Main Information

No-needle mesotherapy, such as offered with the <a href="https://www.consultingroom.com/Treatments/Eporex" target="_self">Eporex</a> and <a href="https://www.consultingroom.com/Treatments/Acthyderm" target="_self">Acthyderm</a> devices, seeks to achieve the same aim as injection mesotherapy and thus is targeted at the same treatment indications, such as skin rehydration and toning as well as cellulite and fat reduction treatments.   It uses a pulsed low frequency electric current to deliver active ingredients into the skin.   The medical jury is still very much out on whether or not needle mesotherapy produces any long term, lasting results for the variety of areas that it claims to treat. Many practitioners believe that the effects are from the needling itself and not the introduction of any substances. If this is the case then for no-needle alternatives such as Eporex it is going to be even harder to prove that the active ingredients get to where they are required and actually do something once they are there. One could argue that in the case of treatments targeted at fat reduction, the advice to eat fewer carbohydrates and to exercise could in themselves produce the inch and weight loss claimed by Eporex. Unfortunately very little clinical data exists for such no-needle mesotherapy devices and certainly no independent, peer reviewed studies are currently available.   One retrospective review of 38 patients, (30 female and 8 male), from an Eporex centre in Edinburgh who completed a course of seven treatments for targeted fat reduction on the abdomen and were also given eating plans to reduce carbohydrates and advised to exercise, showed an average female weight loss of 6.5lbs, and an average centimetre loss of 4.7cm on the upper abdomen, 6.12cm on the lower and 7.23cm on the midriff. Results for male patients were comparable.   Results do vary between individuals and the devices used.   As with many new technologies, manufacturer claims tend to be somewhat embellished, and we must offer a note of caution on their efficacy, as until long-term clinical evidence is gathered, little is known of any proven scientific merit and potential future complications.
