Mesotherapy is mainly aimed at rejuvenating facial skin and preventing the appearance of early signs of photoaging, so many believe that it should be performed at 25-35 years of age. In fact, facial mesotherapy after 40 is considered the most effective, since it is at this age that you will be able to notice the maximum results of the technique in a short time.
The skin should be helped already in its youth
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the injection of special compounds into the structure of the dermis. They saturate epithelial cells with useful substances and awaken natural metabolic processes that slow down with age.
So, facial mesotherapy – at what age can it be performed? The minimum age of cosmetology clients in this case is 18 years. Even with parental permission, the procedure is not recommended, since it involves a violation of tissue integrity, which in adolescence can lead to serious complications and side effects.
If we talk about the effectiveness of technology, not all girls need it in the period from 18 to 25-27 years. However, there are a number of factors that mesotherapy can help correct at this age:
- Acne and post-acne;
- Enlarged pores;
- Dark circles under the eyes;
- Scars;
- Pigmentation.
You can also undergo a short course of mesotherapy for preventive purposes - to prevent the early formation of age and expression wrinkles. To do this, the drug is administered locally.
Beauty injections for skin treatment
According to the law of the Russian Federation, injection procedures can be done from 18 years of age. Upon reaching adulthood, you can do mesotherapy and plasma therapy for therapeutic purposes (at this age we are not talking about fighting the signs of aging).
Plasma therapy (PRP therapy) - the essence of the method is to introduce a person’s own blood plasma into the problem area. The plasma is pre-enriched with platelets using the ReGenLab apparatus. The injections trigger a powerful impulse for the regeneration of the epidermis. In young patients, this technique is used to treat acne. In older adults, for comprehensive rejuvenation: reducing the depth of wrinkles, improving the oval of the face, eliminating sagging skin.
Dermatovenerologist and cosmetologist Daria Bolgova performs plasma therapy.
On the contrary, mesotherapy is recommended after the inflammatory elements have passed. To get rid of stagnant acne spots, improve the condition and even out the skin after treatment. Injections involve the introduction of hyaluronic acid of low density and concentration. As a result: the relief improves, the elasticity of the skin increases, inflammation disappears, and the pores narrow. Mesotherapy is an excellent prevention of age-related changes.
“Beauty injections” not only rejuvenate, but also heal the skin.
Mesotherapy after 40
Unfortunately, 40-50 years is the most active age of skin aging. During this period, women notice strong changes in appearance associated with a lack of nutrients in the dermis and disrupted metabolic processes.
At this age, mesotherapy helps them cope with the following problems:
- Flabbiness, dullness of the skin.
- Dullness.
- Pigmentation.
- Swelling.
- Dark circles under the eyes.
- Cuperosis.
- Spider veins.
However, to improve the overall condition of your skin, you will have to undergo quite a few sessions. This is due to the cumulative effect of the procedure - all beneficial substances gradually accumulate in the skin, arriving there in small concentrations, which makes the procedure as safe as possible.
We erase wrinkles with injections
When wrinkles appear (after 32-33 years), injections based on collagen stimulators (Radiesse, AestheFill fillers) will help. This procedure is called vector lifting. This is an effective method of combating age-related changes that have already appeared. Fillers based on calcium hydroxyapatite stimulate the production of your own collagen and allow you to maintain an excellent facial frame.
Injections are administered along specified directions (vectors) in order to restore the natural tension of fibers that have lost their elasticity. With their help, you can restore a clear oval face, skin tone, eliminate nasolabial folds, drooping corners of the mouth, and sagging cheekbones.
Such injections can be done once every 2 years at the age of 30 to 40 years. After 40 years, we recommend once a year.

Contour plastic surgery – correction and replenishment of volume in various areas of the face using hyaluronic acid injections. For example, the popular procedure for lip augmentation and correction of lip asymmetry can, at the patient’s request, be performed after 18 years of age.

