Mesotherapy – active ingredients directly into the skin

What is it and what is it for?

In mesotherapy, individually composed cocktails of active ingredients – vitamins, amino acids, minerals and non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid – are delivered directly into the upper layers of the skin through many fine micro-injections. Where creams cannot reach. The result: hydrated, revitalised skin with a fresh glow.

How does the treatment work?

After cleansing and optional numbing cream, many superficial micro-injections are placed across the treatment area. The session takes around 20 to 30 minutes and most patients find it easily tolerable.

When will you see the result?

A fresher complexion often shows within a few days; the full effect builds over a course – usually three to four sessions two to four weeks apart, followed by maintenance as needed.

What should you expect afterwards?

What to bear in mind

Who is it not suitable for?

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, infections or active skin conditions in the treatment area, and known allergies to the ingredients – we discuss the composition beforehand.

Good to know

Mesotherapy is not a volume treatment – it is skincare at a medical level. Ideal as a complement to other treatments, or as a gentle introduction to aesthetic medicine.
