People have been searching for safe and easy body sculpting methods for centuries. Unfortunately, most of the techniques discovered aren’t completely effective. Exercise and dieting may work, but there will still be flab, cellulite, and other problems. The results will still be less than perfect. Mesotherapy is a safe, more affordable alternative to surgical procedures like liposuction.

History of Mesotherapy

The field of mesotherapy was founded by a French doctor named Michel Pistor. After years of clinical research, Dr. Pistor began administering the treatments in 1952. In 1987, the French Academy of Medicine added mesotherapy as a specialized medical practice. Mesotherapy has seen success throughout Europe for more than half a century and has recently become available in the United States. There are about 18,000 doctors around the world that are qualified to perform mesotherapy.

How it Works

Mesotherapy is a medical treatment that is performed by a doctor using several subdermal injections. Each injection, about the size of an eyelash, contains a mixture of FDA approved medicines, vitamins, and natural extracts. The formula is inserted into the mesoderm of the problem area, which is the layer of fat and tissue found just below the skin’s surface. It then begins to dissolve and shrink the fat cells. For best results, mesotherapy is typically performed bi- weekly for the needed number of sessions.

Benefits of Mesotherapy

When fat cells shrink, unsightly bulges diminish, and the skin tightens. and excess weight falls away.  Because mesotherapy in Reno doesn’t involve surgery, there is little recovery time and patients can continue with their regular routine.

Typical Treatments

Each mesotherapy session in Reno takes less than half an hour and can easily be scheduled during a patient’s lunch break. The number of treatments required will depend on the individual as well as the targeted area. Facial rejuvenation, for example, generally consists of 4 treatments at 2 to 3 week intervals. Patients who receive treatment for weight loss may see results in as little as 2 sessions or may schedule 5 or 6 visits. Treatments are usually administered every other week until the series is complete.

The Best Candidates for Mesotherapy

While mesotherapy in Reno can be a highly effective and simple body sculpting solution, it is not the best option for everyone. The ideal mesotherapy patient is a healthy adult with a body mass index of no more than 30. An individual must be at least 18 years old to receive treatment and should be no older than 75. Mesotherapy is not recommended for pregnant women, diabetics, cancer patients, or people taking certain medications.

Mesotherapy is much more effective than weight loss creams and gels. It is also safer and more affordable than other weight loss procedures performed by doctors. That’s why mesotherapy treatments are becoming increasingly popular throughout the world. In less than an hour each month, individuals can achieve their body sculpting goals without surgery thanks to mesotherapy.

Best results are seen on people with fairly normal size who have one to a few mildly problem fatty areas such as saddle bags, waist buttocks, or bra bulge.  Mesotherapy is not a weight loss program.

Finding information on how to stop smoking is easy, but what is not as easy is sorting through it all. Which method is the best; or better yet, which one will work the best for you? Each person is different, and not everyone will respond the same way to the same approaches. This information may help you decide to quit smoking, and, with some effort, end up smoke free.

What are the Benefits of not Smoking?

In the U.S., there are over 170,000 deaths per year due to cancer, including lung cancer. Certain cancers may not be preventable, but lung cancer caused by smoking is, so keep that in mind while trying to quit. Beyond cancer, quitting smoking lowers blood pressure, and lowers the risk for both heart attack and stroke. It also helps you breathe better, not to mention the money you will save when you no longer need to buy cigarettes.

When it seems Impossible to Quit

Smokers struggling to quit seem to have tried it all, the patch, gum, hypnosis, self-help books and groups, cold turkey, yoga, and even shock treatment! Even after all this, they are still smokers. Some physicians are now using what is called a cold (low-level) painless laser, fired at specific points on the hands and face like acupuncture, to rid the body of nicotine cravings and other symptoms of withdrawal by raising the body’s own natural pain and stress reliever.

The Newest Medical Breakthrough in the Science of Battling a Nicotine Habit

As a family physician in Nevada, I have developed a 4-step program that uses the cold laser to help you overcome the need to smoke. What sets this system apart? Nicotine gum and patches just give the body nicotine in another form, while prescription drugs are expensive and may have some serious side effects. His program has no side effects, provides ongoing support without a long-term commitment, and causes the release of natural stress and pain reducers.

What does this new Program Involve?

Step One: A consultation with myself or a member of the medical staff.

Step Two: The cold laser treatment, in which a low-level laser beam will stimulate the acupuncture points related to smoking. This releases chemicals in your brain that relax you, which reduces the withdrawal symptoms.

Step Three: The dietary and lifestyle action plan, to help with cravings, rid the body of toxins, give exercise ideas and stress reduction tips, not to mention a free relaxation CD.

Step Four: The follow up visit, to track your progress, and determine if you might benefit from further treatment, or if the dietary lifestyle plan is enough to keep you on course to your goal of becoming a non-smoker, although the clinic staff is always available for additional support as needed

No matter what anyone may say there is no ‘miracle cure’ that will make cravings disappear overnight. With the right support, though, you can overcome the need for nicotine. Do the homework; find out everything you can about any new program or product before investing time and money into it. The most important step in the journey to stop smoking is the first one.
