Employing the nappage technique involves administering numerous superficial injections at a 45-degree angle, reaching a depth of only 2mm. The practitioner maintains steady pressure on the syringe plunger while swiftly maneuvering the needle, injecting a drop of amniotic fluid every 2-4mm across the targeted area. This procedure enhances skin hydration, resulting in a more radiant, plumped, and youthful appearance with immediate, observable effects. Commonly referred to as picotage or nappage, the latter term originates from the French word "covering."
