Does mesotherapy hurt?

[chrissy]

I've tried absolutely everything for my cellulite! :( Sigh not much luck. Endemology was a waste of time not to mention$$$. How much does mesotherapy hurt?? I hate needles but... well, if it works...

Heya Chrissy,

I actually found the pain to be quite trivial. Dr Lin has a specially designed mesotherapy "gun" and really, it barely hurt.

How were your injections done? Were they performed by hand? I had one friend who had about 20-30 injections all done by hand into her saddlebags and she said it hurt a lot. It was very strange since Lisa (friend) has a very high pain tolerance.

Hi Starfish,

You are one of our actually one of our patients in the "lucky" 50%. About half our patients do experience some stinging a few hours after the local anaesthetic wears off. mild discomfort about 12-24 hours after the procedure. 24 hours later some patients complain of a soreness like that of a heavy workout. IN almost all people any discomfort completely passes after 2-3 days.
