The recent innovations in clinical protocols, materials, autologous hemocomponents applications, surgical and non-surgical approaches, such as chemical peels, neuromodulator, dermal fillers, laser resurfacing, photorejuvenation and radiofrequency have been proposed in literature to improve facial soft tissues, wrinkles and sagging on facial soft tissues to achieve appreciable results in safety with a reduced invasivity.
