Mesotherapy Injection

The skincare products we apply daily are absorbed primarily into the epidermis, which is the protective layer of our skin, acting as a barrier to external stimuli.

At the same time, chemical components with a molecular weight of less than 500 are more easily absorbed by the skin. However, due to the molecular structure of most skincare products, they are often unable to penetrate deep into the skin beyond the epidermis, limiting their effectiveness.

Therefore, to increase the absorption capacity of the skin while minimizing damage to its protective barrier, the solution is to use micro-needling techniques. This is where doctors use micro-needling to create a “shortcut” in the epidermis — the Mesotherapy injection. This technique opens a channel for delivering essential nutrients such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, vitamin C, and other high-molecular or neutral molecules deep into the skin tissue. This is commonly referred to as “Mesotherapy.”

Mesotherapy Principle | AI BEAUTY

Mesotherapy utilizes negative pressure micro-needles to inject hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic acid), collagen, botulinum toxin, PRP autologous cells, and other injectables into the dermis, replenishing the skin with up to 1,000 times its weight in water. This stimulates skin cell regeneration, repairs damaged cells, and restores firmness, smoothness, and elasticity to the skin in a short time. Typically, a treatment course often requires several sessions for optimal results.

Mesotherapy Types | AI BEAUTY

Currently, there are two main types of Mesotherapy: Single-ingredient Mesotherapy and Composite Mesotherapy.

Single-ingredient Mesotherapy contains only one ingredient—hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic acid). This type of hyaluronic acid, which does not contain crosslinking agents, differs from the hyaluronic acid used in cosmetic surgery. It is injected into the skin at a certain depth using special instruments, forming a membrane that hydrates and retains water beneath the skin’s surface.

Composite Mesotherapy combines various ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, vitamin C, botulinum toxin, PRP, and others, customized to address different skin conditions and needs.

Composite Mesotherapy targets various skin problems such as improving skin texture, elasticity, dullness, pore size, and fine lines caused by dehydration.

Mesotherapy Benefits Overview

Mesotherapy Benefit 1: Hydration
Think about how even daily skincare products struggle to be absorbed by the skin, and how thick makeup prevents the skin from breathing! Mesotherapy can break through the 0.1mm outer skin barrier and deliver hyaluronic acid deep into the dermis at a depth of 1.28mm, effectively locking in moisture and making the skin fuller and more hydrated.

Mesotherapy, also known as “microneedling,” is scientifically called an intradermal injection. In simple terms, Mesotherapy uses negative pressure needles to inject a hyaluronic acid-based solution into the dermis.

Hyaluronic acid, a natural component of the human body, is known for its moisture retention capabilities. Compared to skin in the 20-30 age range, the body’s hyaluronic acid content drops to 75% in the 30-40 age range and 60% in those over 40. This leads to reduced skin elasticity and fine lines, which is why injecting hyaluronic acid can improve moisture retention and make the skin plump and glowing. Hyaluronic acid is widely recognized as the “best moisturizing factor.”

Mesotherapy Benefit 2: Whitening and Spot Reduction
Under the harsh sun, lights, and radiation from computers, skin can lose its radiance over time. Mesotherapy delivers whitening agents and antioxidants deep into the dermis, repairing damaged cells and restoring the skin’s smoothness and brightness, reducing dark spots.

Mesotherapy injectables are customized by doctors to meet individual skin needs. Vitamin C and glutathione can be added for whitening and antioxidants, promoting collagen production. Botox (Botulinum Toxin A) can refine pores and smooth the skin, while collagen helps improve skin thickness and elasticity.

Mesotherapy Benefit 3: Acne Treatment
Hormonal imbalances, insufficient skin cleansing, excessive stimulation from food, and cosmetics can clog pores and inflame hair follicles. Mesotherapy delivers oil-controlling and antibacterial substances to the dermis, effectively killing acne-causing bacteria, shrinking pores, and treating acne while lightening acne scars.

Mesotherapy Treatment Plan

Mesotherapy + Botulinum Toxin

Adding small amounts of Botulinum Toxin into a base of hyaluronic acid Mesotherapy can provide the original cosmetic benefits while also removing fine lines and wrinkles, improving mild skin sagging, and tightening large pores.

Mesotherapy + Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a key component in whitening injections. Adding this to Mesotherapy not only provides skin hydration, strengthens moisture retention, and tightens pores but also whitens and fades dark spots.

Mesotherapy + Filorga
Filorga’s repair ability is well known, and many premium Mesotherapy formulations incorporate Filorga for enhanced effects. It provides deep hydration while also repairing the skin, ensuring it remains in a healthy, stable condition.

Mesotherapy + PRP
By combining traditional Mesotherapy with high-concentration PRP (platelet-rich plasma), multiple autologous growth factors can penetrate the skin, repairing aging and damaged tissues. This results in improved skin texture, tightening, wrinkle reduction, and a more youthful appearance.

Mesotherapy Detailed Explanation | AI BEAUTY

Mesotherapy Treatment Method
Using non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid, botulinum toxin, collagen, PRP, and DNA (the latter two are not yet approved for domestic use), Mesotherapy directly injects these into the skin to hydrate and rejuvenate.

• Local anesthesia is applied to the injection area.

• Mesotherapy injection is administered.

• A calming facial mask is applied post-injection.

Mesotherapy Treatment Results

• Skin is hydrated and tender.

• Elasticity improves.

• Achieve glowing, youthful skin.

Mesotherapy Treatment Standards

• Injection depth: 0.8-1.2mm, controlled by the doctor.

• Results depend on: doctor’s experience, technique, equipment, and needle type.

• Injection dosage and method: 3-6ml is typically sufficient. Exceeding 8ml is unnecessary and can cause skin damage.

Mesotherapy Pros and Cons

Mesotherapy Advantages

• Reaches deep skin layers.

• Treatment effects vary based on injected substances.

• Relatively safe.

Pre-treatment Precautions

• Avoid Mesotherapy during menstruation, as bruising may take longer to dissipate.

• Inform your doctor if you have a sensitivity to topical anesthetics.

• Pregnant women, those with a tendency for scarring, or individuals on special medications should avoid Mesotherapy.

• Always consult with a doctor before treatment to prevent unnecessary harm.

Mesotherapy Side Effects and Risks

• May cause slight allergic reactions.

Post-treatment Care

• Avoid water for 1-2 days.

• Do not massage or apply excessive pressure for 1-7 days. Avoid high temperatures, humidity, and prolonged sun exposure.

• Use medical-grade repair masks, such as QDEL Bio-fiber Repair Mask.
