What is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy is a method that uses injections of vitamins, enzymes, hormones and plant extracts to revitalize and tighten the skin, while also removing excess fat.
Michel Pistor, a doctor in France, developed the technique in 1952. It was initially used to relieve pain. In the years that followed, it gained popularity in the United States and other parts of the world.

Measures such as local anesthetic creams or cooling devices can help reduce pain. Side effects such as redness or swelling may occur after the procedure, but usually resolve soon.