In order to correct age-related changes on the face - after 30 years, and for some after 40. After the third decade, the skin begins to lose turgor, collagen production slows down, ptosis, jowls, and wrinkles appear. With the help of contour plastic surgery, you can lift your cheekbones, correct nasolabial and nasolacrimal grooves, and smooth out wrinkles. Contour plastic surgery is an excellent alternative to surgical anti-aging methods.
Today, injection cosmetology is a worthy alternative to surgical rejuvenation methods.
Correction of facial wrinkles with Botox (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) becomes relevant after 30-35 years. When wrinkles appear, Botox can easily smooth them out and prevent the appearance of serious wrinkles. Botulinum toxin relaxes facial muscles, which effectively smoothes out longitudinal and transverse wrinkles, tightens the skin around the mouth and eyebrows, and removes crow's feet.
Effect and efficiency
Most often, girls begin to notice the first results of mesotherapy after the first two sessions. The skin becomes firmer, more elastic, toned, a beautiful, natural glow appears on it, and the overall skin tone is evened out.
However, keep in mind that to achieve the desired result you will have to complete a full course consisting of 8-15 visits to cosmetology. The exact number of sessions is assigned by the master. This takes into account the initial condition of the skin, the girl’s health and the effect she wants to achieve.
When performing mesotherapy at home, you will need 1.5-2 times more sessions. However, they are carried out much more often - 4-5 times a week.
Fighting the first signs of aging
After 25 years, you can begin the fight against aging prevention - mesotherapy and biorevitalization will help with this. With their help, you can maintain skin turgor and maintain a fresh complexion.
Biorevitalization or, as this procedure is often called, hyaluronic acid injections, is one of the most popular injection procedures among the fair sex. The syringe contains pure medium-density hyaluronic acid with the addition of peptides, amino acids and vitamins. This “cocktail” intensively nourishes from the inside and saturates the skin with moisture. Due to this, the skin becomes moisturized, elastic, facial wrinkles are smoothed out, and the skin texture is evened out.

From 25 to 35 years of age, mesotherapy and biorevitalization can be done prophylactically once every 2 years. After 35 years - once a year.
With the help of injections, you can restore beauty not only to the face, but also to the neck, décolleté, and hands.
Face&Body cosmetology uses original certified injection drugs from leading brands: Yvore, Juvederm, Ial-System, Viscoderm, Meso, Profhilo, Restylane, Teosyal, Hyalual. There are medications to solve various skin problems. As well as specialized products for use on various areas of the face and body. The brand and type are selected by a cosmetologist after examining the skin condition of a particular patient.
Recommendations for care after injections
Despite the safety of mesotherapy, it involves a violation of the integrity of the skin. Because of this, it can lead to serious complications and side effects if the recommendations and precautions prescribed by the specialist are not followed.
There are not many such restrictions prescribed, but it is important to pay attention to them:
- Avoid washing and applying cosmetics for 4 hours;
- Stop smoking and drinking alcohol and energy drinks for 6 hours;
- For three days, avoid visiting the bathhouse, sauna, or taking a hot bath;
- Stop taking blood thinning medications and do not sunbathe.
You need to follow recommendations and precautions after each mesotherapy session, regardless of where you performed it - in cosmetology or at home.
Photos before and after
In the photo you can clearly evaluate the effectiveness of mesotherapy and see how the procedure restores facial skin in women of different ages.
However, keep in mind that in any case, to achieve the desired result you will have to undergo a course of sessions. A one-time administration of a meso-cocktail will be absolutely ineffective.

So when to start?
The age at which you can start doing certain procedures described in this article is approximate. Each of us is unique. Some people may need injections at a fairly young age. For some, the first procedures will be relevant only after 40-45 years. It depends on lifestyle, health status and other individual characteristics. A qualified cosmetologist, after examining the condition of the skin and identifying problems, will advise what procedures will help preserve youth and when it is enough to do facial massages, treatments, peelings, and when it is already possible to correct deficiencies with the help of injections.
