Mesotherapy is a non-surgical cosmetic medicine treatment promoted for cellulite treatment, liposculpting and body contouring. Mesotherapy employ the technique of multiple injections of pharmaceutical and homeopathic medications, plant extracts, vitamins, and other ingredients into the subcutaneous fat. Mesotherapy injections are reported to target adipose fat cells, apparently by inducing rupture and cell death among adipocytes. Physicians specializing in non-surgical cosmetic medicine or operating medical spas are the most common practitioners of this type of treatment. There are numerous cocktails of medications and homeopathic preparations that are used in mesotherapy. There is no conclusive research or proof that these chemical compounds work to target adipose (fat cells) specifically. However, physicians have been concerned about both the efficacy and safety of mesotherapy, arguing that a lack of scientific study makes mesotherapy a fad with potentially dangerous side effects.
