“…In the case that we presented, mesotherapy allowed to control pain, avoiding adverse effects of oral therapy, with a weekly treatment. We suggested to insert the mesotherapy in the scheme of treatment of patients who need to reduce the dosages of systemic drugs, or who cannot take them because of a risk benefit ratio unfavorable, and to get a drug-sparing effect [7,9]. When performing mesotherapy, attention must be paid on certain aspects.…”

“…Beyond the pharmacological effect of drugs, it was also suggested that the reflex effect produced by the needles can induce clinical benefits [8]. In fact, many studies reported pain relief in patients with several musculoskeletal or posttraumatic conditions [9]. Mesotherapy is now well defined as a minimally invasive technique, useful to reduce dose of active compounds, a rapid onset and a prolonged duration of action [7].…”

Compounds injected by the intradermal route slowly diffuse into the underlying tissues and produce a drug-sparing effect compared to the parenteral route. This technique, called mesotherapy, can be useful when systemic drugs are not tolerated and to synergize with other therapies. We report advantages obtained in a patient with low back pain to underline that drugs introduced by intradermal route should be considered in the management of localized pain. A 52-year-old patient with low back pain was treated with analgesic drugs, but adverse events raised. After injection of intradermal drugs, pain was controlled and no adverse events were detected. Mesotherapy could represent a pharmacological strategy to manage localized pain.

“…3 Binaglia, em 1981, revelou que microinjeções de cetoprofeno de sódio intradérmicas tinham uma ação mais duradoura do que a respetiva injeção intramuscular, demonstrando igualmente que, quando injetado a uma profundidade superior a 10mm, permanecia menos tempo nos tecidos, chegando mesmo a atingir a circulação sistémica.…”

RESUMO / ABSTRACTA dor é um sintoma desagradável que, mais cedo ou mais tarde, atinge qualquer Ser Humano. Existem várias alternativas no combate à dor, quer farmacológicas, quer não farmacológicas. A mesoterapia consiste na administração de pequenas doses de misturas de fármacos na pele, o mais perto possível da lesão, permitindo a diminuição dos efeitos secundários associados aos anti-inflamatórios não esteroides (AINEs) usados na sintomatologia dolorosa. Existem várias teorias que explicam o mecanismo de ação desta técnica cada vez mais usada na patologia musculoesquelética. Os estudos apresentados demonstram o seu benefício e eficácia na patologia orto-traumática, reumatológica e desportiva através do uso de fármacos analgésicos e miorrelaxantes. A mesoterapia é uma arma terapêutica adicional e alternativa a outros tratamentos habituais usados no controlo da dor. Pain is an unpleasant symptom that sooner or later hits any Human Being. There are several alternatives to relieve the pain, pharmacological and non-pharmacological. Mesotherapy is the administration of small doses of drug mixtures in the skin as close as possible to the injury, allowing a decrease on the side effects associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) prescribed for the painful symptomatology. There are several theories that explain the mechanism of action of this technique, increasingly used in the musculoskeletal pathology. The published studies demonstrate its benefit and efficacy in the orthotraumatic, rheumatologic and sports pathologies with the use of analgesic drugs and myorelaxants. Mesotherapy is an additional therapeutic measure and alternative to other usual treatments prescribed for the treatment of pain.

Em 1964, fundou a Sociedade Francesa de M...

“…Jedną z powszechnie znanych metod jest mezoterapia, zwana również intradermoterapią, polegająca na śródskórnych iniekcjach aktywnych substancji leczniczych. W latach 70. minionego stulecia francuski lekarz Michel Pastor po raz pierwszy zaczął stosować tę metodę w dermatologii estetycznej, a obecnie wykorzystuje się ją do ostrzykiwania twarzy oraz innych okolic ciała -zarówno w celach leczniczych, jak i w profilaktyce przeciwstarzeniowej [11][12][13].…”

StreszczenieZmiany fizjologiczne zachodzące w organizmie w trakcie menopauzy mogą wpływać na funkcje seksualne kobiety. Znaczący wpływ na obniżenie aktywności seksualnej mają zmiany stężeń hormonów: estrogenów, androgenów i progesteronu. Najczęstsze zaburzenia seksualne obejmują zmniejszenie popędu płciowego, awersję do współżycia, brak pobudzenia, ból w trakcie stosunku. Dostępne są liczne rodzaje suplementacji hormonalnej umożliwiające poprawę jakości życia. Wiele danych potwierdza skuteczność stosowania estrogenów w redukcji objawów atrofii pochwy u kobiet w okresie menopauzalnym. Suplementacja androgenami związana jest z poprawą funkcji seksualnych i satysfakcji ze współżycia. Współcześnie coraz częściej stosuje się metody leczenia miejscowego za pomocą autologicznego przeszczepu komórek tłuszczowych, iniekcji kwasu hialuronowego oraz osocza bogatopłytkowego, w celu uzyskania poprawy elastyczności tkanek oraz regeneracji i nawilżenia pochwy.Słowa kluczowe: menopauza, terapia hormonalna, estrogeny, kwas hialuronowy, osocze bogatopłytkowe. SummaryHormonal transformations occurring during the menopause may alter female sexual functions. Reduced levels of estrogens, progestagens and testosterone play a significant role in sexual activity alteration. It is characterized by reduced sex drive, aversion to sex, lack of arousal and pain during intercourse. There are many possible solutions improving quality of life. Various studies confirm effectiveness of estrogen supplementation in menopausal vaginal atrophy. Androgen supplementation is associated with the sexual function and satisfaction improvement. Currently, quite often local treatment methods are used. These are autologous graft of adipose cells, hyaluronic acid and platelet rich plasma injections in order to increase tissue elasticity and to improve regeneration and lubrication of vagina.
