In the last decade, cosmetology has advanced a lot. Today, no one can be surprised by such procedures as contouring, implantation of mesothreads, liposuction, mesotherapy. Each of these procedures has its own characteristics, but almost all of them involve the use of an injection method to deliver nutrients deep into the skin. Yes, this method is more traumatic, but it is much more effective than the usual application of creams to the surface of the skin. The mesoscooter is a tool for use at home, which is similar in action to mesotherapy. This device can be used for various purposes both on the skin of the face and body. The article describes how to use the body mesoscooter for maximum results.
What is a mesoscooter?
Mesoscooter is a long handle (about 15-20 cm), on which there are holders, and between them - a rotating wheel, on which very sharp needles are symmetrically located. Their length is different, depending on the purpose of the tool:
- Mesoscooter for the body is equipped with relatively long needles - from 1 mm to 3 mm. This size is necessary in order to most effectively affect the insensitive skin of the body in those places where there are stretch marks, cellulite and significant fat deposits. The needles are made of titanium - this provides maximum strength and guarantee that during the procedure the needle does not break or get stuck in the skin.
- Mesoscooter for the face has a length of needles from 0.5 to 1 mm. The needles themselves are usually made of medical steel. On sale there are also mesoscooters for the face with titanium needles. Since the skin of the face is much softer and thinner than the skin of the body, sharp and rough movements are not allowed during use. If there was no experience with a mesoscooter at home before, then it is better to choose a device with a minimum needle length of 0.5 mm.
What is used for
Mesoscooter with regular and proper use allows you to achieve at home a cosmetic effect similar to salon mesotherapy. With this procedure, the cosmetologist injects special formulations with a thin needle into the upper and middle layer of the dermis. They are called mesococktails, they include many useful components (collagen, amino acids, vitamins and plant extracts). When using a mesoscooter, it is not possible to inject the therapeutic composition directly into the depths of the skin, so pre-treated skin should be lubricated with a meso-cocktail. As the girls write in the reviews, already"perforated". Lying down on the skin treated with a mesoscooter, the meso-cocktail penetrates into the deep layers of the dermis, which cannot be achieved with the usual method of application.
In large cities, you can even get mesotherapy training with a mesoscooter. At the same time, special emphasis is placed on the body: after all, in some places the skin is thinner (a device with short needles may be required), in some it is thicker. Therefore, the pressing force and processing speed will vary. In addition, depending on the problem, the composition of meso-cocktails will differ.
What are meso-cocktails for
Often, girls who start using a mesoscooter at home are worried about the lack of mesococtails. It would seem that the result depends on the composition of the cocktail. This opinion is only partly true.
It is not necessary to buy meso-cocktails for a mesoscooter, you can cook them yourself. Collagen, amino acids in liquid form, as well as vitamins in the form of a solution (in ampoules) can be purchased at any pharmacy. Then independently, based on the purpose of use, prepare a portion of the cocktail at a time and apply it to the skin surface treated with the mesoscooter immediately after the procedure.
Components for making mesococktails
In the pharmacy you can buy almost all the ingredients that will allow you to create an effective cocktail:
- Hyaluronic acid fills the dermis with moisture, helps eliminate dryness, prevents wilting and appearancewrinkles.
- Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) whitens the skin, and also promotes the breakdown of adipose tissue. This is a great ingredient for a meso cocktail if your goal is to lose weight and get rid of cellulite.
- Collagen increases elasticity, tightens, reduces the depth of wrinkles.
- Elastin has the same properties as collagen, but its molecules are smaller.
- Aloe vera extract moisturizes, makes the skin velvety and smooth, relieves inflammation and irritation.
- Calendula extract helps to smooth the skin, can be added to smoothies for cellulite and stretch marks.
- Chamomile extract soothes, relieves irritation, eliminates the effects of dermatological diseases and allergies.
- Artichoke extract makes the skin smooth and nourished, reduces puffiness and cellulite.
Negative consequences of using a mesoscooter
It should be noted that the use of a mesoscooter for the body is not always safe. Negative consequences include:
- the appearance of a vascular network and rosacea on the treated surfaces of the skin of the body and face;
- exacerbation of varicose veins;
- appearance of an allergic reaction to the use of mesococktails - swelling, itching, irritation and peeling of the skin;
- enlargement of pores (this side effect affects mainly the face, but also applies to use on the body).
