title="Sesja plenarna IVThe use of mesotherapy in dermatological treatment",
abstract="Mesotherapy is a method of treatment in which small doses of drugs or other biologically active substances are injected into lesions intra- and subcutaneously. Mesotherapy was first used in 1952 by the French doctor M. Pistor. Currently this method is widely popular, particularly in aesthetic dermatology. It is a non-invasive procedure, which without surgical intervention produces satisfactory therapeutic results. Mesotherapy may play a role in the treatment of hair disorders, symptoms of skin ageing, scars, keloids, stretches and cellulitis. Intracutaneous injections of biologically active substances increase cell metabolism and stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, influencing microcirculation in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Injections of hyaluronic acid cause immediate skin rejuvenation and long-term stimulation of collagen and elastin. Mesotherapy accelerates the process of wound healing, and is used in the treatment of bedsores, burns and crural ulcerations as well as hyperpigmentations. This method can also be an adjuvant therapy.  A significant advantage of this method is the fact that medication is not introduced via the digestive tract, and the possibility of adverse effects is diminished. The role of mesotherapy as an effective treatment in future requires further research to establish active substances concentration and to evaluate their usefulness and safety.",
