Theory
Biorejuvenation is a common term to indicate mesotherapy for skin rejuvenation (also called biorevitalization or mesolift).
The goal of this technique is to increase the biosynthetic capacity of fibroblasts, inducing the reconstruction of an optimal physiologic environment, the enhancement of cell activity, and the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid (HA). The desired final effect is a firm, bright, and moisturized skin, and the injection in the superficial dermis of suitable

After the obtainment of a signed informed consent, the physician will clean the skin of the patient using an antiseptic solution (alcohol free) and will perform microinjections with a 5-mL Luer-Lock syringe equipped with a 30 1/2- or 32-G, 4-mm needle or with a syringe with a skin injection therapy 2.5-mm needle or with a Meso-gun.
The injection techniques that can be performed are the following (always keeping the needle with an inclination of 45°):
