Tightening of the eyelids with monopolar radiofrequency in Asians.

ABSTRACT: Eyelid laxity is a visible sign of aging that can significantly affect appearance and comfort; however, many patients remain reluctant to undergo surgical blepharoplasty. Monopolar radiofrequency (RF) offers a non-invasive alternative. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a 0.25 cm² monopolar RF tip for upper eyelid tightening in Asians. Fourteen subjects received a single session of treatment with a 0.25 cm² tip monopolar RF device. Multiple passes were applied to the upper eyelid and lateral orbital regions. Topical anesthesia was applied 30 min before treatment, and a protective plastic contact lens was used during the procedure. Standardized digital photography, physician assessments, and patient-reported outcomes were obtained at each visit. All subjects demonstrated clinic
