Cellulite Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is also used in the treatment of cellulite, which is seen in various degrees in 85% of women today. Mesotherapy prevents the formation of edema in the tissue by correcting the microcirculation, breaks down the fat and reduces the fat nodules. It can improve the appearance of cellulite by restructuring the impaired connective tissue.
What is Cellulite?
Cellulite is the formation of an indented orange peel appearance on the skin as a result of deterioration in subcutaneous fat and connective tissue for various reasons.
Why is Cellulite More Common in Women?
In women, while the fat cells under the skin run parallel to the skin, the connective tissue bonds that separate these cells are positioned vertically. These ligaments shorten over time due to reasons such as the female hormone estrogen, genetic structure and inactivity. This shortening of the ligaments causes the skin to collapse, and the slipping of the fat cells to the skin causes protrusions and thus a bumpy orange peel appearance.
With the addition of some factors to this structural predisposition in women, the development of cellulite in varying degrees is facilitated.
Today, it is seen in 85% of women in varying degrees. It most commonly occurs in the hips, legs, lower abdomen, but can also be seen in the arms.
What Causes Cellulite?
In addition to genetic and hormonal factors in the development of cellulite, unbalanced diet rich in fat and carbohydrates, sedentary life, smoking, alcohol habits, tight clothing and high-heeled shoes preferences and negative effects of circulation are also blamed.
The presence of cellulite causes social anxiety in the person. Therefore, in the treatment process, some spiritual and material abuses may be faced with unrealistic promises. The presence and degree of cellulite and other accompanying problems should be evaluated by a specialist physician and a personalized treatment protocol should be determined.
How Is Cellulite Treated?
The treatment of cellulite should be multifaceted due to the variety of causes that facilitate its occurrence.

It provides the opportunity to apply the therapeutic dose of the drug to the problem area without the risk of systemic side effects.
What Does Cellulite Mesotherapy Do?
While ready-made drug mixtures can be used in mesotherapy, the physician can also create a drug cocktail according to the patient’s condition. The cocktail contains drugs that will accelerate and regulate blood circulation, transmit the signals of the breakdown of fats, and regulate the organization of the connective tissue. Therefore, mesotherapy prevents the formation of edema in the tissue by correcting the microcirculation, breaks down the fat and reduces the fat nodules. It improves the appearance of cellulite by restructuring the damaged connective tissue.
