The conventional way of computing string theory amplitudes is not sufficient. The aim of this talk is to define a suitable off-shell continuation of Polyakov approach. Then this off-shell continuation will be used to compute mass-renormalization. At the end we will generalise this method to superstring theory. arxiv: 1311.1257, 1401.7014, 1404.6254
