Mesotherapy is a controversial cosmetic procedure which has received publicity among the lay people, in the internet and in the media. It refers to minimally invasive techniques which consist of the use of intra- or subcutaneous injections containing liquid mixture of compounds (pharmaceutical and homeopathic medications, plant extracts, vitamins and other ingredients) to treat local medical and cosmetic conditions. This position paper has examined the available evidence and finds that acceptable scientific evidence for its effectiveness and safety is lacking. IADVL taskforce, therefore would like to state that the use of this technique remains controversial at present. Further research and well-designed controlled scientific studies are required to substantiate the claims of benefit of this mode of therapy.
中胚层疗法是一种有争议的美容程序，在普通民众、互联网和媒体中都有一定的知名度。它是指一种微创技术，包括使用含有化合物（药物和顺势疗法药物、植物提取物、维生素和其他成分）的液体混合物进行皮内或皮下注射，以治疗局部医学和美容状况。本立场文件审查了现有证据，发现缺乏其有效性和安全性的可接受科学证据。因此，IADVL 工作组认为，目前这种技术的使用仍存在争议。需要进一步的研究和精心设计的对照科学研究来证实这种治疗模式的益处。
