Cellulite treatment in Geneva

What is anti-cellulite mesotherapy?

Anti-cellulite mesotherapy is an aesthetic medicine technique which, in a progressive and natural way, improves the appearance of orange peel skin, reduces dimples and firms the tissues.

Indeed, thanks to targeted micro-injections of active substances such as L-carnitine, vitamins, trace elements or even draining agents, mesotherapy acts directly on the areas concerned.

Thus, this treatment helps optimize blood and lymphatic circulation, while stimulating fat metabolism and gradually improving the quality of the skin.

In addition, mesotherapy represents a gentle and personalized approach, particularly appreciated for its natural effect and its good tolerance.

What is cellulite?

Cellulite corresponds to a change in the subcutaneous tissue linked to several often associated mechanisms.

Indeed, different factors can gradually promote the appearance of orange peel skin:

• hypertrophy of fat cells;
• water retention;
• slowing of blood and lymphatic circulation;
• fibrosis of the connective septa;
• skin sagging.

As a result, the skin becomes less smooth and less homogeneous.

Cellulite mainly appears at:

• thighs;
• buttocks;
• hips;
• of the abdomen;
• as well as knees.

How does anti-cellulite mesotherapy work?

Mesotherapy consists of injecting very small quantities of active ingredients directly into the superficial and middle dermis using very fine needles.

From then on, the active ingredients act locally in order to target the different mechanisms involved in cellulite.

Thus, these assets can contribute to:

• stimulate microcirculation;
• promote drainage;
• support fat mobilization;
• reduce fluid retention;
• improve skin firmness;
• gradually smooth the appearance of the skin.

Furthermore, the sessions also help improve skin quality and tone while promoting a feeling of lighter legs.

Substances used

Depending on the patient's needs and the quality of the tissues, Dr Sandrine Grept-Locher adapts the injected cocktails in a personalized manner.

Thus, the formulations may notably include:

• L-carnitine;
• B group vitamins;
• magnesium;
• organic silicon;
• antioxidants;
• as well as venotonic and draining agents.

In this way, the treatment acts globally to improve circulation, drainage, skin quality and the appearance of dimples.

Treated areas

Anti-cellulite mesotherapy can be carried out on different areas of the body particularly affected by orange peel skin and sagging skin.

Thus, the most frequently treated areas are:

• the thighs;
• the buttocks;
• hips;
• the abdomen;
• the inside of the knees;
• as well as the arms.

Furthermore, the treatment can be adapted according to the quality of the skin, the location of the dimples and the specific needs of each patient.

Progress of a session

Typically, a session lasts around 30 to 45 minutes.

During the treatment, Dr Sandrine Grept-Locher performs superficial micro-injections using very fine needles. Thus, the injections generally remain well tolerated.

In addition, resuming daily activities can usually be done quickly after the session.

However, slight redness, transient sensitivity or a few small bruises may sometimes appear temporarily in the treated areas.

Furthermore, in order to obtain optimal and lasting results, Dr Sandrine Grept-Locher generally recommends a protocol of several sessions adapted to each patient.

What results to expect?

Gradually, anti-cellulite mesotherapy visibly improves the quality of the skin and the appearance of the areas concerned.

Thus, the treatment can contribute to:

• improve skin texture;
• reduce the orange peel appearance;
• provide a feeling of lighter legs;
• firm the tissues;
• make the skin more toned, smoother and more even.

In addition, the results are reinforced when they are accompanied by a global approach combining:

• a balanced diet;
• regular physical activity;
• good hydration;

as well as personalized field support.
