Mesotherapy VS Liposuction

Mesotherapy treats cellulite providing a smoother skin surface and tightening the loose skin at the same time where liposuction often increases the effects of pre-existing cellulite by spreading it to other areas of the body and leaves the skin to be surgically removed at a later date. Mesotherapy also promotes fat reduction in specific areas of the body. The fat deposits are flushed out of the chosen areas of the body and the fat is not gained back in other areas, which often occurs after Liposuction. Mesotherapy being a non-surgical procedure does not require hospital admittance, general anesthesia or downtime.

Below is summarized table of the comparison:

LIPOSUCTION VERSUS MESOTHERAPY
LIPOSUCTION	MESOTHERAPY
• surgical procedure	• non-invasive procedure
• removes fat cells	• removes fat from fat cells
• cannot be used where there is cellulite	• used wherever there is cellulite
• down time (2 weeks)	• no down time
• wear restrictive garments afterwards for weeks	• wear loose clothing after treatment
• weight gain back in abnormal places	• weight gain back where it was lost
• local or general anesthesia	• topical anesthesia
• significant bruising and pain	• minimal bruising and pain

To-Do-List Prior To Having Mesotherapy Procedure (2)

Remember, to have a fine body as you would want, mesotherapy as a single method would not work. You need to change your lifestyle and habit into a healthier way. You must also pay a great deal of attention to your nutrition and exercise. The effectiveness of the treatments is improved by proper diet, exercise, adrenal and thyroid function. Having a positive attitude towards yourself and your body in particular is extremely important. It helps the whole process. It is not the mesotherapy that creates the miracle, it is YOU!

A high protein, low carbohydrate diet is recommended prior to and during your treatment program and you must avoid foods containing xanthenes or caffeine’s such as coffee, caffeinated teas, chocolate or sodas before each treatment.

You must NOT consume xanthenes or caffeine products drinks prior to treatments may experience lightheadedness or faint. You must consume a protein meal and adequate fluids prior to each treatment.

To-Do-List Prior To Having Mesotherapy Procedure (1)

Before deciding to have a mesotherapy procedure, you need to do certain things.

First, do a research on mesotherapy. You can do this by browsing the internet, going to the library, talking to the person who already had mesotherapy procedure, talking to the physician who is experienced in doing the procedure (and also licensed for it), etc.

Second, go to your GP and ask for a general check-up. Get the results and consult your GP about the possibility of having a mesotherapy procedure and ask for his/her opinion on whether your physical condition is fit for the procedure. There are certain health conditions which contraindicate mesotherapy, e. g. pregnancy, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, heart arrhythmias under medication, severe heart disease, and consumption of blood thinners.

After you feel that you have done sufficient research and the general check-up came back OK, then think thoroughly whether you want to do the procedure or not, what actually motivates you to do it, do you really need it, etc.

You should be aware that any medical procedure will always have risks. Nothing is 100% safe. This is why you need to gather some information first before you decide to have the procedure. The information will then be your reference for further considerations.
