(A) This 62-year-old woman presented with facial laxity and underwent Profound RF microneedling to rejuvenate the facial skin, including the periocular, perioral, and mandibular regions as well as the forehead and neck. She also received intramuscular Profound RF treatment with 35 insertions into the lower and lateral orbicularis oculi. (B) By 6 months postoperatively, the patient appeared more youthful, with improvement in the number and severity of animation-induced rhytids surrounding the orbicularis oculi. Note the reduction in the quantity of wrinkles in the caudal–orbital and lateral–canthal regions. This outcome suggests that the orbicularis oculi has been tightened; consequently, less contraction is required to achieve ocular competency.
