Mesopeeling of the face: technique, results and consequences of use

The famous poetess Anna Akhmatova wrote lines that perfectly express the eternal female fear of aging: “But what should we do with the horror that was once called the passage of time?” Meanwhile, today it is no longer necessary to listen with trepidation to the sound of the steps of maturity that has stepped on the threshold of our lives. The development of modern aesthetic medicine has broken the connection between beauty and biological age. Innovative methods of rejuvenation, one of which is mesopeeling, allow you to look attractive regardless of the number in your passport.

What is mesopeeling and why is it needed?

Any peeling is designed to trigger certain processes in the skin: self-renewal, cleansing, rejuvenation, etc. There are plenty of types of peelings to achieve such goals. They can act at different levels of the skin and still provide a specific effect.

Mesotherapy involves the procedure of introducing various active substances under the dermis using a syringe or mesoscooter. An effective fusion of two procedures (peeling and mesotherapy) is mesopeeling.

Facial mesopeeling is an ideal risk-free procedure for women and men of any age (after 18 years) and skin type. During such a session, glycolic acid with a concentration of 1% is injected under the epidermis. Input occurs in an invasive way (passing through the skin barrier). In addition to this substance, the product may also contain others:

• lactic acid;
• salicylic acid;
• retinoic acid.

Glycolic acid-based cocktails can contain these components in different percentages. The difference in proportions is the actual solution to a specific problem. For example, to get rid of acne and spots from it, mixes with salicylic acid are used, and to solve problems with wrinkles - with lactic acid.

Injection of “beauty cocktails” is simply necessary to achieve the following effects: solving problems with wrinkles, scars, spots of various origins (pigmentation, senile, post-acne). The skin, thanks to the influence of glycolic acid, activates the regenerating processes in it and the problem goes away on its own.

Mesopeeling is classified as a superficial peeling procedure, since the needle penetrates a maximum depth of 2 mm under the skin. In some cases, the introduction of mesopiling acids is carried out as a mid-peeling (with deeper penetration into the layers of the dermis and the introduction of the required amount of the drug there).

A huge advantage of using mesopeeling is that after the session you do not need to get used to minor bruises, swelling, spots or very visible puncture sites, and then peeling, minor rashes. They simply won't exist. And you can do the procedure whenever you want - be it in summer or winter, unlike other chemical peelings.

What is mesopeeling

Already from the very name of the procedure you can understand that it combines two effective technologies, each of which is aimed at giving the skin youth and a healthy glow.

Mesopeeling (mesopil) –

This is a cosmetic procedure based on a combination of chemical peeling and mesotherapy. The combination of these techniques allows you to enhance the effect of each of them and achieve truly impressive results.

Mesotherapy is a method of rejuvenation that has been proven over the years, involving the subcutaneous administration of microdoses of medicines, vitamins, homeopathic drugs and their mixtures. The technology has gained popularity due to the fact that it allows you to get instant results, expressed in the form of well-moisturized skin that has a healthy, fresh appearance - exactly like after a long, quality rest. Thanks to injections of beneficial substances, the skin quickly recovers after mesopeeling.

During mesotherapy, special preparations or cocktails are used, which are selected according to the individual characteristics and indications of a particular patient. The ingredients of such a cocktail can be vitamin complexes, microelements, moisturizing components, plant extracts, amino acids.

The name of the second component of mesopeeling is derived from the English verb to peel, which is translated into Russian as “to cleanse.” Accordingly, chemical peeling is a cosmetic technique aimed at exfoliating cells in the upper layer of the epidermis, as well as activating the papillary layer of the dermis. The procedure allows you to achieve stimulation of the papillary layer of the dermis, which entails the launch of the process of regeneration of the skin and improvement of its quality.

Doctors have combined the advantages of mesotherapy and peeling, revealing to the world a new direction in cosmetology - mesopeeling, which allows you to carefully and quickly restore youth to the skin and eliminate many defects.

