Injected facial mesotherapy
Facial mesotherapy is rightly considered one of the leading aesthetic treatments and is now preferred as a basic treatment in the fight against skin aging. Mesotherapy is a technique of direct introduction of various nutrients into the part of the skin called the dermis, the middle layer (hence the name mesotherapy). The French healer Michel Pistor (1924-2003) is considered the pioneer of mesotherapy and with the development of science it is nowadays in our everyday life.
Mesotherapy with vitamins, amino acids & trace elements
Facial mesotherapy is a safe, natural procedure that delivers vitamins, minerals and amino acids deep into your skin, aiming to rejuvenate, brighten and hydrate your face.
The production of collagen and elastin is activated, while at the same time the skin’s metabolism is increased. As your skin ages, blood circulation decreases, resulting in a reduction of oxygen and nutrients that nourish the skin. These are the reasons that lead to premature aging making the skin dull and dull.
With mesotherapy, a cocktail of ingredients such as: vitamins, minerals, amino acids, trace elements, hyaluronic acid, collagen, etc. which are essential for the proper functioning of the skin cells, is administered to the skin. After mesotherapy, you will see a different face. The skin looks refreshed, relaxed, radiant and firm.

Dermapen
The Dermapen is a machine that looks like a large pen that has 12 fine needles at its tip, penetrates the skin up to 100 times per second with an adjustable speed and depth ranging between 0.25 – 2.5 mm depending on the area being treated.
The needles penetrate the skin without damaging it.
Needles cause multiple micro-injuries to the skin. They penetrate the skin and reach the dermis.
It is based on the body’s natural function to produce collagen and elastin to heal skin injuries.
It applies to:
Wrinkles – fine lines
Scars
Panades
Dyschromias
What to watch out for after the treatment:
1. The next two days there will be mild redness, which can be covered with a common make up. In some cases there will be a mild peeling.
2. In the following days the wrinkles will look softer and the gums will gradually recede considerably.
3. The use of sunscreen is necessary throughout the treatment.
How many sessions are needed:
The protocol we usually recommend is 1 session every 15 days and depending on the needs of the skin, the total number of sessions can reach 6.
Botulinum Toxin
The botulinum toxin is injected into the facial muscles to smooth out wrinkles and lines. It is most commonly used on forehead wrinkles and wrinkles around the eyes. It is a painless and safe treatment that offers a youthful appearance with fast and visible results.
Although the results are visible, the treatment will not radically change the appearance of your face, nor will it make you look like you “did something”. The activity of the muscles that cause wrinkles and lines is temporarily reduced, so you can still make expressions but without the wrinkles. The result varies between patients. The duration however ranges from 6 to 8 months then the muscle function gradually returns. The whole procedure takes 10-15 minutes and the patients leave the clinic without scars and irritations.
Who should not do Botulinum Toxin?
Pregnant and breastfeeding women.
People with neurological problems.
People who take medicines that affect the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles.
Instructions after using Botulinum Toxin:
For 2-3 hours after the treatment try to exercise the facial muscles (e.g. frowning, raising the eyebrows). This helps it to act faster within the muscles.
For the next 4 hours avoid lying down, applying make up and exercising intensively
For the next 48 hours hot showers, hairdryers and sun exposure are prohibited
How many sessions are needed:
One application and the initial result is visible within the first 3 days and the final result in 7 – 10 days.
What treatment do we use in case of hair loss?
We can use the classic needle mesotherapy technique with which we inject mainly a cocktail of vitamins and minoxidil that strengthen the hair and hair follicle.
As well as autologous mesotherapy with the patient’s blood with excellent results. The patient’s blood is rich in platelets. These platelets have the ability to gradually release growth factors at the appropriate sites where we inject them through PRP therapy. Growth factors proliferate, activating more stem cells. They are responsible for the efficient and rapid regeneration of tissues. Thus, the hair follicles are strengthened, resulting in the strengthening of existing fine hair follicles and the appearance of new ones.
How many sessions are needed:
In hair loss and androgenetic type alopecia, 6-8 sessions every 15 days or one month are needed.
