In addition to inevitable age-related changes, the condition of our skin noticeably worsens due to living in an unfavorable environmental environment, unbalanced diet, lack of sleep and frequent stress. The periorbital area suffers the most, which in many women ages much faster than the rest of the face. There are several effective ways to solve this problem: from simple and quick peelings to surgical eyelid lifting. But the most interesting and promising option is eye mesotherapy.
Is this eye mesotherapy as effective as they write and talk about it? At what age should I start the course and which drugs should I prefer? What happens during the session, are there any risks of complications or side effects? We will tell you all the most necessary details.
Mesotherapy of the eye area
Mesotherapy of the eye area is a method of combating facial skin imperfections. By injecting special biologically active substances into various layers of the dermis. The procedure is used to deeply nourish the skin, which simple cosmetics cannot cope with. Having an effect only on its superficial layers. In small doses, the drug is injected locally into the dermis. Where it is not absorbed and distributed throughout the body. This is one of the benefits of facial mesotherapy. Nutrients interact with the cellular structures of the middle layer of the skin and have a positive cumulative effect. A course of facial care consists of 7-10 procedures.
Injections are performed intradermally using ultra-thin mesotherapy needles to a depth of 1.5–3.9 mm. The composition of the cocktail, dosage and area of administration are determined individually. Before administering the drug, the skin is anesthetized and disinfected. After the injections, it is re-treated with a disinfectant composition, then a sedative is applied.
Drugs used in the procedure
Our specialists will select the composition of the meso-preparation for you in accordance with the needs of your skin or hair and develop a treatment program to rid you of imperfections in your appearance in a short time. We work only with modern, completely safe drugs from the world's leading manufacturers. All meso-cocktails used in Cleo Line have undergone clinical trials and confirmed their effectiveness.

Mesotherapy of the eye area
Why do even the first sessions of mesotherapy in the eye area have an amazing effect?
In the first part of the article, I would like to pay special attention to mesotherapy of the skin around the eyes and think about why it is in this area that age shows itself so quickly.
The fact is that this area of the face often suffers more than others from active facial expressions: all our emotions - joy, sadness, surprise, laughter - are invariably reflected in our eyes, both literally and figuratively. But the skin in the eye area is very thin and sensitive. Therefore, already in youth, the first “crow’s feet” form around. In addition to subtle smile lines, we can pay attention to the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. This is also the effect of thin skin and the absence of a fat layer under it. Over the years, its freshness fades; habits, lifestyle, lack of sleep, lack of vitamins and much, much more greatly influence it. Unfortunately, harmful factors greatly influence our appearance, and the individual characteristics of the body additionally provoke bruises and swelling under the eyes. All this is of little joy, it worries and provokes us to take some steps to solve the problem. The aging process is caused by loss of elasticity and firmness of the skin, which makes itself felt by deterioration of blood circulation and lymph flow. The dermis, according to all the laws of gravity, begins to sag. Not much pleasant. Mesotherapy wonderfully helps to correct such age-related changes and “rejuvenate” the eyes. Masks and lotions don’t really help prevent dark circles under the eyes and wrinkles. Only the internal saturation of the skin with vitamins and minerals allows it to strengthen, tighten, and shine. Timely injection sessions are an excellent chance to avoid surgical lifts for as long as possible.
Features of the technique
Most people experience their first problems with the skin around the eyes around the age of 30. Fine wrinkles under the lower eyelids, bruises and bags. Which are noticeable not only after a sleepless night, dull, grayish color. Mesotherapy of the eye area is considered one of the most effective methods. Normalize the condition of this area of the face and prolong its youth.
With its help you can:
- prevent the early appearance of wrinkles and slightly smooth out existing ones;
- increase tone and improve skin quality by stimulating the production of your own collagen. Saturating it with vitamins, minerals, microelements and other nutrients;
- cope with swelling and normalize blood flow, which leads to the disappearance of bags and dark circles;
- ensure a normal level of moisture. It is worth remembering that if the main problem is dry skin, then biorevitalization would be the best choice. Find out more about the similarities and differences between it and mesotherapy).

Methodology

Mesotherapy and types of skin aging: important
From the outside it may seem that mesotherapy is a very simple technique - you just need to take a more expensive drug with a large number of active ingredients and inject it over the entire area of the face and neck. And so several times, and continue to wait for the onset of rejuvenation. And it seemed like everything was done, but for some reason rejuvenation never came.
Of course, perhaps you initially had too high expectations from the course of mesotherapy, and you refused biorevitalization due to price considerations. However, it is also possible that the treatment was carried out without taking into account individual characteristics, for example, the type of skin aging. Russian women are characterized by 2 main types of aging - these are primarily deformational (edematous) and finely wrinkled types of aging. But, of course, no one has canceled the mixed and tired types of aging either.
