How much does Mesotherapy cost?

Mesotherapy treatment costs vary according to the area being treated. The average cost per treatment is $250.00.

How many treatments are required?

Generally, the average patient requires 6-10 treatments. However thin people with problem areas such as "love handles" or "saddlebags" may require less, whereas more obese individuals may require more. Often results are seen in a couple of treatments as the dimpling smoothes out and clothes fit more loosely.

What are the side effects?

Side effects are generally limited to bruising. The bruises usually fade within a week. Occasionally, patients will complain of nausea following a treatment. Naturopathic medicine may be used to treat any of these symptoms if necessary.

Can I go back to work after the treatment?

Yes. The procedure generally takes 30 minutes and requires no preparation or recovery time. Neither heavy bandages nor girdles are used under usual circumstances.

Are the treatments painful?

The majority of patients experience minimal discomfort with mesotherapy. For those with lower pain thresholds, a numbing cream or analgesics may be used.

How long do the benefits last?

Treatment areas will remain free of unwanted fat as long as the patient maintains a healthy diet and exercise, and doestn't put on excess weight. Treatments for cellulite and for Mesolift will require maintenance on a six-month to one-year basis.

How many treatments are required before I see results?

It depends on the patient's body. Some patients see results after one treatment session while others may require 4-5 treatments to begin to see results. Often the patient's clothing will become looser and friends and family will tell the patient they appear thinner. However, Mesotherapy is more about losing inches in specific areas rather than losing large amounts of weight.

Is Mesotherapy different from liposuction?

Yes, it is very different. Besides involving no anesthesia and surgical risk, Mesotherapy requires no recovery time. Mesotherapy also removes the fat from the fat cell without destroying it. We believe this effect helps Mesotherapy give it's natural appearance. Also, if you gain weight after having mesotherapy, the fat will simply return to the treated area, unlike liposuction, where fat can start to occur in places that had been thin in the past, such as the arms, neck, face and calves.
