Whats the difference between mesotherapy and liposuction?
Liposuction removes fat cells from given areas of the body, mesotherapy mobilizes the fat cells which are then excreted. After a liposuction procedure, there is a risk of fat being redeposited in areas of the body that were not problematic before the procedure. For example, a patient who had liposuction done on the hips and buttocks may gain weight afterwards on the back or shoulders. This has not been the case with mesotherapy.

Liposuction may leave a lumpy appearance to the skin in area that was treated. The skin is left smooth after mesotherapy. Mesotherapy is commonly used after liposuction to correct the irregularities left after liposuction. Liposuction is a surgical and invasive procedure that involves downtime, but has the advantage that it can be performed in one sitting. Mesotherapy is performed every two weeks for an average of 4-6 sessions but involves no downtime and less risk. Although, some people may see a good result after just 1-2 sessions. Mesotherapy is nonsurgical
