Mesotherapy
is an exciting technique developed in France by Dr. Pistor
over 50 years ago. The procedure has been used to dramatically
reduce cellulite and fat from individual parts of the body,
an actual "spot fat treatment". A small amount of medication,
vitamins and supplements are injected into the fat and connective
tissue of the skin (called the mesoderm) and has been used
in the United States to treat many cosmetic and medical conditions
including the spot reduction of cellulite and fat.
The
promise of a non-surgical, permanent method for fat removal
and body contouring is obviously very appealing, but mesotherapy
is not proven to be the miracle cure to a thinner you.
Touted
as a non-surgical alternative to liposuction, mesotherapy
involves injecting medications and plant extracts into layers
of fat and connective tissue under the skin. The injected
ingredients may include agents that are used to open blood
vessels, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, enzymes,
nutrients, antibiotics and hormones. Mesotherapy may be used
in conjunction with dietary modification, hormone replacement
therapy, exercise and nutritional supplements.
Although
the practice of mesotherapy has been around for decades in
Europe, it has only recently been introduced in the United
States. The types of drugs used vary from physician to physician
as does the quantity and frequency of injections.
Some
of the drugs used are Phosphatidylcholine, plant extracts(phytochemicals),
vitamins,micronutrients,hormones and various unknown materials.
Phosphatidylcholine,a bile compound, is responsible for lipids
emulsification from diet. Its iv use markedly reduces atheromatus
plaques. It accelerates cell membrane receptor property, increased
insulin sensitivity and accelerated lypolysis
There
is no information on what happens to fatty acids once they
leave the targeted area or how the various ingradients affect
the body's organs and other tissues
Anti Aging Medicine
Have
you ever seen someone who looked much older than they should?
How manytimes have you wondered how another person could look
so young for their age? That’s the difference in biological
age and chronological age that so many people find to be a
complete mystery. So how do you turn back the clock…or at
least slow it down?
Our
bodies age at different rates.. The goal of anti-aging medicine
is to invest in preventing illness early on, so that your
middle and older years can be vigorous and productive. You
are not destined to lead the same existence as the generation
before you.
The
majority of our health care costs are spent on illnesses that
affect only those at the end of their life. Many physicians
are tired of this trend, and some have decided to do something
about it. Anti-aging medicine is a key tool in the fight against
time.
Being
healthy later in life means a lot more than not being sick.
Anti-aging medicine is a broad description for many different
preventive and aesthetic kinds of medical care. Each physician
will have different methods for promoting good health, so
it’s important to talk with your physician about their philosophy
of anti-aging medicine. Find a doctor who makes you feel comfortable
with discussing your entire health situation and has remedies
and methods that are appropriate for your lifestyle and goals.
Lot
of work is going on to provide a list of safe plant extracts
of medicinal value to be used in micro injectable doses in
mesotherapy.Soon this information shall be available on this
site.
