Abstract

The aim of this case study is to identify and justify the choice of an aesthetic treatment for early photoageing and fine lines on the face, and use evidence to support this clinical decision. The pre- and post-treatment regimens will be appraised by the author, who willl also discuss the professional responsibilities involved in the treatment process, including legislation, ethical issues, patient safety and treatment management. Relevant research and clinical papers will be discussed to support the claims made in this article. In the case of the 28-year-old female the author treated, she chose to administer mesotherapy; this is a nonsurgical procedure which is considered to be an associate treatment within the practice of cosmetic medicine. Mesotherapy has a two-fold action: nourishing the upper skin layers to provide maximal physiological function, and promoting the stimulation of fibroblasts to increase collagen secretion.
