Meso Plus Facial
This treatment was developed to solve the problem that conventional methods are unable to deliver, to implement bigger particles of product, deep enough into the dermal layer.
The Meso Plus facial is more heavy duty, Meso + is suitable for clients that have more difficult skin issues such as acne scars or deeper set lines and wrinkles. It is performed with metal needles that penetrate deeper into the skin and will leave your face red for around 24 hours. This is a more intense facial where treatments should be given 4 weeks apart minimum.
How does the Meso ME Treatment Work?
Step 1. The AHA Peel (Mild) or the Cherry Peel (Strong)
The Cherry Peel can only be used once every 3 months and is very strong, after this the AHA Peel can be used every other session. The peel is applied to the skin and left for 3-10mins (depending on skin Type). The dryer and thicker the skin the longer it will take to “pink up”.
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA’s) work mainly as an exfolient. They cause the surface cells of the epidermis (Stratum Corneum) to become “unglued”, allowing the dead skin cells to slough off allowing regrowth of new skin. AHA’s may even stimulate the production of collagen and Elastin. AHA’s can improve wrinkling, mottled pigmentation of photo damaged skin and superficial roughness. In skin care products AHA’s work best in a concentration of 5%-8% and a PH of 3-4.
The Brightening Cherry Peel is a powerful rejuvenating treatment, promotes collagen formation while inhabiting uneven skin tone, addressing acne scars, pigmentation and age spots typically found on the face, chest and decollete. This natural source peel encourages cellular respiration while removing revitalised skin cells. Skin is stimulated encouraging the synthesis of collagen which fills fine lines, acne scars and wrinkles for more uniform, softer, smoother appearance. This natural tyrosinase inhibitor brightens and illuminates areas of uneven skin tone without the use of hydroquinone.
Step 2. The Meso Glow or Meso Plus Cell Boost Treatment
After the AHA Peel/Cherry Peel is thoroughly removed, the Serum is applied to the skin. Using the Meso Glow system, a needle cartridge with 18 points on a convex plate is used to work the serum into the skin at a depth of 0.2-0.3mm (needle depth is 0.5mm). This ensures the product is placed into the Dermal-Epidermal junction where it can be absorbed to create maximum beneficial effect.
Meso Plus needles are metal – the small tilting needle plate contains 6 tiny metal needles. It adapts perfectly to the skins surface and thus facilitates access to difficult areas. The needles penetrate deeper into the skin through the epidermis and deposits the serums deeper down into the dermal-epidermal junction, thus leading to more permanent results. Redness can usually last for 24 hours with slightly more aftercare involved.
Step 3. Aftercare
At the end of your treatment you will see slight redness and a small amount of swelling around areas that have been specifically targeted (wrinkles, scars). This is normal and should reduce within a couple of hours. The aftercare cream is gently applied to the skin, a good moisture mask or even coconut oil should be applied before bed that evening.
Ideally you’re not to reapply make up until the following morning – at which point it will glide on beautifully.
A course of 6 treatments is recommended for full effects with the Meso Glow, the first 4 a week apart and the last 2 sessions a month apart. Alternatively, once monthly sessions are also a welcomed treat for your skin!
Meso Plus courses are spaced out more with a minimum of 4 weeks between treatments.
