Mesotherapy in Queens, NY

Mesotherapy delivers a mix of vitamins, amino acids and hyaluronic acid into the skin with tiny injections or microneedling. It targets the face, eyes, neck or cleavage to boost hydration, glow and texture over a short course of sessions.

They work differently. PRP uses platelets from your own blood to support healing and collagen, while mesotherapy uses a prepared mix of vitamins and hyaluronic acid. Mesotherapy suits hydration and glow; PRP is often chosen for texture, scarring or hair.

Scalp mesotherapy is used for thinning hair, and some people see less shedding, but the evidence for regrowth is limited. Hair loss has many causes, so see a doctor or dermatologist first. The areas treated at the studio are listed on this page.

Each session involves many tiny needle pricks, and the thinner skin around the eyes and neck is more sensitive. Numbing cream is applied first, so most clients describe a quick sting rather than real pain.

Some ingredients, such as vitamin C or acids, can sting or feel warm as they enter the skin. The feeling usually fades within minutes. Tell your specialist if burning lasts or feels strong, so the mix or technique can be changed.

Mesotherapy is not banned in the US, but the FDA has not approved the procedure or most of the ingredient mixes used for it. That is why results and quality vary, and why it matters who performs it and which products they use.

Mesotherapy improves hydration and can make skin look plumper and a little firmer, but it is not a true tightening treatment. For loose skin, skin tightening or other firming treatments are a better fit.

Many clients notice a fresher, more hydrated look within a few days of the first session. Fuller results usually show after a course of three to five sessions two weeks apart, and vary from person to person.

No. Mesotherapy is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, because the ingredients have not been studied for safety at those times. Wait until afterwards, and talk to your doctor if you have questions.

Microneedling makes tiny channels in the skin to trigger collagen repair. Mesotherapy adds a vitamin and hyaluronic acid mix into the skin, by micro-injection or through microneedling. Microneedling targets texture and scars; mesotherapy focuses on hydration and glow.

Kybella is a prescription deoxycholic acid injection approved to reduce fat under the chin, and it must be given by a licensed medical provider. Mesotherapy for skin uses vitamins and hyaluronic acid for hydration and does not dissolve fat.

GFC, or growth factor concentrate, is made from your own blood, similar to PRP, and is mostly used on the scalp for thinning hair. Mesotherapy uses a ready-made mix of vitamins and hyaluronic acid, mainly for skin hydration and glow.

Done by a trained provider with sterile products, facial mesotherapy is generally well tolerated. Common side effects are short-lived redness, small bumps and tiny bruises. Infection and reactions are uncommon, so share your health history at the consultation.

They do different jobs. Botox is a prescription injection that relaxes the muscles behind expression lines such as frown lines. Mesotherapy does not affect muscles. It hydrates and improves skin quality. Some clients use both, spaced about two weeks apart.

Wait if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have an active infection, acne flare or cold sore in the area. Talk to your doctor first if you take blood thinners, bruise easily, have an autoimmune condition or an ingredient allergy.
