1. A method of rejuvenating skin comprising the steps of:
- assessing the skin to be rejuvenated;
selecting a proper tape program for application and removal of tape to a surface of an applicator tip of an ergonomically shaped handheld apparatus;
applying an appropriate tape to the surface of the applicator tip;
setting in motion the applicator tip throughout the time that the applied tape is in contact with the treated area of the skin; and
implementing the selected tape program so that the motion of the applicator tip and the tape on the applicator tip impacts a rejuvenating effect on the skin being treated.

3. A skin rejuvenating, system for a user'"'"'s skin, comprising:
-
an ergonomically shaped handheld device having motion generating means for imparting desired motion to a partially inserted component at a distal tip thereof, and a distal tip surface having wall portions defining, a connection aperture for connecting a rejuvenating surface component portion into said distal tip area aperture, and a handheld hand actuatable motion generating and control means; and
a distal component having a first portion designed for insertion into a motion generating subsystem of the handheld device, and a second portion having a shaped configuration to conform to a user'"'"'s skin surface, with said conformed surface comprising means for placing a skin treatment surface element material on said surface to apply energy to the user'"'"'s skin suitable to regenerate portions of the skin.

4. A method of using a comprehensive rejuvenation program for rejuvenating skin comprising the steps of:
-
assessing the skin to be rejuvenated and the intended rejuvenation goal;
selecting a proper therapeutic algorithm from a selection of algorithms which is appropriate for a particular user;
selecting a disposable surface element for application of a skin treatment product, said element having at least one surface designed for applying a penetrating and rejuvenating effect on a skin area being treated;
configuring the skin treatment product element on an ergonomically shaped re-usable handheld device portion suitable for receiving motion generating energy; and
applying motion generating energy to said handheld device portion while the skin treatment product element is in contact with the skin to be rejuvenated so that the element is in moving contact with the skin and generates rejuvenation by restructuring and regeneration of skin. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A combination therapy method for rejuvenating skin comprising the steps of:
-
assessing the skin to be rejuvenated and the intended rejuvenation goal;
selecting a proper therapeutic algorithm from a selection of algorithms which is appropriate for a particular user;
selecting a disposable surface element for application of a skin treatment product, said element having at least one surface designed for applying a penetrating and rejuvenating effect on a skin area being treated;
configuring the skin treatment product element on an ergonomically shaped re-usable handheld device portion suitable for receiving motion generating energy;
applying motion generating energy to said handheld device portion while the skin treatment product element is in contact with the skin to be rejuvenated so that the element is in moving contact with the skin and generates rejuvenation by restructuring and regeneration of skin; and
re-assessing the skin to be rejuvenated to identify further treatment required. - View Dependent Claims (12)
