Autologous mesotherapy

Mesotherapy with autologous platelet growth factors is a revolutionary anti-aging treatment. It stimulates the skin’s natural mechanism of regeneration and rejuvenation and aims to improve skin texture by adding radiance, hydration, cellular renewal and improving its elasticity.

How it works

Autologous Mesotherapy through activation of natural regeneration mechanisms is based on the growth factors contained in platelets. Growth factors promote angiogenesis and better oxygenation of the skin, the regeneration of skin cells, the activation of fibroblasts – cells responsible for the production of collagen and elastin.

Procedure

Autologous mesotherapy does not require special preparation, is a painless treatment, leaves no scars, lasts 30 minutes and is performed in the clinic. With a simple venipuncture, a small amount of blood is taken. The sample is centrifuged and separated into its components, red blood cells, plasma, platelets and white blood cells. The multipotent plasma mixture, rich in platelets enriched with autologous growth factors, is isolated and activated and used as a mesotherapy material.

It is placed using mesotherapy or wrinkle correction techniques in areas where the skin has lost its normal tone and is dehydrated, such as the face, neck, décolleté, arms, back of the hands, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and scalp.
