- Abstract
- Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are increasingly used for midface augmentation, which can be performed for facial rejuvenation. Previous study proved that radiofrequency (RF) treatment prior to HA filler injection may provide synergistic and long-lasting effects for the reduction of nasolabial fold wrinkles. Here, we report a case in which the efficacy of two different treatments using RF and HA filler and HA filler alone was assessed using a split-face design. In conclusion, the intradermal needle RF with HA filler may be a more safe and effective method than HA filler alone for correcting midface volume deficit. Appropriate volume loss replacement should correct the flattening and furrowing of the central area of the mid-cheek, which is a consequence of the aging process. Also, it will provide a more youthful appearance. Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are an established intervention for correcting facial volume deficiency. In a previous study (1), radiofrequency (RF) was used to overcome the short duration of HA fillers and resulted in a good outcome.
