Intradermotherapy is a medical procedure introduced by Pistor in 1958 that consists in the application of intradermal injections of diluted pharmacological substances that are given directly into the region to be treated. There are reports of the use of intradermotherapy to treat painful diseases, skin diseases and unaesthetic conditions. Medical clinics have been recently offering the treatment of intradermotherapy, using the more popular name for this practice - mesotherapy. There is only scant scientific information about this subject published in periodicals indexed on MedLine. Only a few states rigorously pursue this method. Most indexed publications about this subject deal with the complications of this technique. Unaesthetic dermatoses have been a common complaint in dermatologic clinics, and it has become necessary to have scientific evidence to give to patients. Therefore, well-researched scientific studies about this technique are necessary to offer data to medical professionals that will clearly explain to patients both the benefits and the risks of these procedures. A bibliographical review was conducted and we verified the need for new studies with adequate methods to confirm the benefits of intradermotherapy as used in dermatologic treatment.
皮内注射疗法是皮斯托尔于1958年提出的一种医疗程序，该疗法是将稀释后的药理物质皮内注射到待治疗区域。有报道称皮内注射疗法可用于治疗疼痛性疾病、皮肤病和外观不佳的状况。最近，一些医疗诊所开始提供皮内注射疗法，并采用了更为大众熟知的名称——中胚层疗法。在被MedLine索引的期刊上，关于这个主题的科学信息非常少。只有少数几个州严格采用这种方法。大多数关于这个主题的索引出版物都涉及该技术的并发症。外观不佳的皮肤病一直是皮肤科诊所常见的问题，因此有必要向患者提供科学依据。所以，需要进行充分研究的科学研究，为医疗专业人员提供数据，以便向患者清楚解释这些治疗方法的益处和风险。我们进行了文献综述，并证实有必要采用适当方法开展新的研究，以确认皮内注射疗法在皮肤科治疗中的益处。
