Cellulite is a thorn in many a woman’s (back)side, but some doctors claim that there now IS a cure, and it’s name is mesotherapy. This guest post will give you an informative overview of this promising cellulite treatment.
Mesotherapy began as a medical technique, invented in 1952 by the french doctor Michel Pistor, and intended to help such conditions as sports trauma, infectious disease, vascular disease and poor circulation. However it was soon discovered that mesotherapy is incredibly effective in the treatment of certain cosmetic conditions. The appearance of cellulite can be effectively diminished with mesotherapy. It works by stimulating the middle layer of the skin where cellulite resides (this layer is called the mesoderm) which has the effect of disbursing the cellulite.
When I say it disburses fat, what I mean specifically is that mesotherapy melts the fat in the skin via painless injections and breaks up the network of connective tissue fibers that form trapping fat cells and resulting in cellulite. Mesotherapy breaks the bands of connective tissues by injecting small amounts of homeopathic medicine immediately beneath the surface of the skin (mesoderm) to break down the cellulite and to improve circulation and lymphatic and venous drainage. Each treatment takes about ten minutes and is not painful. After the treatment patients can return to normal activities. After an initial consultation patients are informed as to how many treatments they will require which is determined by how much cellulite and dimpling he/she has. The treatment is permanent and the results are measurable as long as patients do not gain more than fifteen pounds. Legs, buttocks, abdomen, back and arms can be treated with equally good results.
When treating cellulite the big concern is breaking down the connective tissue as opposed to breaking down the fat. Surprisingly, some women have an abundance of cellulite but a small amount of fat. The dimpling becomes apparent due to the formation of these connective tissue bands. After 10 sessions, the cellulite is typically reduced by at least 50%. As many know, Mesotherapy is also used as a fat melting weight loss technique. For those who desire both inch and cellulite reduction, Dr. Shapiro first tackles the fat by using those combinations of mesotherapy medication that melt fat. Once the patient has reached their target goal with respect to inch reduction, Dr.Shapiro then formulates the medication to attack cellulite.
While cosmetics companies may launch aggressive ad campaigns to tout their latest topical cellulite remedy, at this point in time Mesotherapy is the only medically safe option to remedy cellulite permanently.
