Figure 4. — (A) This 60-year-old woman underwent Profound RF dermal rejuvenation of the forehead; periocular, perioral, and mandibular regions; and neck. In addition, she received RF microneedling placed intramuscularly, with 60 insertions into the upper lip and 50 into the lower lip. (B) Six months after the procedure, the patient had upper-lip shortening and eversion, with improved vermilion show. The reduced upper-lip length also resulted in activation of the mentalis to elevate the lower lip, ensuring oral competence. The patient stated that she is happy with her lip volume and with the harmonization of her upper and lower lips. The addition of filler is possible but no longer required.
