and diminish cellulite, improving body contour.
Deep hydration: Provides nutrients and hydration directly to the deeper layers of the skin, enhancing its texture and glow.
Collagen and elastin stimulation: Encourages collagen and elastin production, essential for firm and elastic skin.
Skin rejuvenation: Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Customized treatment: Tailored to each patient’s specific needs; whether for rejuvenation, hydration, or fat reduction.
Quick recovery: Minimally invasive procedure with little to no downtime, allowing patients to resume normal activities immediately.
How is the mesotherapy procedure performed?
The mesotherapy procedure involves a series of microinjections that deliver a personalized blend of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other actives directly into the dermis — the middle layer of the skin.
These injections are distributed in the targeted areas such as the face, neck, décolletage, or areas with cellulite or localized fat. The practitioner uses ultra-fine needles to minimize discomfort, and each session lasts between 20 and 40 minutes depending on the treatment area.
The number of sessions required varies according to individual needs. Mesotherapy is minimally invasive, and patients can return to daily activities almost immediately. Results are progressive, with visible improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall health after each session.

In mesotherapy procedures, anesthesia is generally not required, as the microinjections are performed with very fine needles and cause minimal discomfort. However, to enhance patient comfort, a topical anesthetic cream may sometimes be applied to the treatment areas before the procedure. This cream is typically left on for about 20 to 30 minutes to minimize any potential discomfort during the injections. Since mesotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment, the need for anesthesia is minimal and adapted to the patient’s tolerance.
In some cases, depending on the patient’s preferences and the surgeon’s recommendation, general anesthesia may also be used. At Cliniq, our anesthesiologists evaluate each case individually to determine the most appropriate type of anesthesia, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience.
Recovery from mesotherapy is generally quick and straightforward, as it is a minimally invasive treatment. After the procedure, it is common to experience redness, mild swelling, or small bruises in the treated areas, but these effects typically resolve within a few hours or days.
Patients can resume their daily activities immediately, although it is recommended to avoid direct sun exposure and intense physical activity for the first 24 to 48 hours. Maintaining good hydration and following the doctor’s instructions will help ensure optimal recovery and maximize treatment results.
Mesotherapy causes no significant downtime. Patients can return to their normal activities almost immediately after the treatment. Although mild redness, swelling, or small bruises may appear in the treated areas, these side effects are temporary and generally do not interfere with daily routines. No rest time or major lifestyle adjustments are required, making mesotherapy a convenient option for those looking to improve their skin’s appearance without interrupting their regular activities.
Post-treatment recommendations for mesotherapy are essential to ensure a quick recovery and maximize results:
Avoid direct sun exposure: During the first 24 to 48 hours, it is advisable to avoid direct sunlight on treated areas to prevent irritation or hyperpigmentation. If exposure is necessary, applying sunscreen is essential.
Stay well hydrated: Drinking plenty of water and keeping the skin moisturized helps speed up recovery and enhance treatment results.
Avoid intense physical activity: For the first 24 to 48 hours, avoid strenuous exercise or activities that cause excessive sweating to reduce the risk of irritation or infection.
Do not massage treated areas: Unless instructed by your doctor, avoid massaging or pressing the treated areas during the first few days after the procedure.
Follow your doctor’s instructions: Apply any prescribed creams or products as directed to optimize results and recovery.
Monitor the skin: If you experience any adverse reaction or unusual symptoms, such as severe pain, contact your doctor for evaluation.
