AbstractMesotherapy is a skin rejuvenation procedure that has gained popularity in recent years. The products that are used for mesotherapy can be administered using multiple intradermal injections, either individually or through use of a dermal roller, which penetrates usually 192 needles at the same time, and also through topical creams. In this article, the author, who has gained experience in using this procedure over the past 10 years, provides information on the background to mesotherapy's development, the contents of the products used, techniques of administration, and her personal experiences with clients. A random sample from of 100 clients who received mesotherapy via individual injections was selected and descriptive data on their age, gender, ethnicity, and frequency of treatments are presented in this article. Use of the dermal roller technique is also presented, with similar data on the client group who had received this treatment at the same clinic. The data can be interpreted as inferring that the procedure of individual injections is particularly well tolerated by clients. However, further evidence is needed on client outcomes and satisfaction with this treatment, and its use in conjunction with procedures such as botulinum toxin and dermal fillers.