Indications for use

No cosmetic procedures are performed just for show. Each manipulation, like any cosmetic product, is aimed at a specific effect: care, moisturizing, etc. So mesotherapy is designed to solve the following skin problems:

1. Comedones . You can cleanse the pores of these pollutants using the mesopeeling procedure. Such deep cleansing is possible due to the action of acid: it gently expands the clogged pore, after which the hardened fat and impurities are simply removed. At the same time, the skin softens and smoothes.
2. Pores. Enlarged pores are not a sign of healthy facial skin. But the bigger problem is the accumulation of contaminants in them, which causes the hated “black dots” to appear. By choosing a cocktail for mesotherapy, you can carefully narrow them and make them invisible for a long time. At the same time, the natural “breathing” of the skin improves, and the sebaceous glands work normally, without excess fat production.
3. Signs of aging. Deep wrinkles can be smoothed out using a rejuvenation method called mesopeeling. A special cocktail is selected, which will definitely include lactic acid. Medium peeling is recommended here. The procedure is an alternative to deep peeling. This method also allows you to get rid of minor wrinkles that are located around the eyes, lips and nose. Skin elasticity improves and skin restoration occurs.
4. Dull skin color. This problem can be present in women of different ages. This procedure can get rid of it even in one session of visiting a cosmetologist. In addition to improving complexion, the lipid barrier is also restored.
5. Scarring. You can cleanse the skin of such skin defects using mechanical peeling, where cleaning is carried out with abrasive particles or by exposing the surface layers of the skin to acids. Mesopeeling allows you to get rid of small scars, scars, traces of chickenpox, reduce rough scars, stretch marks in a couple of sessions.
6. Stains. Pigment stains on the face may be present for various reasons, but they are not important if the choice was in favor of mesopeeling sessions. This cosmetic procedure will help get rid of spots on the face of any origin in the shortest possible time.

In addition to the main directions of action of glycolic acid, the positive qualities also include the treatment of teenage rashes and acne. The effect of the procedure can last up to a year, and the chemical itself does not cause allergic reactions.

Indications for mesopeeling

The procedure will be effective for the following problems:

• seborrhea;
• signs of chronoaging and photoaging;
• acne and post-acne (spots, scars);
• dark spots;
• striae;
• hyperkeratosis;
• dull complexion;
• atrophic scars.

The advantage of mesopil lies not only in its ability to effectively renew epidermal cells, but also in its significant effect on fibroblasts.

The procedure activates these important elements of the skin, causing them to more actively produce hyaluronic acid, elastin and collagen fibers, which, in turn, helps to increase skin hydration, elasticity and firmness.

Contraindications

Despite all the positive effects of superficial mesopeeling, the procedure has some contraindications. There are not as many of them as with conventional types of peeling, but they cannot be neglected:

1. individual intolerance to any component included in the drug;
2. period of viral and infectious diseases;
3. any inflammatory reactions in the body;
4. low blood clotting;
5. mechanical damage to the skin, wounds, skin diseases.

The procedure is allowed for women preparing to become mothers and breastfeeding. Although it is not recommended for young people under 18 years of age. But in some cases, it is recommended to carry out a course of mesopeeling to improve the condition of young skin. The number of sessions is determined by the cosmetologist.

Mesopeeling technology

Women are accustomed to adapting many procedures to carry them out at home. But in this case, it is impossible to carry out mesopeeling at home. The drug must be administered under the skin by a professional under sterile conditions, and even in the right places.

Before the procedure, preparations are made for the session. An allergy test is carried out (it is advisable that this happens a day before the procedure on delicate skin: at the wrist, behind the ear). If everything is in order, the specialist prepares the skin, and then mesopiling acids are introduced:

1. Cleansing. It can be carried out using any means at the discretion of the cosmetologist, taking into account the condition of the skin. Additionally, you can do scrubbing, masks, facial massage.

2. Administration of the drug. The drug is injected to a depth of 1 or 2 mm using the thinnest needle of a syringe at the desired angle. Before doing this, a mixture of acids is selected that is suitable for the particular case. The areas of the face where injections need to be made are also determined.

Mesopeeling techniques may vary. It all depends on the technology chosen for the procedure by a specific cosmetologist. Alternatively, after the cleansing stage, the face can be moisturized with cream or serum. And after the procedure, a toning or soothing mask can be made.

After mesopeeling, other mesotherapy procedures can be performed, but with an interval of one week. Combinations of superficial peeling and mesopeeling in one session are also possible. And also, the session can be a preparatory stage for other cosmetic procedures :

• mesotherapy with hyaluronic acid;
• Botox injections;
• filler injections;
• laser skin resurfacing.

Each of them can be performed in combination with the main mesopeeling procedure in one visit. However, it is not recommended to carry out all of the above types of procedures in one visit to a cosmetologist. It is not recommended to use glycolic acid and salicylic peeling in one session. After such a tandem, visible bruises and minor redness may remain.

