How many sessions of microneedling mesotherapy should be performed?
The number of sessions of needle mesotherapy is always determined individually during the initial consultation with a specialist. Usually, a series of 3 to 6 treatments is recommended, but each case is different. For comprehensive improvement of the skin condition on the face, neck, décolletage, or body, typically 4 to 6 sessions are needed. Treating scars may require a slightly greater number of visits, while in the case of hair loss issues, 3-4 sessions are often sufficient. The final number of treatments depends on the specifics of your problem, the current condition of your skin, and the desired effects.
The number of microneedling mesotherapy treatments, as well as their schedule, is always an individual matter. Sessions usually take place every 2-4 weeks. At the beginning of the treatment, to intensely stimulate the skin, meetings can be more frequent - even every 2 weeks.
For scalp mesotherapy, the recommended interval between treatments is 21-30 days. This time is necessary for the skin to regenerate after microneedling and fully absorb the active ingredients provided.
The final treatment plan and its frequency must always be adjusted to the type of preparation used and the injection technique.
Needle mesotherapy is a treatment whose effects unfold over time, with each session enhancing its results. It is not a one-time procedure — each visit intensifies regenerative processes in the skin. While a single treatment may initiate certain changes, only a comprehensive cycle of visits ensures deep tissue restructuring. Systematic stimulation of fibroblasts leads to increased collagen production and the formation of elastin, guaranteeing long-lasting results. Through a full series of treatments, you can expect a significant improvement in the condition of your skin — it will be revitalized and rejuvenated.
The number of microneedling mesotherapy treatments is not fixed but depends on many individual factors. The key roles are played by:
- overall skin condition, including its density, degree of sagging, and visible signs of aging such as wrinkles or furrows,
- treatment goal - intensive moisturizing, scar reduction, improving hair condition in case of baldness,
- area to be subjected to mesotherapy,
- type of preparation used, e.g. hyaluronic acid, specially selected vitamin cocktails, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), or tissue stimulants,
- individual regenerative abilities of the patient's skin,
- lifestyle.
Mesotherapy with needles brings quick and visible results. Already after the first session, the skin becomes significantly better moisturized, more firm, and its color evens out noticeably. Deeper, long-lasting effects develop gradually, thanks to the intensive collagen rebuilding in the skin. After a series of 2-3 treatments, you will notice a significant difference in the skin's appearance: wrinkles will become less visible, and the skin will regain firmness and elasticity. The full effects, including the desired "baby hair" effect in the case of scalp mesotherapy, are revealed as the therapy progresses.
Immediately after the treatment, small lumps and a transient, mild swelling may appear, which quickly subside in the natural process of skin healing.
After a full series of needle mesotherapy treatments, the skin undergoes a significant transformation. This therapy provides a wide range of benefits, influencing the appearance and condition of the skin and hair. Its effects include:
- deep skin moisturization,
- noticeable skin firming,
- increased skin elasticity and density,
- smoothing of fine lines,
- facial contour correction,
- effective support in anti-aging prevention,
- cellulite reduction,
- intense hair growth stimulation, often leading to the appearance of new hair, known as baby hair.
The effects of microneedling mesotherapy are usually long-lasting. After completing a full series of treatments, the results can last from several months to a year. However, it is important to remember that the duration of these results is highly individual and depends on the body's predispositions, the patient's lifestyle, and the type of product used. To enjoy the results for as long as possible, it is recommended to undergo maintenance treatments, which are typically scheduled every 3-6 months or in the form of 1-2 sessions per year. Taking these periodic visits into account when planning long-term expenses is advisable.
