Treatment Overview
Skin Firming Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment that uses micro-injections of vitamins, amino acids, peptides, hyaluronic acid, and collagen stimulators to rejuvenate and tighten sagging skin. Unlike dermal fillers, mesotherapy works by nourishing the dermis, stimulating fibroblasts, and restoring skin elasticity gradually from within.
In Korean dermatology clinics, Skin Firming Mesotherapy is widely performed on abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, and knees, especially in patients who experience skin laxity after weight loss, pregnancy, or aging. It is frequently combined with HIFU, RF, Thermage, or collagen boosters for stronger lifting and contouring effects.