Competent complexes, using mesopeeling and other procedures, can show good results and maintain them for a long time. But in addition to visiting a cosmetologist, this also requires home measures to maintain the beauty of the skin.

Mesopeeling cost of the procedure, effect, indications

Mesopeeling as an effective cosmetic procedure

Mesopeeling is considered one of the most popular methods of skin cleansing. The methodology is the result of a symbiosis of injection mesotherapy, which is not typical for exfoliation, and chemical skin cleansing products.

At the VitaDerm medical cosmetology clinic, the mesopeeling procedure is one of the most popular services. Clinic doctors often have to answer questions regarding the intricacies of the technique, its effectiveness and indications for using the course.

What is the essence of the method, how does it differ from other types of cosmetic skin cleansing?

This is the first question that arises in the patient’s mind when he is offered this service. The procedure uses the mesotherapy technique, when the active composition is introduced under the skin by injection, rather than applied to the surface of the dermis. In this case, the cocktail consists of ingredients familiar to traditional peeling - glycolic, retinoic, lactic or salicylic acids.

The main distinguishing feature of mesopeeling is its gentle effect, which does not cause irritation, burning, redness and peeling of surface tissues. The “soft” cleansing effect is achieved by injecting the cocktail subcutaneously to a depth of 1–2 mm. Unlike other types of chemical peeling, mesopeeling is an off-season procedure; you can take the course at any time of the year.

What happens to the skin under the influence of mesopeeling?

The cocktail usually contains glycolic acid in a low concentration of 1%, amino acids, hyaluronic acid and a vitamin complex. Laboratory studies of the method have shown that glycolic acid activates the production of elastin and collagen proteins by fibroblasts - the building material of skin tissue.

As a result of intracellular processes initiated by mesopeeling, new young skin cells are formed. With targeted injections, an experienced cosmetologist can achieve significant aesthetic results. The VitaDerm clinic employs certified specialists who have extensive experience in conducting mesotherapy procedures and are fluent in exfoliation methods.

For what indications is a course of mesopeeling prescribed?

Mesotherapy procedures are prescribed by a doctor if the following problems exist:

• enlarged pores, comedones, acne;
• age-related destructive processes - decreased skin turgor, the appearance of wrinkles;
• tissue hydrobalance;
• correction of relief, scars and other external defects;
• correction of hyperpigmentation, age spots;
• seborrhea, acne, folliculitis.

Depending on the diagnosis and individual characteristics of the dermis, mesopeeling can be prescribed as an independent course, or in combination with mesotherapy procedures, in various combinations.

It is worth mentioning contraindications for mesopeeling. The minimally invasive procedure is so harmless that doctors consider it possible to prescribe it even during pregnancy and lactation. This method is strictly contraindicated for the following problems:

• allergic reaction to any component of the composition;
• problems with blood clotting;
• viral and other diseases in the acute stage;
• dermatological diseases.

What does a mesopeeling course look like in general?

Unlike other types of chemical cleansing of skin tissue, mesopeeling has virtually no side effects. This is achieved by the fact that the composition is administered subcutaneously, and the cocktail contains acid in the lowest concentration. The course consists of 5 – 10 procedures, carried out no more than once a week. The course consists of 3 stages:

1. the preparatory stage includes an examination by a doctor and a test for allergic reactions;
2. the injection peeling procedure itself - cleansing the skin, administering the drug, applying a tonic or soothing mask;
3. skin care after the procedure includes standard daily procedures for cleansing, toning and moisturizing the skin. Additional products may be used as prescribed by a doctor.

A course of mesopeeling completed at the VitaDerm clinic will provide the best results, because experienced, highly qualified specialists work with patients here, using innovative techniques, high-tech equipment and certified drugs.

Post-procedure care

When performing several procedures in one session, special skin care may be required. And if only mesopiling acids were introduced, then minimal care is required.

Special preparations, penetrating into the deep layers of the epidermis, provide the skin with complete care and a comprehensive effect on the necessary processes occurring in it. This is enough to not bother with subsequent skin care after the procedure. The following familiar daily rituals are enough:

• cleansing the face of impurities, including cosmetic products;
• toning the skin after cleansing;
• moisturizing (in any convenient way: mask, cream, fluid, serum, hydrosol, etc.).

Since after a visit to a cosmetologist, long-term restoration of the skin is not required, you should not spend money on additional care products that have not been used before. It is better not to experiment with cosmetics during this period. But advance preparation will not hurt. It would be a good idea to purchase basic cosmetics for personal care, especially if they have not been used before.
