Infiltration techniques for the correct introduction of mesopreparations

Among the many cosmetology services that aesthetic medicine specialists provide to their patients today, one of the most popular, sought after and effective is mesotherapy procedure. The introduction of multi-component mesotherapeutic cocktails into the patient's skin makes it possible to eliminate a variety of cosmetic and dermatological problems, improve skin condition, restore youth and beauty to the patient. However, to achieve a good effect, the specialist must master the necessary techniques for the introduction of mesopreparations. Today estet-portal.com talks in detail about infiltration mesotherapy techniques and features of their application.

What determines the choice of technique for the introduction of mesopreparations

Each specialist who masters injection techniques, first of all, must have the necessary skills to introduce mesopreparations.

Choosing a high-quality meso-cocktail and using the correct technique for introducing meso-preparations – this is a guarantee of a good result after the mesotherapy procedure.

There are several main mesotherapy techniques that are used in modern cosmetology, and one of the most popular is mesoinfiltration. The choice of the optimal technique for a particular patient depends on several factors. It is very important to understand what kind of result after the procedure the patient expects to receive.

Mesopreparations:

• mesoinfiltration – popular technique for introducing mesopreparations;
• introduction of mesopreparations into the skin by mesodissolution method;
• features of mesoperfusion technique for the introduction of mesopreparations.

Mesoinfiltration – popular technique for introducing mesopreparations

Infiltration (mesoinfiltration) – an additional technique for introducing mesopreparations at the hypodermal level to a depth of 6-13 mm. The purpose of this technique is to create a meso-cocktail depot that will indirectly affect the problem area.

Mesoinfiltration is performed after the classic mesotherapy course, which includes the vascular stage, classic mesotherapy session, as well as the drainage and metabolic stages.

The main directions of this technique: lipolytic, defibrosing, drainage and metabolic effects.

In aesthetic medicine, infiltration is used to correct local fat deposits on the face and body, cellulite, in particular: the oval of the face and the “second” chin, the “climacteric hump” - the region of the 6-7th cervical vertebrae, the outer and inner surfaces of the hips and shoulders , the abdomen and lower back, the region of "breeches", the treatment of hydrolipodystrophy (localization of the "orange peel"). Infiltration has also found its application in sports medicine, traumatology and rheumatology due to its analgesic, decongestant and anti-inflammatory effects.

The technique of this mesotherapeutic method, despite the deep and volumetric administration of drugs, is the least painful and less traumatic if it is performed correctly. An attentive and caring doctor may only encounter such unpleasant sensations that arise in patients as a feeling of fullness and small hematomas due to damage to blood vessels in the hypodermis. But patients informed in advance will endure the procedure much easier and more comfortably.

In modern aesthetic medicine, infiltration mesotherapy technique is divided into two independent methods: mesodissolution and mesoperfusion.

They differ either in the rate and dose of the injected mesopreparation, or in the chemical composition of the cocktail used.

Introduction of mesopreparations into the skin by mesodissolution

Mesodissolution – treatment of local fat deposits by deep injection of hypoosmolar cocktails (100-120 mosm/l). These include: sodium deoxycholate 0.6%, MPH. With the introduction of hypoosmolar mesopreparations, osmotic pressure tends to equalize the concentration of substances on both sides of the cell membrane: water rushes into the cell (since the sosmolarity of adipocytes is about 300 mosm / l). Swelling of adipocytes leads to rupture of their membranes, unable to hold pressure, and destruction of fat cells. Mesodissolution should be used only in areas of loose fat deposits or after softening of "dense" cellulite (using hyaluronidase 500 U and organic silicon 1%), observing all the stages of a classic mesotherapy session. This is due to the fact that with this method a large amount of lipolysis products are formed, which must be removed from the body as soon as possible, which is almost impossible on dense fibrous tissues. In order to eliminate lipolysis products, in one session with mesodissolution, drainage mesotechnique is performed with complex cocktails with a vascular and lymphatic drainage effect (organic silicon 1%, caffeine 20%, artichoke extract 2%, vitamin C 10%)

Technique: 30G (0.3X13mm) and 27G (0.4X13mm) needle is inserted into the skin fold to a depth of 6 mm on the face and 13 mm on the body. The distance between injections should be 2-3 cm. Volumes per injection point 0.5-5.0 ml with their number 5-20 per zone. The total volume per zone is up to 40 ml. The technique is performed manually or with the help of a mesoinjector. A good and visible effect after therapy is achieved after 3-4 procedures.

Features of mesoperfusion technique for the introduction of mesopreparations (H3)

Mesoperfusion – a technique for deep injection of hypoosmolar mesopreparations, leading to their impregnation of subcutaneous fat, uniform distribution and saturation of the entire thickness of the treated area. Mesococktails are introduced slowly, drip, with a gradual change in the depth of injection from 13 mm at the beginning to 1 mm at the end. To facilitate and reduce the pain of the procedure, it is allowed to add water for injection, anesthetics and adrenaline in various concentrations to the cocktail. Mesoperfusion, like mesodissolution, is effective on loose fat deposits. As a final step, it also requires meso-drainage and metabolic therapy. Injections are carried out with an interval of 14 days. Mesoperfusion is a favorite for many patients.

Technique: before injection, make the skin into a fold, insert the needle (30G or 27G) at an angle of 90 degrees. The insertion depth is 6 mm on the face and 13 mm on the body. The distance between injections is up to 5.0 cm, the volume of the drug: 1.0 – 5.0 ml. The number of injections per zone is from 5 to 20, and the volume – up to 40 ml. The introduction can be slow (2-3 seconds) or very slow (up to 15 minutes). In the first case, injections can be performed manually, in the second – it is more convenient to use the mesonjector in the "extended injection" mode. Products used: green tea extract 6%, caffeine 20%, L-carnitine 10%, vitamin C 10%, MPX.

An additional effect in the reduction of body fat is given by the appointment of physiotherapy techniques. But their beginning is possible not earlier than on the third or fifth day after the mesotherapy session.