Mesoscooter for the body from cellulite
Cellulite, or "orange peel" effect, is a problem for many women. It is characterized by the presence of flabby, bumpy, ugly andwrinkled skin on the buttocks and thighs. Cellulite does not threaten the state of he alth, it is only a cosmetic defect. Mesotherapy will help fix it.
Mesoscooter at home can significantly soften the manifestations of cellulite or even get rid of it completely. So, before starting the procedure, it is necessary to wash the needles of the apparatus with alcohol. Then drive the mesoscooter over the previously washed dry skin of the problem area of the body. Don't push too hard for the first couple of minutes. Then, when the skin is warm, you can press hard, which can be quite painful.
How long does the procedure take
The procedure lasts ten minutes per thigh. At the fifth or seventh minute of the procedure, the skin will turn very red. This is normal: for the body, the mesoscooter is a kind of small test.
Immediately after the procedure, apply a meso-cocktail for cellulite. If there is none, you can apply a regular cream designed to combat orange peel. Of course, after using the mesoscooter, in no case should you apply creams and compositions with a warming and irritating effect! This may cause a burn.
Using a mesoscooter for weight loss
It's no secret that one of the easiest (but not cheap) ways to get rid of fat folds in the abdomen, thighs or armpits is mesotherapy. At home, you can also achieve an excellent result with a mesoscooter: fat folds will decrease, the skin will tighten.
Of course, in parallel with the use of a mesoscooterdiet should be adjusted. Otherwise, you can not expect an impressive result.
Using a mesoscooter for stretch marks
Stretch marks, or, as they are called in the common people, stretch marks, are whitish or reddish stripes on the skin that create an ugly relief. From the outside, they look like scars. Owners of stretch marks are very embarrassed by this dermatological effect. Alas, if stretch marks have been formed for a long time, it is almost impossible to get rid of them. The situation will not help to radically correct even a mesoscooter for the body. From stretch marks, only laser exposure can be guaranteed to help.
Using a mesoscooter can slightly smooth out only recently (no more than a year ago) stretch marks. Judging by the reviews, after the procedure with the mesoscooter, the girls lubricate the skin with Contractubex gel - it helps to get rid of chronic scars and stretch marks.
How not to harm yourself: basic rules
How to use the mesoscooter so as not to provoke negative consequences? Here is a list of simple rules:
- before using this or that meso-cocktail, you should check the skin for an allergic reaction, this will help to avoid many problems and unpleasant consequences (itching, pain, irritation);
- before each procedure, disinfect the needles of the device with an alcohol composition;
- for the first few minutes of the procedure, do not press the mesoscooter too hard, the pressure should be increased in parallel with the skin getting used toimpact;
- do not leave the instrument without a case, it may damage the needles, which, in turn, can cause damage to the skin during the procedure.
Mesoscooter for the face: reviews of cosmetologists
Using a facial roller requires more care. On the face, capillaries and vessels are located close to the surface of the skin and the dermis is much thinner than on the body. So the slightest rudeness, non-compliance with safety rules can lead to injury. Instead of good, there will be harm.
Proper use of the face mesoscooter (reviews of cosmetologists confirm this) only benefits. This is especially true for aging skin: a decrease in the severity of wrinkles, nasolabial and nasolabial folds. If you use a mesococktail containing acids, you can achieve narrowing of the pores and renewal of the upper layer of the dermis.
Using a mesoscooter for the face at home can significantly save on trips to the beauty parlor. The main thing is to start the procedures carefully: this will help to reveal the ability of your own skin to regenerate and prevent the development of allergic reactions.
Reviews of cosmetologists about the use of the mesoscooter for weight loss
But about the use of a roller for weight loss, the reviews are not very good. Any person with a medical background will confirm that for successful and rapid weight loss, the key to success is a change in diet,rather than using a mesoscooter for the body. Reviews of those losing weight report that regular procedures using the tool will help keep the skin in good shape and prevent the development of stretch marks.
If you continue to exceed the daily caloric intake, then no cosmetic procedure will help get rid of subcutaneous and visceral fat. Only with a parallel change in the diet, procedures using a mesoscooter for the body will give an excellent result.
