Dear Gadget
As I said in this week's DietDoc Topic, do a Search on the Internet for SA and use search terms like 'Mesotherapy'. But keep in mind that you need to have this type of treatment done by a medical dr qualified in the technique and that any injections or other semi-invasive treatments can have negative side-effects. You will also not lose masses of weight, unless you go on a low-fat diet and do plenty of exercise.
Best regards

I lost 46kgs on Injection in 6 months, no side effects, very strict diet. Dr Roussow in Durbanville- He is great! They will courier the injection up to you in Gauteng if you ask. There is a Dr Botha in JHB who does the same thing, but much more expensive, think his practice is in Corlett near Melrose Arch.

have you kept the weight off and did you have to follow a specific diet?

Why don't you give them a call. I seem to remember that they know of someone or are affiliated to some clinic in Gauteng. Their number is 021 - 975 6299. Good luck!

It costs about R300 - R500 per month. I pay cash for it as our medical savings account already ran out in April. Best to phone to find out if they'll pay. It is given on prescription, so maybe? Absolutely no side-effects - only weight loss!

Hi

What was the price range more or less? I doubt that the medical aid will cover this. Did you have any side affects??

It worked for me. I lost 6 kg in 1 months time - at Boland Laser Clinic in Durbanville.
