Is Meso Injection (Mesotherapy) Really as Safe and Effective as They Say?

The secret of Mesotherapy (what spas don't want you to know)

🔑 Mesotherapy (micro-point meso injection) is an ideal, minimally invasive method that tackles skin concerns at their root. By injecting valuable active ingredients directly into the dermis, it delivers nutrients to the skin or creates a biological stimulus that helps the skin renew itself. However, the overuse of Meso injections and excessive marketing tricks have led many people to hold unrealistically high expectations and end up disappointed. Let's explore what this method really is with Lunaria Skin Lab!

WHAT IS MESOTHERAPY & THE CURRENT STATE OF MESO INJECTION IN VIETNAM

What is mesotherapy?

Developed in France in 1952, Mesotherapy is now widely used and has won the trust of many skincare enthusiasts thanks to its safety, high effectiveness and reasonable cost.

Mesotherapy, also known as Meso micro-injection, is a treatment that injects a very small amount of medication or nutrients directly into the skin to nourish it or create a biological stimulus, producing the desired treatment response. Because nutrients are delivered directly deep into the skin, the results can be many times greater than with conventional skincare products.

Where the "injectables" come from

Mesotherapy is not the name of an active ingredient but the name of a method. There are many manufacturers of meso injection ingredients on the market, from many sources and at countless different prices. That's why very few beauty establishments will tell you exactly which meso ingredient they inject into your skin. At Lunaria, we are proud to use the world's leading premium products with full FDA certification. What's more, we will "openly disclose" the brand name and ingredients of everything that goes into your skin.

Which facial concerns does Mesotherapy treat?

– Provides essential nutrients for damaged and ageing skin during treatment and recovery.

– Stimulates collagen production, skin regeneration, tissue regeneration and wound healing.

– Tightens sagging ageing areas of skin that lack natural fat, improving their appearance and boosting collagen production

– Skin rejuvenation: Meso injections deliver nutrients into the skin that naturally stimulate collagen growth, helping the skin become firm and radiant.

– Skin brightening: The nutrients injected into the skin help remove and prevent the formation of pigmentation. That's why Mesotherapy is considered an effective support for pigmentation disorders such as melasma, dark spots, freckles and post-acne marks.

What are the problems with Meso injections (Mesotherapy) in Vietnam?

Compared with surface-level methods such as applying cosmetics, Meso injections (Mesotherapy) offer major benefits, so they are sought after by many women and bring spas a lot of revenue.

The overwhelming popularity of this method has led to greed. Few spas invest the time and money in proper training; many just want to profit quickly by offering it to clients, assuming the risks are too small to worry about.

EXPERT KNOWLEDGE AND HANDS-ON SKILLS

With the beauty industry growing unchecked, spas are popping up "like mushrooms after the rain". Many spas confidently offer Mesotherapy without holding any specialist qualification. This has led to many unfortunate consequences for clients, because the spas assume it is a "minimally invasive" therapy.

Some even import products of unknown origin out of a desire for low prices and high profits, or simply a lack of understanding. This has led to many unfortunate outcomes, such as injection scars, dark spots or, more seriously, mild tissue necrosis. These are the results of placing trust in beauty salons that lack credibility and skill and are driven by greed.

If these signs appear, the patient needs to be re-examined and treated with antibiotics. Infections are common when Meso injections are performed in environments that are not guaranteed to be free of bacteria.

WHERE SHOULD YOU HAVE MESOTHERAPY?

Although meso injection is a non-invasive injection method, there can still be risks if it is performed at a poor-quality, unreliable facility or by an inexperienced doctor.

So please research the clinic carefully and consult your doctor to understand how your body is likely to respond before deciding on Mesotherapy.

There are currently many beauty clinics on the market offering Meso injections. Prices vary from place to place depending on the source of the products, professional experience and each facility's costs.

According to Lunaria Skin Lab, choosing where to have Meso injections should start with understanding your own needs:

• What skin concerns do you have, and what do you want to improve?
• What is your maximum budget?
• What matters most to you: effectiveness, safety or price?

After that, equip yourself with the right knowledge from dermatologists and research carefully. However, in today's climate of "Thach Sanh has few, Ly Thong has many" (good people are few, scammers are many), you also need some basic criteria for choosing your specialist.

YOUR SKIN CONDITION MUST BE CAREFULLY EXAMINED

Although considered a safe therapy, Mesotherapy can still cause unfortunate complications. Typically, injections are contraindicated for skin with inflamed acne, infections, blood clotting disorders or allergies to any of the ingredients. So choose a reputable facility with in-depth knowledge and strong technique.

Some criteria to consider:

• The specialists' degrees and certifications
• Expert knowledge: do they give you clear, coherent answers and suitable solutions?
• Real cases of successful treatment (client feedback)
• Business culture
• The products used in treatment

But sometimes even these things can be faked or exaggerated.

SHOULD YOU HAVE MESO INJECTIONS?

Everyone's body is different, and so are their lifestyle and nutrition. To get an accurate yes or no answer, you should see a specialist in person.

It is essential to meet in person with a skin master – someone with professional experience gained from treating hundreds of patients.

Only by examining your skin in person can the type of skin problem be identified. It's impossible to judge accurately from phone photos taken in varying lighting.
