The MesoBotox

Ageing effect on the face

Face ageing leads to an atrophy of the skin with a loss of elasticity, a loss concerning the bone and a tendency to a contraction of the eyes and the mouth. The consequences are a falling of the queue of the eyebrows, a closing of the outline of the mouth, a stressing of the solar plissé above to top lip, a digging of the wrinkles at the corners of the mouth and an apparition of vertical wrinkles on the cheeks.

The expression muscles and the problems they set

The expression muscles (called muscles platysma of the face) distribute themselves around the eyes, the nose and the mouth. They are changeable in their extend, their form and their force of contraction. They can give a very big variety of expression wrinkles from an individual to another one.
The injection of high concentrations in flat and sly muscles like those muscles is very difficult to operate in a sure way with the classical intramuscular technique. It can lead to a too important blocking and to inconvenient secondary effects (lymphatic blocking, frozen expression, even total loss of natural expression).
Furthermore those muscles are not only very sly but they are also complicated in their anatomic relations: some of them are one millimetre thick maximum, others can extend very far backwards, go towards the line of hair and on the sides.
When Botox is injected on a spot, it acts on a centimeter around this spot. But if the muscle extends very far backwards the points of standard injections, it will be necessary to take over from the treated zone with another point located one centimeter away from the previous one.
The intramuscular injection, strict at this level, is thus very risky and difficult to estimate.

Why do we use the mesotherapic way, called “MesoBotox”?

The MesoBotox is a technique of use of the botulinum toxin, different and complementary to the standard intramuscular injection of this toxin.
The mesotherapic way allows to inject the product in intra dermic papules and is used to favour the spreading of the toxin towards the whole of a flat muscle and to allow a looseness of the under dermic myofibrils.
We can consider it as an adaptation of the action of the toxin on specific areas of the face, of the neck and of the neckline.
The mesotherapic injection is done with a very sly needle practically painless and the concentration of toxin used is weaker.

Preliminary

We make you realize mimics so that to better visualize and to mark the areas to inject (forced closing of eyelids, maximum opening of the eyes with rising of the eyebrows, frowns).
We ask you to pout so that to better visualize the folds around the lips.
And we make you do a movement of a pronounced smile upwards to have an overall view of the muscle of your face.

Locating areas to treat

With a lip pencil we mark the expression wrinkles created by the different movements on the flat muscles areas (as the orbicularis of the eyelids next to the temples, and the frontal muscle) and on the much puckered areas (as the top lip).

Results

The weakening of the muscular contractibility gives a rested and relaxed aspect to the face which remains natural.
The clearer opening of the mouth and the eyes gives a much younger aspect.

Adding treatments

15 days later, the Mesolift allows to give the skin a certain tension, a long-lived hydration and a improvement of the complexion back.
And immediately after the Mesolift, the glycolic peelings or TCA 15% contribute to the improvement of the quality of the epidermis.

Conclusion

Provided that the rules of injection of the toxin are respected, the MesoBotox is a good complement of the aesthetic treatment and gives a result “à la carte”.
