The duration of results varies according to individual sensitivity and the specific treatment. In general, the effects last several months. Regular maintenance sessions are required to maintain the benefits of the treatment.
Many patients are no doubt familiar with injectable treatments aimed at improving the appearance of the skin. Two popular techniques are mesotherapy and Skinboosters. Although they share some similarities, they have distinct objectives and methods. In this section, we explain the key differences between mesotherapy and Skinboosters to help you choose the treatment best suited to your needs or those of your patients. However, it is important to have the advice of an experienced doctor who can assess the needs and expectations of each patient and recommend the most suitable treatment.
Therapeutic objectives
Mesotherapy: Mesotherapy is a technique that involves injecting small quantities of products (such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, peptides and sometimes hyaluronic acid in low concentrations) just below the surface of the skin. It is used to treat a wide range of skin problems, such as dehydration, fine wrinkles, loss of elasticity, brown spots and even certain hair disorders.
Skinboosters : Skinboosters are composed of finely cross-linked hyaluronic acid specifically designed to deeply hydrate the skin and improve its texture. They are ideal for restoring the skin's natural radiance, reducing fine lines and improving firmness and elasticity.
Injection technique
Both treatments use micro-injections, but the depth and injection technique differ.
Mesotherapy : Mesotherapy injections are generally performed at a more superficial depth, in the papillary or upper reticular dermis. A conventional syringe or mesotherapy gun is used to deliver small doses of product evenly over a given area.
Skinboosters: Skinboosters are injected deeper than mesotherapy, into the mid to deep dermis. The injection technique can vary: fan, point or continuous subdermal.
Results and duration
Mesotherapy : The results of mesotherapy are visible immediately after the session and optimal after a series of 3 to 5 sessions, 2 to 4 weeks apart. These results can last from 3 to 6 months, depending on the treatment and the patient's lifestyle.
Skinboosters : Skinboosters offer longer-lasting hydration and improved skin texture. Results are visible after the first session, but in some cases a second session at 4 to 6 weeks is recommended to obtain the best results. The effect of Skinboosters can last from 6 to 12 months, or even longer, depending on the type of product used and the individual characteristics of the skin.

Mesotherapy is a beauty treatment appreciated by many patients for its revitalising and rejuvenating effects on the skin.
Patient feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with noticeable improvements in skin hydration, elasticity and radiance.
Many also report a reduction in the signs of ageing, such as fine lines and pigmentation spots. However, these results vary considerably.
Mesotherapy is often praised for its beneficial effect on skin quality and even skin tone. Feedback also indicates that the treatment has minimal side effects, making it a popular option for those seeking a non-invasive solution to improve the appearance of the skin.
Mesotherapy for hair is a treatment of choice for patients seeking to treat hair loss and improve hair density.
Patients report a significant reduction in hair loss and a visible improvement in hair thickness and vitality after just a few sessions. Mesotherapy for hair is well tolerated, making it a great option for those who want to strengthen their hair naturally and effectively.
Mesotherapy is generally well tolerated by most patients, but how it feels depends on individual sensitivity and the area being treated. Some patients may feel a slight stinging or tingling sensation.
The injections are carried out with very fine needles. For particularly sensitive patients, an anaesthetic cream can be applied before the procedure, but this is not recommended as it reduces the absorption of the injected products by the skin.
Yes, mesotherapy is a risk-free procedure when carried out by a qualified and experienced doctor. The products used are biocompatible and specifically formulated for this type of injection. However, as with any treatment, it is important to discuss your medical history and expectations with your doctor before starting.
After a mesotherapy session, it is advisable to avoid exposure to the sun, strenuous physical activity and hot baths for at least 24 to 48 hours. It is also advisable to use a moisturising cream and avoid washing your face on the day of the session.
Mesotherapy is ideal if you want to improve the appearance of your skin or treat hair loss non-invasively. A consultation with a doctor is necessary to determine whether the patient is a good candidate for this treatment.
For the season, it is advisable to inject before exposure to intense heat to protect the skin and afterwards to rehydrate it.
Yes, mesotherapy can be used to treat hair loss and improve hair density. Injections into the scalp stimulate the hair follicles, encouraging regrowth and strengthening existing hair.
Mesotherapy is a regulated medical practice. Only doctors can carry it out.
For aesthetic mesotherapy, we recommend consulting an experienced, qualified doctor who, ideally, has a diploma in mesotherapy.
The U225 gun is a cutting-edge medical device used in mesotherapy to deliver precise, controlled injections. Originally designed for delicate medical applications, the gun has been adapted for use in aesthetic medicine to provide a more comfortable experience and optimise results. Thanks to its advanced technology, the U225 gun can regulate the depth, speed and volume of injections, thereby reducing pain: the procedure is completely painless.
In aesthetic mesotherapy, the products injected are carefully selected according to the specific needs of the patient and the objectives of the treatment. Generally, the mixture injected contains vitamins (such as vitamins A, C and E), minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, hyaluronic acid and other active ingredients, the choice of which is personalised according to the needs of the skin and the indication.
Mesotherapy is recognised for its effectiveness in the field of aesthetic medicine, particularly in the treatment of various skin and hair problems.
By injecting a cocktail of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients directly into the surface layers of the skin, this method stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, improves microcirculation and deeply moisturises, resulting in firmer, more radiant and visibly younger-looking skin.
For people suffering from hair loss, wrinkles, sagging skin or stretch marks, this procedure delivers convincing results with a gradual and lasting improvement in the quality of the skin or scalp.
However, the effectiveness of mesotherapy depends on a number of factors, including the regularity of the sessions, the quality of the products used and the individual characteristics of the patient. Several sessions are required to obtain optimum results, and maintenance treatments are necessary to maintain the effects.
Mesotherapy and microneedling are two popular techniques in aesthetic medicine, but they differ in technique, results and objectives.
Mesotherapy is an injection technique that delivers essential nutrients directly to the skin. The aim is to nourish, hydrate and revitalise the skin from within, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture and elasticity.
Microneedling uses a roller or device equipped with micro-needles that create tiny perforations in the skin's surface. These micro-perforations trigger a natural healing process, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. Although certain serums or products are often applied after or during microneedling, microneedling itself does not rely on the injection of substances. It is particularly effective in improving skin texture and dilated pores.
The two techniques can be complementary. The choice between the two depends on the patient's specific needs and the desired results.
No, mesotherapy and mesolift are not the same thing, although they both use a subcutaneous injection technique.
Mesotherapy is a method used on both the face and body for aesthetic or medical reasons (e.g. muscular pain).
Mesolift is specifically a form of mesotherapy applied to the face. Its main aim is to rejuvenate the skin by providing essential nutrients, vitamins and minerals, helping to improve its elasticity, firmness and complexion.
Yes, mesolift can be combined with other aesthetic medical treatments to obtain more complete and synergistic results. Before the mesolift, a peel can be performed to remove dead skin cells and prepare the ground for better absorption of the injected products. After the mesolift, radiofrequency or LED light therapy sessions can be considered to stimulate collagen production and improve skin radiance.
