“No noticable improvement - long periods of painful swelling”

Top clinic in Hollywood performed mesotherapy. Treatment produced long periods of swelling every time over about 6 weeks. The 'numbing cream' applied prior to each treatment barely worked but was charged at $100. Once swelling subsided (I was swollen and looked very large [fat] in knee area for the entire duration of treatment - abot 8 weeks) I experienced no noticable change in the tone and shape of knees. I think you will be disappointed. Save up for liposuction; don't go for this technique. This technique is just another gimmick IMO
