Skin Tightening and Smoothing
At the Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay and Stunning Looks™ Medi Spa, in addition to our safe, effective vein treatments, we also offer an array of non-surgical tightening and smoothing treatments that painlessly tighten and smooth different areas of the skin and produce fantastic aesthetic transformations. Dr. Jeffrey A. Hunt utilizes mesotherapy for body shaping, and Acoustic Wave Therapy™ for the reduction of cellulite. For more information on our tightening and smoothing treatments, contact our Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg, Florida-area office.
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is an effective, minimally-invasive alternative to liposuction for cellulite reduction and body contouring. Treatments involve the injection of fat-eliminating medications at targeted, localized pockets of fat. Mesotherapy stimulates the fat cells to shrink, allowing the body to naturally flush out these unwanted pockets. Because of the especially small syringes used for mesotherapy treatment, Dr. Jeffrey A. Hunt can provide precise body contouring with minimal trauma to tissues. Mesotherapy is an outpatient procedure typically lasting less than forty-five minutes for each session. For optimum results, 5 to 10 sessions may be recommended.
During treatments, medications consisting of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and hyaluronic acid are injected into the mesoderm (middle layer of the skin). These medications promote the production of collagen and elastin, improving the appearance of the skin and reducing the proliferation of wrinkles. Contact our Tampa, Florida office to schedule a mesotherapy consultation with Dr. Jeffrey A. Hunt.
Recovery from Mesotherapy Treatment
Because mesotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure, patients can return to their daily routines immediately after treatment. Minor side effects such as bruising and swelling may occur. If multiple treatments are required, Dr. Hunt will usually wait a week between treatments in order to accurately gauge improvement. The injections are relatively painless so only topical anesthesia is required.
Mesotherapy is a natural process which works with your body. Longevity of the results will be determined in large part by your lifestyle. As with invasive procedures such as liposuction, good dietary habits and exercise are necessary to keep the fat from returning.
Mesotherapy: Advantages
Over the years, mesotherapy has become a popular non-surgical alternative to liposuction. For body contouring, it is not uncommon for patients to lose in excess of six inches of body fat after 10 sessions. Mesotherapy is also an excellent tightening treatment, with proven effectiveness in smoothing problems areas such as the hips, thighs, and buttocks.

Acoustic Wave Therapy™
Acoustic Wave Therapy™ is an advanced cellulite treatment that helps smooth skin in areas where dimpling commonly forms: the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, and arms. Acoustic Wave Therapy™ improves the skin’s appearance by causing the connective tissue to stretch, increasing elasticity. Patients typically experience improvement in the skin’s texture and elasticity as well as dermal firming. Acoustic Wave Therapy™ cellulite treatments, available to our St. Petersburg, Florida-area patients, typically last 30 minutes. For optimum results, patients may require six or more treatments.
Recovery from Acoustic Wave Therapy™
A non-invasive procedure, Acoustic Wave Therapy™ patients can return to their daily routines immediately following treatment. Minor side effects such as bruising or swelling may occur. Dr. Hunt will stagger appointments a week apart for patients requiring multiple treatments in order to accurately gauge improvement.
