What is cellulite?

Up to 95% per cent of British women suffer from cellulite.

Three out of four women in the UK say cellulite is constant problem.

Even celebrities, who have access to the best health and diet advice in the world, aren't immune. Young and old, underweight and overweight, all women are subject to cellulite and the problem only becomes worse with time.


Cellulite commonly appears on the hips, abdomen, buttocks and legs, but is not caused by being overweight, as many believe.

Gradually, the lumpy orange peel effect of cellulite becomes more pronounced.

What is Mesotherapy?

Originally a medical technique devised in 1952 by Frenchman Dr Michel Pistor to treat conditions such as Rheumatology, Sports Traumatology, infectious diseases and vascular diseases and to improve circulation, Mesotherapy has subsequently proved extremely successful in the treatment of cellulite. Inch loss can also be effectively managed with the use of Mesotherapy.

The treatment stimulates the mesoderm, which is the layer of fat under the skin, which in turn helps to disperse the cellulite.


How does Mesotherapy work?

Mesotherapy involves injecting small amounts of homeopathic medicine immediately beneath the surface of the skin.

Mesotherapy melts the fat in the skin and breaks up the network of connective tissue fibers that form trapping fat cells and resulting in cellulite.

The fat dissolves and, as occurs when fat is broken down during typical weight loss, is carried through the bloodstream and excreted by kidneys and bowel.

How long do the treatments last?

Each treatment lasts about ten minutes . After the treatment you can return to normal activities.

Treatment may be carried out immediately after an initial consultation, at which point you will be informed as to how many treatments you will require.

Injections are given once a week over a period of 10 to 20 weeks.

What results should I expect?

The treatment is long-lasting and the results are measurable. When the desired effects are attained, all that is required is annual maintenance over a 4-6 week period.

Superb results can be achieved and those being treated look and feel better both during and after treatment. Overall, with a moderate amount of lifestyle change, Mesotherapy can produce dramatic improvements with people losing up to 2cm from the circumference of their thighs after only 6 sessions.

Are there any side effects?

A common side effect of mesotherapy is bruising, which generally resolves after a week.


What is the cost?
