Mesolipolysis is a type of mesotherapy that aims at the unwanted and stubborn fat reduction, cellulite busting, and body sculpting. It is a medical procedure which involves a series of minor fat-melting injections into the layer of fat cells or subcutaneous tissues. It is used in those parts where the deposited fat is not dissolved through diet and exercise. 

This method is far less painful and less invasive than liposuction. Mesolipolysis is generally used for reducing fat in the facial area such as jaw area, cheeks, and buccal region. Other body areas may include the neck, double chin, arms, tummy, buttocks, shoulders, back, and thigh. This method is also effective for the improvement of skin elasticity and its regeneration. It increases fat metabolism and reduces cellulite appearance by boosting lymphatic circulation. Another benefit is the skin tightening as the fat reduces. The dissolved fat is transmitted through the bloodstream and expelled by kidneys and bowel.

Mesolipolysis can be done on any individual, male or female, who wants to get rid of unwanted fat deposits. Usually, 4 to 5 treatment sessions are given with 1 or 2 weeks of intervals.

The number of treatment sessions varies from person to person depending upon his/her needs and the area of fat deposit. The single treatment takes a few minutes and can be done in a clinical setting and without any downtime. Multiple body areas can be treated in a single sitting with immediate results. The patient can continue with his/her chores right away, but there are a certain recommended lifestyle and dietary modifications which increase the effectiveness of the treatment.

Mesolipolysis is also affordable than liposuction and has no anaesthetic and surgical complications or risks. Though there are some non-questionable side effects of this treatment such as swelling and bruising, such side effects can easily be resolved within a week.

Takeaway -

Mesolipolysis is a procedure which involves injection used to remove unwanted fat from the body. This method reduces fat and makes the skin more elastic and cellulite-free. This is a non-surgical procedure and hence it is less painful, less expensive, and less invasive than liposuction. The patient does not need any time for recovery after the treatment as there are no major side effects other than minor swelling and bruising.

The number of treatment sessions differs for every patient depending upon his/her requirements, fat deposit, and the concerned body area. Everyone is eligible for this treatment. The treatment is less time consuming and the results are immediate and effective as well. One may need to change some of his/her lifestyles and maintain proper hygiene and dietary routine after the treatment. It is also advisable to follow the post-treatment instructions recommended by the doctor for better and optimum results.
