Dr.

Michel Pistor 1952 Non surgical relatively painless technique that is used worldwide with a broad range of indications (rheumatology, sports, vasc. Diseases, pain relief, .) It is a technique of using microinjections of conventional or homeopathic compounds (A.A., vitamins, minerals,.) to deliver a healing or corrective treatment to a specific area.

Dr. Michel Pistor (1924-2003) performed clinical research and founded the field of mesotherapy. Multi-national research in intradermal therapy culminated with Pistor's work from 1948 to 1952 in human mesotherapy treatments. The French press coined the term Mesotherapy in 1958. The French Academy of Medicine recognized Mesotherapy as a Specialty of Medicine in 1987. Popular throughout European countries and South America, mesotherapy is practiced by approximately 18,000 physicians worldwide.

Definition:
(From Greek mesos, "middle", and therapy from Greek therapeia, "to treat medically") It is a non-surgical cosmetic medicine treatment.

Mesotherapy employs multiple injections of pharmaceutical and homeopathic medications, plant extracts, vitamins, and other ingredients into the subcutaneous fat.

No Needle Mesotherapy

Interwaved Modulated Radiofrequency (IMRF)


Alternative to traditional mesotherapy No needle No pain Reliable Efficient

Electronic impulses

High frequency Low intensity

Permeabilising cellular membranes (altering membrane potential) Electroporation of lipids bilayer (biological stress)

Advantages over other transdermal transport techniques or systems:


There is no electronic contact with the patients. So there is no risk of chemical burns, pain or inflammation. It is not invasive It has no return electrode (ground plate) It is not contraindicated in prosthesis There is no molecular ionization of the transported substances

Advantages over other transdermal transport techniques or systems (cont.):


It is valid for ionic, non-ionic and lipidic substances The speed of transcutaneous penetration of the hydrolipid products is approximately 1 gram per 60 seconds It does not require any conductor gel It has no secondary effects Practical, transportable and easy to handle It introduces substances of any molecular weight

Indicated in:
Obesity Cellulite Flaccidity Facial treatments Stretch marks
Electroporation by radiofrequency is a very reliable techniques which can be adapted to multiple therapies and opens up the way to numerous possibilities.

Localized fat deposits are areas where fat is accumulated and does not disappear with diet and exercise. They are found at the face, jowl, neck, arm, abdomen, back, thigh and hip areas.
They can be aggravated by the aging process, hormonal changes, poor dietary habits, lack of exercise and slow metabolism conditions.

Fat cells are metabolically active and are well supplied by blood vessels.

The fatty acids come from 3 main sources:


1. 2. 3.

Dietary fats. Fat produced in the liver. Excess blood glucose. There are two types of fat; Brown fat and white fat. A fifth to a quarter of adult body weight is made from white adipose tissue.

Brown fat assist in burning energy / calories, generates heat and appears as small lipid droplets. White fat is the conventional type of fat which stores energy and is full of lipid droplets. White fat is always beneath the skin and is the cause of obesity. Adipose tissue is the largest storehouse of energy in the body (in the form of triglycerides) and makes up 15-20% of the body weight in men and 20-25% of body weight in women. Men are more likely to get "potbellies" because their fat is stored around the abdomen, whereas women tend to get heavier hips, thighs and rear ends.

Hormones cause the deposition of fat in specific areas of the body. Aging process slows down metabolic rate, allowing fatty tissue deposits. Poor dietary habits and sedentary lifestyle.
Genetic.

Patients with small localized fat deposits.


Patients not suitable for operations. Patients aware of mesotherapy.

Phosphatidylcholine.
Na deoxycholate. Caffeine. Vitamins and anti-oxidants. Ma huang herb ( ephedra).

L-carnitine.

3-6 sessions at 2-4 weeks interval. 250mg of phosphatidylcholine (250mg/5mL) injected into effected area. Patient can be seated or lying down Better to measure diameter of area to be treated before session. Anesthesia ( optional and local ). Sterilization with alcohol swap. Multiple injections with a 10 -12 mm long needle ( to reach subcutis).

Injections given at 1-2cm. Interval.


Takes from 10-15 min.

All patients asked to follow a natural healthy diet.


Lots of water is used to flush toxins that are eliminated from the body along with dissolved fat. Exercise is needed to circulate the medications used, with either walking or another form of aerobic activity, three times a week. Local anti-inflammatory may be used twice daily for bruising, irritation and discomfort e.g. reparil gel.

