“…These findings may be related to the higher Glogau scores of our patients. Despite the higher depth parameters, the side effect profile in the present study was the same as that According to authors, the overall improvement was better on the deep penetration side (Lu et al, 2017). In our study, we applied the RF (Kołodziejczak & Rotsztejn, 2017).…”

“…The penetrating depth of microneedles was 0.8 mm in the periorbital region on the deep side and 0.5 mm on the superficial side. According to authors, the overall improvement was better on the deep penetration side (Lu et al, ). In our study, we applied the RF treatment at deeper penetration on the lower third of the face and achieved good clinical results, even in the patients with Glogau type III and IV skin types.…”

Lasers and other light sources are popular treatment options for facial rejuvenation in recent years. In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of fractional radiofrequency (RF) and fractional Erbium: YAG (Er:YAG) laser for facial and neck skin wrinkles, objectively. Three hundred and thirty‐three patients treated with fractional RF and fractional Er:YAG laser were evaluated by two blinded dermatologists. Fractional Er:YAG laser was more effective for the periorbital area; whereas fractional RF treatment was more effective for perioral, nasolabial and jawline areas. There was no statistically significant difference in side effects between two treatment groups. In conclusion, both modalities significantly improve skin wrinkles; however, it should be considered that there may be regional differences between the treatment outcomes of them.

“…More recently, fractional RF devices using microneedles were developed to deliver more heat to deeper skin tissues while reducing the risk of side effects such as thermal burns. With fractional RF devices and microneedle RF electrodes, one can deliver focused RF energy and control the depth, area, and intensity of treatment . Fractional RF devices with microneedle RF electrodes can therefore be applied for non‐invasive treatment of wrinkles, skin laxity, atrophic scars, and acne scars .…”

Summary Background and objectives Conventional treatment options for eyelid fat bulging are generally limited to surgical approaches. However, many attempts have been made recently to manage this disfigurement using non‐surgical interventions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a micro‐insulated needle radiofrequency system for the treatment of lower eyelid fat bulging. Methods This is a single center pre‐post comparative study. Twenty‐two subjects with lower eyelid fat bulging were treated twice using the needle radiofrequency system, at an interval of four weeks. Two types of partially insulated needles with different lengths were used in each session. A three‐dimensional photogrammetry system was used to objectively measure changes in the extent of the fat bulge. The investigator's global assessment (IGA) of the severity of fat bulging was also evaluated. Results The average extent of fat bulging was decreased significantly after twelve weeks, and was maintained until 24 weeks. The IGA score was significantly decreased after four weeks and further decreased after twelve weeks, and then maintained until 24 weeks. There were no side effects, except for lower eyelid swelling and bruising that lasted for about a week. Conclusion The micro‐insulated needle radiofrequency system can be a beneficial and well‐tolerated treatment for lower eyelid fat bulging.

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund und Zielsetzungen Die konventionellen Therapieoptionen zur Reduktion von infraorbitalen Fett depots (gemeinhin auch als Tränensäcke bezeichnet) sind im Allgemeinen auf chirurgische Verfahren beschränkt. In letzter Zeit wurden jedoch zahlreiche Versuche unternommen, um diesem Schönheitsfehler mit nichtchirurgischen Interventionen zu begegnen. Ziel dieser Studie war es, die Wirksamkeit und Sicherheit eines Radiofrequenzsystems mit isolierten Mikronadeln zur Behandlung von infraorbitalen Fett depots zu untersuchen. Methoden Dies ist eine monozentrische Studie mit Vorher‐Nachher‐Vergleich. Zweiundzwanzig Probanden mit infraorbitalen Fettansammlungen wurden mit einem micro‐insulated needle radiofrequency system zweimal in einem Abstand von vier Wochen behandelt. Bei jeder Sitzung wurden nacheinander zwei Nadelaufsätze mit teilisolierten Nadeln unterschiedlicher Länge eingesetzt. Mit einem dreidimensionalen Photogrammetrie‐System wurden die Veränderungen der infraorbitalen Fettpolster objektiv vermessen. Das Ergebnis wurde darüber hinaus vom Untersucher mit Hilfe des Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Scores beurteilt. Ergebnisse Das durchschnittliche Ausmaß der Fettpolster hatte sich nach zwölf Wochen signifikant verringert und dieser Zustand blieb bis Woche 24 erhalten. Der IGA‐Score veringerte sich nach vier Wochen signifikant, nahm bis zur Woche 12 weiter ab und blieb anschließend bis zur Woche 24 erhalten. Bis auf Schwellungen und Blutergüsse am Unterlid, die nach etwa einer Woche abgeheilt waren, gab es keine Nebenwirkungen. Fazit Die Radiofrequenztherapie mit isolierten Mikronadeln ist eine effektive und nebenwirkungsarme Therapieoption, um infraorbitale Fettdepots zu behandeln.

Curative effects of microneedle fractional radiofrequency system on skin laxity in Asian patients: A prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled face-split study

Abstract: MFRS is an effective method to improve skin laxity. Thermal lesion approach seems to provide better outcomes when applied to deep dermal layers. It is necessary to consider the skin thickness of different facial regions when choosing the treatment depth.
