Mesotherapy

Despite popular belief, mesotherapy is not the same as fat - dissolving injections.  Mesotherapy is a technique of injection of medication, or another substance under the skin.  The idea is that the medications are absorbed via subdermal plexus and produce specific result, like reduction of inflammation, not necessarily related to cosmetic surgery at all.

Mesotherapy - Modern Snake Oil

Mesotherapy is a term applied to the process of injecting something under the skin with the hope to "dissolve away" fat. It is not FDA approved, and has not been proven to work. The "stuff" that is being injected is a cocktail of other agents that are approved for use on humans (hopefully!) but not specifically for Mesotherapy. There are no standard formulations, so even if you were to try and purchase a Mesotherapy treatment, you would have no way to know how much to... more

Mesotherapy: Wait and proceed with caution!

As a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, I must say that our society as a whole does not endorse this therapy and there are no current FDA regulations regarding the chemicals utilized in Mesotherapy.

Mesotherapy may cost you more than money can fix

I have seen the results of mesotherapy, and it wasn't pretty! The results-divots, high points, unaesthetic results, that required surgery to improve but not fix. This procedure is too unpredictible for me to recommend.  Don't do this.  Really, don't do it. On second thouight, don't do it.

Wait!

I do not recommend it and I warn against it. Patients that I have seen after the therapy have all been unhappy with the results.

If you're interested in getting rid of the trouble areas, do what is proven to be effective and has a higher saftety index—liposuction. Hope that helps.

Until the proper scientific studies have been performed and until appropriate safety information and guidelines have been established and until Mesotherapy or Lipodissolve has been FDA approved - don't do it!  Either lose the fat with diet and exercise or have liposuction.
