Until now, Cellulite could not be treated with the conventional over-the-counter products, treatments, and surgical or non-invasive procedures. However, never fear, Mesotherapy is here! We would like to introduce you to Mesotherapy, the latest breakthrough in lunchtime procedures for the elimination of cellulite.
Cellulite affects everyone indiscriminately. Nine out of every ten women have cellulite and even some men have cellulite. Studies show that approximately 95% of the female population has or will get cellulite at some point in their lives. As a woman, I will try every magic potion, cream, concoction, or treatment available to eliminate my problem areas. Apparently, many other women feel the same way and it is estimated that us women spend a whopping $ 3 Billion a year trying to rid ourselves of cottage cheese thighs and sagging skin. Although results vary from individual to individual, there has been no proof that any of these anti-cellulite lotions and potions with their claims of "amazing results in just three weeks!" are actually effective at eliminating cellulite.

Mesotherapy injections can be used to tighten sagging skin or reduce fat and cellulite on the following:
Cellulite is a skin condition affecting 95 percent of post-pubescent women -- the majority of women over age 20. Even those with a slim figure often complain about cellulite's external visible signs its lumpy, dimpled appearance commonly on hips, buttocks and legs. Men may also be afflicted. Cellulite is alleged to be a special type of "fat gone wrong," a combination of fat, water, and "toxic wastes" that the body has failed to eliminate. Cellulite is not a disease of excess weight. It is an equal opportunity offender.
Cellulite results from the combination of fatty tissue and fluid retention. It is created by poor circulation, fat herniation, a weakening of connective tissues, lymphatic congestion and hormonal imbalances. In women, fat cells in the lower part of the body work harder than those in the upper body to grab and store fat. and they hang on six times harder to the stored fat. This makes weight loss from the lower body impossible without the upper body suffering.
Cellulite appears in the subcutaneous level of the skin. Fat cells in this layer are arranged in chambers surrounded by connective tissue (picture a hair net). Fat cells held within the perimeters of each chamber retain water, which expands and stretches through the connective tissues. Eventually the connective tissue contracts, hardens (sclerosis), and holds that sector of skin as non-flexible. The surrounding tissue continues to expand with fat and water gain. Thus the 'cottage-cheese' appearance of cellulite.
Bio Age Clinics have developed their own FDA approved mesotherapy injection formula called Microinjection Therapy (MIT). Prominent physicians and chemists for BioAge International, a wholly owned subsidiary of Innovative Medical Group (IMG), have access to 60 different "recipes" which are used for our MesoLift and Microinjection Therapy treatments. The BioAge Clinic Microinjection formula offers all the same benefits as the generic Mesotherapy but has an added benefit. Microinjection therapy can also be used to tighten skin as well as anti aging therapy.
In comparison to a surgical procedure, Liposuction, over the counter weight loss drugs, and other fat reduction treatments, Mesotherapy costs less. The actual cost is determined at initial consultation and examination when treatment areas are defined.
Mesotherapy is more about losing inches than losing large amounts of weight. Treatments vary from patient to patient, depending on the type of fat, size of patient, and location of treatment. A thin patient with "love handles" or "saddle bags" may require less, whereas obese individuals may require more. An average patient might require five to ten treatments, however an athlete concentrating on a targeted area might only need two to four treatments.
Mesotherapy can target specific areas where the body stores excess fat. The customized formulas are injected in chosen areas to break down the trapped fat cells. The body naturally flushes out the broken-down fat. Spot reduction injections are used for double chins, love handles and any area where your body pockets fat.
Specific, custom, combinations of drugs and vitamins are compounded to treat each patient's individual conditions. Solution are placed directly into the problematic area thus minimizing side effects, allergies, and drug interactions
Side effects are generally limited to a twenty-minute slight itching/burning sensation as well as possible bruising. If bruising occurs, it will most likely fade within a week.
Yes. The procedure generally takes 30 minutes and requires no preparation or recovery time. No heavy bandages or girdles are used. This treatment is commonly called a "Lunch Time Treatment".
The majority of the patients experience minimal discomfort. For those with lower pain thresholds, the technician may apply a numbing cream or advise painkillers prior to the treatment.
Treatment areas will remain free of unwanted fat as long as the patient maintains a healthy diet and exercise. Cellulite treatments might need maintenance on a six-month to one-year basis.
