Micro-doses placed superficially to refine pores, calm oil and smooth skin texture. Prescriber approved, nurse-led.
Mesotox uses the same prescription only muscle-relaxing medication as standard anti-wrinkle treatment, but diluted and placed superficially into the skin rather than into the muscle. At this depth and dose it does not restrict your expression. Instead it acts on the oil glands and pores, refining texture and reducing shine.
It suits skin that is oily, shiny by the afternoon, or has visibly enlarged pores, and it is often chosen by clients who want a smoother finish without any change to how their face moves. Because it is a prescription-only medicine, treatment follows a consultation with a qualified prescriber, exactly as standard anti-wrinkle treatment does.
Prescription-only medicine, used only after consultation with a qualified prescriber.
Treatment delivered by a qualified nurse with over 15 years of clinical experience.
Includes consultation, assessment and a series of very superficial injections.
Typically lasting 3 to 4 months, similar to standard anti-wrinkle treatment.
After your consultation and medical history, the diluted product is placed across the treatment area in a grid of very shallow micro-injections. There are many more injection points than a standard anti-wrinkle treatment, but each is far more superficial and the sensation is lighter.
Expect mild redness and small raised bumps for an hour or two. Most clients return to normal straight away. Avoid makeup, exercise and lying flat for the rest of the day. The change in oil and texture builds over the following two weeks.
Same medicine, different technique. Standard treatment goes into the muscle to soften movement. Mesotox is diluted and placed superficially in the skin to act on oil glands and pores, without restricting expression.
No. That is the point of the technique. The dose and depth are chosen specifically so your expression is unaffected.
Around 3 to 4 months, similar to standard anti-wrinkle treatment. Most clients who like the effect maintain it two or three times a year.
Often yes, and many clients do. We would plan the areas and total dose together at consultation rather than treating them as separate appointments.
It can help with oiliness and pore appearance, which supports acne-prone skin, but it is not an acne treatment. If acne is your main concern we would discuss peels or a longer-term plan instead.
It is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or with certain neuromuscular conditions. Your consultation covers your full medical history, and if it is not right for you we will say so.