Bruising. Redness, irritation and itching over the injected area which may last to 3 days post session. Edema : Traumatic from injection. Lipolysis. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Hematoma formation.
Patient dissatisfaction.

Pregnancy. Lactation. Diabetes mellitus. Bleeding tendency. Psychic patient. Children. Generalized obesity. Targeting weight reduction.

What to Expect :

2-4 cm decrease in the diameter of the injected part 2 weeks after the session. No weight loss.
Right patient selection . Optimum results.

Surgical Procedure Removes fat cells Cannot be used where cellulite is 2 weeks down time Wear restrictive garments for weeks Weight gain back in extratreated sites. Significant bruising and pain Causes scarring Takes up to 3 months to see results Causes loose and weak skin places

Non-invasive procedure Removes fat from cells Used wherever there is cellulite No down time Wear loose clothing after treatment Weight gain back where it was
Minimal bruising and Reduces scarring Results seen in weeks. Tightens and strengthens skin .

Phosphatidyl choline has been recently tried with variable results.

L-carntitine aslo has been tried .

Cellulite is an accumulation of fat, fluid, and toxins trapped in a hardened network of connective tissue fibers that hold down the skin causing the "dimpling" effect. The fat cells inflate, causing a rippling and puckering of the skin, commonly referred to as orange peel skin.

Lymphatic and venous circulation are poor in these areas.

Mesotherapy is used to cause an increase in venous and lymphatic flow, as well as elimination of fat and dimpling in the area.
The medications used in Mesotherapy destroy the connective tissue bands and melt the trapped fat, creating a smooth, dimple-free appearance.

Patient who is seeking treatment for cellulite


Possibly overweight, but not obese Not interested in surgery Wants a fast, easy, procedure that shows good results

Treatments will depend on how much cellulite and dimpling the patient has in the problem area. Treatment can last 15-45 minutes.
Involves injecting several small amounts of medications and vitamins into the middle layer of skin.

Optional anesthesia.

Isoproterenol (-Agonist) Hyaluronidase, collagenase Ephedrine (Sympathomimetic amine) Calcium pyruvate (Krebs cycle metabolite) Carnitine (amino acid derivative) Ma huang herb ( ephedra) Fat burner; is inhibited for systemic use in USA. Gingko biloba extract platelet aggregation factor inhibitor, endothelium derived relaxing factor . Artichoke ( circulatory stimulator)

Improved blood flow to the treated area.


Dissolves excess fat deposits. Removes fibrotic, hardened connective tissue. Improved lymphatic drainage. No downtime.

No downtime procedure. The treatment is permanent and the results are measurable as long as patients do not gain more than fifteen pounds.

Most people will require from 6-10 sessions to achieve results at 1-2 weeks intervals.
Dieting and exercise will help to maintain one's results over the long term. In 4 weeks, a patient's skin appears significantly smoother. Most patients lose anywhere from 2-4 inches where their cellulite is treated.

Composition

Phospholipids
Phosphatidylcholine is an essential Phospholipid (in literature also mentioned as EPL), which is specially high concentrated in membrans of adipocytes and Hepatocytes.

Sphingomyelin (70/30 %), another important phospholipid, is highly concentrated in nerves and brain. It has a different composition in comparison with PC, being esterified with Ceramid-1-phospate to long chained fatty acids.

This leads to a resistance of nerve tissue

against the detergent effect of medications

Criteria

Different types of fat tissue


Excellent to treat: Soft fat = pudding fat You must see it with your fingertips! Less successfully to be treated: Firm, tough fat, it contains a lot of binding tissue

Patient selection

Criteria

Pearls
Most important: The pre selection of patients

Don't let yourself be persuaded by the demands of patients to do non-promising treatments. Patients often are very challenging! Pre-select carefully if suitable and do not promise too much Results of facial procedures often are very satisfying Sometimes the treatment of inner thighs is more important than the lateral parts of the thighs. Be aware that good results with saddlebags can only be achieved if they consist of soft and gentle fat. Very tight and substantial rubbery fat-tissue is stubborn and has a less good prognosis Treat obese persons only with respect to the fact that lipolysis can only be an additional help for their weight-problem. Cooperation with an plastic surgeon has proven to be very satisfying for both parties.
