Needle-free mesotherapy is an innovative cosmetic method that allows the introduction of valuable active substances into the deeper layers of the skin without the use of needles. It is an alternative technique to traditional needle mesotherapy, characterized by its less invasiveness and lack of discomfort. The procedure is growing in popularity due to its noticeable results in the form of rejuvenated and tightened skin on the face and body.
Needleless mesotherapy – mechanism of action.
Needle-free mesotherapy treatment involves delivering nutrients to the skin, such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids or hyaluronic acid, using electromagnetic pulses. Unlike classic needle mesotherapy or micro-needle mesotherapy, the treatment is non-invasive. Thanks to the use of electroporation technology, microchannels are formed in the skin's cell membrane, which allow the penetration of active substances into the deeper layers of the skin. Radiofrequency electrical pulses help to increase the permeability of the pores in the cell vouchers. The process is completely painless and requires no convalescence. The pulses sent can be easily adjusted in terms of frequency and intensity. What's more, the treatment usually takes an hour, and you can return to your daily activities immediately afterwards. Needle-free mesotherapy can also use devices that emit ultrasound, which creates a slight positive pressure and facilitates the penetration of biostimulating ingredients into the skin. Combining the two techniques also allows the introduction of macromolecular compounds that would not normally penetrate the low-permeability epidermal barrier.
Applications and benefits of needle-free mesotherapy
Depending on the chosen product, a variety of results can be expected. The treatment is dedicated to people of all ages who want to improve the overall condition of their skin and slow down the aging process. The main indications for needleless mesotherapy are dry skin, a decrease in tension, flabbiness, loss of elasticity, hyperpigmentation and imperfections, grayness and lack of radiance, unevenness, wrinkles, dark circles and puffiness under the eyes. The treatment can additionally be combined with other aesthetic medicine methods to enhance their effects. Needleless mesotherapy is used not only on the face but also on other areas of the body, such as the skin of the hands, neck, décolleté, abdomen and thighs. The treatment is used to improve skin condition, moisturize, firm and reduce wrinkles. It is used to combat cellulite, stretch marks or hyperpigmentation. Thanks to its broad spectrum of action, needle-free mesotherapy can be tailored to the individual needs of the patient, making it a versatile tool in aesthetic medicine and the field of cosmetology.
Course of treatment
The treatment begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin and the application of a specially selected mixture of active substances. Then, using an apparatus that emits electromagnetic pulses, the cosmetologist proceeds to apply the preparation to the skin. The whole procedure usually lasts from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and the patient's needs. After the procedure, the skin may be slightly reddened, but the symptoms quickly subside. At the OT.CO Clinic, specialists individually select active ingredients to meet the specific needs of the skin and the patient's expectations.
Needleless mesotherapy – effects
The first effects of needleless mesotherapy can be noticed after just a few days after the treatment, but for full results, a series of several sessions is recommended, usually from 4 to 10, at intervals of 1-2 weeks. The skin becomes more hydrated, elastic and radiant, and wrinkles and imperfections are less visible. There is a noticeable smoothing of the skin's surface, improvement in overall tone and elasticity, as well as firming. In addition, the treatment oxygenates the skin, stimulates blood circulation and stimulates muscles. It directly contributes to the activation of cells and stimulates them to synthesize collagen, which provides the skin with firmness, tone and elasticity. Massage is great for relaxing and relaxing muscles, which is a great way to relax and unwind. It's great for reducing cellulite, shaping the figure and increasing firmness of, for example, breasts, thighs or arms. Regular use of needle-free mesotherapy also contributes to delaying skin aging.

How to choose the right product for needleless mesotherapy? First, choose a cosmetic that is designed for your skin type and its needs. For dry skin, moisturizers with hyaluronic acid will work well, while if you are fighting signs of aging, invest in revitalizing and anti-aging products, such as vitamin ampoules. A big advantage of needle-free home mesotherapy devices is their easy and intuitive operation and compact size.

Substances used in needle-free mesotherapy.
Needle-free mesotherapy involves the introduction of a variety of active substances into the skin to improve its condition and appearance. Hyaluronic acid is one of the most popular ingredients used in mesotherapy. Its main function is to intensively hydrate the skin, as it has the ability to bind large amounts of water. It also helps in tissue regeneration, improves skin elasticity and smooths fine wrinkles, leading to a rejuvenated appearance. Vitamins are the foundation of healthy and well-groomed skin, and needle-free mesotherapy most often uses vitamin complexes. Particularly popular are:
- vitamin C – acts as a powerful antioxidant neutralizing free radicals, which contributes to protecting skin cells from damage. In addition, vitamin C lightens discoloration and promotes collagen production, which improves skin firmness,
- Vitamin A – accelerates skin cell regeneration and promotes collagen production, which reduces the appearance of wrinkles and smooths skin texture,
- vitamin E – is known for its moisturizing and antioxidant properties. It helps protect the skin from harmful external factors and improves its protective barrier.
Amino acids are fundamental building blocks of proteins such as collagen and elastin, which are key to skin structure and elasticity. Various amino acids, including proline, glycine and lysine, are used in needle-free mesotherapy to promote skin cell regeneration and improve skin firmness and elasticity. Extracts from various plants are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and other nutrients that have beneficial effects on the skin. For example, green tea extract has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which helps protect the skin from oxidative stress.
