therapies.<\/jats:p>\n Mesotherapy involved the injection of microdoses of vitamins and nutrients, and serves as the backdrop for this current intervention.<\/jats:p>\n MBT is advocated to work on improving both epidermal and dermal damage through cellular repair induced by dilute botulinum toxin (BT).<\/jats:p>\n The technique does not require any sophisticated technology to perform other than a syringe loaded with dilute BT.<\/jats:p>\n Patients of all Fitzpatricks and ages are eligible for therapy without risk other than rare, temporary paresis.<\/jats:p>\n The technique involves injection of hyperdilute BT intradermally across the entire expanse of the face, neck, chest, etc., to effect desired skin changes.<\/jats:p>\n None.<\/jats:p>\n Other ingredients could be added to further enhance the efficacy of MBT.<\/jats:p>\n MBT offers unparalleled safety and efficacy in all skin types for a variety of skin improvements, including active acne, acne scarring, pores, texture, and generalized cutaneous sun damage and
