Mesotherapy Facts Vs. Fiction

Cellulite is an upsetting skin disorder for many women and men. Cellulite commonly occurs at the back of upper thighs, around the buttocks and lower legs. Besides being unattractive, it is also lumpy, bumpy and causes unevenness in skin texture. Over the years, many treatments have been developed to remove cellulite from the body. SO far, none has proven to be either very successful or cheap. Liposuction perhaps works the best but it is invasive, painful, has downtime and is expensive. Now, one of the latest in a long line of non surgical treatments for cellulite is mesotherapy

What is mesotherapy?

If there ever was a treatment which had SCAM written all over it, mesotherapy would be a prize winner.

So what exactly is it?


Mesotherapy is a non-surgical technique of getting rid of fat pockets and cellulite from most parts of your body (it also gets rid of your money). The procedure is very simple to perform. The physician injects a special formula of chemicals into the fat pockets. These chemicals do magic- dissolve the fat. The eventual result is a soft, smoother, and aesthetically pleasing contour line of the body.

What is this chemical formula?

Well, that is a state secret- only the company’s knows it. Just imagine most consumers complain about proper labels on food and medications- many consumers want to know what exactly they are buying or eating- but not so when it comes to mesotherapy. It is shocking to know that doctors do not reveal the nature of this chemical formula- and yet people allow themselves to be injected. Would one take a pill which has no label? Would one ingest an unknown medication found in the cupboard at home? Consumers, please wake up!

Has mesotherapy been used elsewhere?

Looks like Europeans are always guinea pigs (suckers) for anything new that is invented. Mesotherapy has been widely used in Europe to treat localized fat pockets and cellulite from various parts of the body. Whether Mesotherapy works in European is questionable because the majority of testimonials are extremely negative.
