Mesotherapy: Guides
Written for someone deciding about their own skin rather than studying the subject. What the word does and does not commit a clinic to, how to read an ingredient list, which uses have support and which have only a brochure, what a course of sessions means for your calendar, what the technique cannot reach, and when the honest answer is to spend nothing.

Start with the list, not the name
Arrange an assessment and ask what would actually be injected, as a list of substances rather than a treatment name. We will say which parts have evidence behind them, what a course would involve, and whether anything should be done at all.
