In the past decade, needling treatments have taken patients’ attention for the numerous benefits it provides. This method that some dermatologists use to treat different skin conditions helps address many skin-related complaints, including wrinkles, scarring, acne and hyperpigmentation etc. Basically, mesotherapy and micro-needling both involve needle techniques; however, there are many significant differences too such as needle length (with micro needling having a much smaller needle than Meso therapy), depth of penetration in the skin (with micro needling going deeper into the dermis than mesotherapy) and speed of delivery during treatment (where micro needling delivers ingredients at a faster rate than mesotherapy).
When making decisions between micro-needling and mesotherapy for aesthetic treatment, it really comes down to the results you’re looking to achieve. If you want more intense results with little downtime then I would recommend going with Mesotherapy however if you’re looking for less intense results with more downtime then Micro-Needling would be better suited for your needs.
What is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy and Micro-needling treatments are both popular anti-aging treatment options that can help reduce the appearance of scars, wrinkles, and other skin conditions like hyperpigmentation or acne.
The main difference between these two treatments is that micro-needling uses shorter needles than mesotherapy does. A micro-needling treatment will use needles that are about 1mm long whereas a mesotherapy treatment will use needles that are about 3mm long. Also, a micro-needling treatment doesn’t go as deep into the skin as a mesotherapy treatment does because it uses shorter needles. And finally, with a micro-needling treatment, the injection happens much faster than it does with a mesotherapy treatment because the needle length is smaller!
Which type of client suits mesotherapy?
- Acne scarring
- Loose skin
- Dull, dehydrated and lackluster skin
- Hyperpigmentation
- Wrinkles and fine lines
Mesotherapy is a great option for those who have skin pigmentation issues, like dark circles under the eye, as well dark or discolored patches of skin that can be an unwanted issue.
The injections contain essential ingredients for long-term healthy skin that also help to remove sluggish toxins from the skin cells too. This can help to combat dark circles under the eye, as well dark or discolored patches of skin that can be an unwanted issue.
Clients in their twenties, thirties and beyond who are seeking a little added glow and luster to their skin will be most interested in mesotherapy.
Mesotherapy or Micro-needling? Which will suit my clinic best?
We know that with skin pen devices we could adjust needle depth, which means you can achieve more precise and controlled treatment.
Devices also use a vertical stamping method with ultrafine needles, so you can have a less painful treatment and less downtime compared to other aesthetic procedures for skin rejuvenation.
Treatments are usually quicker with Micro-needling than Mesotherapy particularly as speed can be adjusted on your device. Having quicker treatment times is going to result in booking more clients into your diary and therefore increase your return on investment.
