Mesotherapy in Eagan, Minnesota (MN)

Mesotherapy, also known as biorejuvenation, is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation technique to deliver tiny amounts of vitamins, essential oils, plant extracts, or medications into the skin through many small injections. Mesotherapy is meant to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, break down fat, and boost collagen growth in your facial skin for a more youthful appearance.

How mesotherapy is performed

Mesotherapy is a fast and nearly painless procedure that is commonly done in spas and homeopathy clinics.

Your dermatologist or skin care specialist will cleanse your face using rubbing alcohol and inject the mesotherapy solution into your skin using a small needle. The depth of the injections can vary depending on what layer of the skin is being targeted for treatment. A common treatment regimen is to have one injection per week for a month, then once every two weeks for two months, and then just once per month.

Mesotherapy refers to the injection technique itself—what’s in the injections can vary. Mesotherapy solutions are usually composed of natural mixtures of vitamins, minerals, plant extracts, and essential oils, but can contain other medications as well. You can ask your skin care specialist about the mesotherapy solution they are using.

Recovery and results

There is no downtime to mesotherapy, but there are risks of bruising, inflammation, and infection. The efficacy of mesotherapy for skin rejuvenation is unclear and the FDA has not evaluated different chemicals or mixtures for use in mesotherapy.
