Orange peel skin appareance can be one of the signs of cellulite, this is treated in various ways but a strong response comes from Aesthetic Medicine: mesotherapy.

This is in fact a non-surgical treatment, of Aesthetic Medicine, which uses injections into the mesoderm (the layer of tissue under the skin) composed of fat and subcutaneous tissue.

It aims to act by reducing the accumulation of fat, water retention and cellulite in different localized areas, by injecting specific drugs, minerals and vitamins into the mesoderm: these are calibrated by the Aesthetic Doctor expert in mesotherapy, based on the characteristics of the patient and the severity of cellulite.

Indications

Usually, patients need 3-4 mesotherapy treatments, 3 to 4 weeks apart to have a significant effect against cellulite.

There are several active ingredients that can be used according to the characteristics of the patient and the type of cellulite to be treated, now we will talk about the treatment based on phosphatidylcholine. Phosphatidylcholine is a good lipolytic drug capable of acting directly on fat cells, favoring their disposal and therefore eliminating them.

Some doctors present it as a non-surgical liposuction, as its effect is to make fats soluble and therefore reabsorbable by the body.

Other substances used are those with a lymphatic drainage effect and phlebotonic substances: these have proven to be central in improving circulation in the capillaries (microcirculation) and in reducing water retention and stagnation of liquids.

• The results persist for a long time, especially if supported by an adequate lifestyle and diet;
• Results visible since 3rd day;
• Localized fat is reduced;
• It improves the microcirculation and therefore also the water retention finds a benefit;
• Skin is more elastic;
