What is Whitening Mesotherapy?
Have you noticed dark spots, discoloration or uneven color distribution on your face? Whitening mesotherapy is an advanced and targeted treatment that can effectively address these problems, giving you brighter and more even skin.
Whitening mesotherapy is a specialized treatment that combines the mesotherapy method with powerful whitening ingredients. Through microinjections, active substances are administered directly into the skin that aim to reduce melanin overproduction and restore the natural radiance of the epidermis.
This minimally invasive method allows the therapeutic ingredients to reach directly into the deeper layers of the skin, where melanin production takes place and thus ensures the best possible absorption and effectiveness.

How Whitening Mesotherapy Works
Facial whitening treatment works through three basic mechanisms:
- Tyrosinase inhibition: The active ingredients inhibit the tyrosinase enzyme, which is responsible for melanin production and this way reduces the formation of new discoloration.
- Melanin transfer reduction: It limits the transfer of pigment to the upper layers of the skin, reducing the risk of dark spots and discoloration appearing.
- Cellular renewal acceleration: It helps the skin shed dark-colored cells and create new, healthier and brighter ones.
Key Ingredients in Whitening Mesotherapy
Key Ingredients in Whitening Mesotherapy
Glutathione
Glutathione is one of the most powerful natural antioxidants in the body. It acts as a powerful whitening agent, as it inhibits melanin production and protects the skin from oxidative stress.
Vitamin C
It helps reduce spots, stimulates collagen production for firmer skin and protects against damage caused by free radicals.
Kojic Acid
Kojic acid is a natural ingredient derived from fungi and is one of the most effective whitening agents. It directly inhibits tyrosinase activity, significantly reducing melanin production.
Tranexamic Acid
Tranexamic acid works through a unique mechanism, inhibiting plasminogen activation. This action interrupts the chain of reactions that leads to melanin overproduction, particularly in cases of melasma.
Azelaic Acid
Azelaic acid offers dual action as it inhibits tyrosinase and has exfoliating properties that help remove dark-colored cells from the skin surface.
Conditions Treated
Whitening mesotherapy effectively addresses:
- Melasma: The symmetrical, dark spots that usually appear on the face from hormonal changes or sun exposure
- Solar spots: The dark spots caused by chronic exposure to ultraviolet radiation
- Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: The dark spots that remain after acne, injuries or other inflammatory skin conditions
- Generalized discoloration: The uneven color distribution that creates dullness and lack of radiance
- Dark circles under the eyes: The pigment that accumulates in the eye area
Treatment Areas
Whitening mesotherapy can be applied to:
- Face: Cheeks, forehead, chin, area around the eyes
- Neck and Décolletage: For even tone in exposed areas
- Hands: Addressing solar spots and aging
- Other areas: Any area of the body that shows hyperpigmentation
Treatment Procedure
Preparation
Before treatment, the area is carefully cleansed and topical anesthetic cream is applied, ensuring your comfort during the procedure.
Application
The specialist doctor uses very thin needles to administer the whitening mixture to areas that need treatment. The injections are done at a superficial level, targeting the mesoderm where melanocytes are located.
Completion
After completing the injections, soothing gel and high-protection sunscreen are applied to protect the skin.
The total duration of treatment ranges from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the area that needs treatment.

Possible Side Effects
Whitening mesotherapy is generally a safe treatment with minimal side effects:
Immediate Side Effects:
- Mild redness that subsides in 2-4 hours
- Mild swelling at injection sites
- Small bruises that disappear in 10-15 days
Rare Side Effects:
- Allergic reactions to ingredients

Comparison with Other Methods
- Versus topical creams: Mesotherapy is superior because it allows active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin. This happens because it bypasses the protective barrier of the epidermis (the keratin layer), thus offering faster and more visible results.
- Versus chemical peels: It has shorter recovery time, while offering targeted treatment to specific areas since ingredients are injected under the skin.
- Versus laser treatments: It presents fewer risks for hyperpigmentation and is safer for darker skin phototypes.
