Diet, exercise, and a structured weight-loss program can address overall body fat, but some areas — under the chin, the abdomen, the inner thighs — can be more resistant to change than others. Mesotherapy is one option some patients explore for these localized areas. The treatment involves a series of micro-injections delivered into the layer of tissue just beneath the skin, using a solution designed to target fat cells in that area and support the body's own processes for clearing them. It's a body contouring treatment rather than a weight-loss treatment, and it tends to be considered by patients who are already close to their goal weight and want to refine a specific area.
A typical session lasts 30 to 60 minutes with no downtime required, and a topical numbing agent may be used to minimize discomfort. Most treatment plans involve a series of sessions spaced one to two weeks apart, with the total number depending on the size of the treatment area and the patient's individual goals. Beyond fat reduction, mesotherapy solutions containing vitamins and micronutrients may also support skin quality in the treated area over time.
Dr. Sattele's Rapid Weight Loss and Aesthetics Centers offers mesotherapy as one part of a broader weight-loss and body-contouring program across its Florence, North Myrtle Beach, and Murrells Inlet locations.
