Preparing for a skinbooster or mesotherapy session

Skinboosters, mesotherapy, polynucleotides: these products do not fill, they hydrate and stimulate. The result is not seen after one session but after a course, and it needs maintaining. That is the first thing to know before booking.

What to expect

A course usually comprises three sessions three to four weeks apart, then maintenance every six to twelve months. Each session lasts around thirty minutes, numbing cream included.

Preparing, 72 hours before

The same rules as any injection: no aspirin or anti-inflammatories for three days, no alcohol the night before. Arrive with clean skin, without make-up or cream.

Schedule the session at the end of the day or on a Friday: the small bumps left by the injections are visible for a few hours.

What to tell us

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, an active skin infection on the area, a herpes flare-up, anticoagulant therapy, or a known allergy to any component.

How the session goes

The product is delivered in regular micro-injections across the area, or in more widely spaced points depending on the technique. The grid is adapted to your skin, not standardised.

Afterwards, and what to do

Small bumps and redness are normal and fade within hours, sometimes overnight. No make-up for twelve hours, no hammam or intense exercise for twenty-four hours, sun protection for a week.

When to call us back

Call if redness spreads beyond the treated area, if pain appears after several calm days, or in case of fever. A late reaction can be treated, but it should not be waited out.

None of the above replaces the prior consultation: it alone says whether this procedure is right for you, and on what terms.
