Exclusion criteria comprised active infections, skin diseases, pregnancy, or history of recent anti\u2010aging treatments. Thirty\u2010four patients completed a 10\u2010question questionnaire after 3\u00a0months of treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among the respondents, 82% expressed satisfaction with the RF treatment, reporting significant improvements primarily in the mid and lower face, and eyelids. Mainly, patients noted improvements in skin laxity (52.9%), skin texture (17.6%), and skin tone (11.7%). Notably, 73.5% noticed changes within 1\u20132\u00a0months post\u2010treatment, with the peak effect observed at 1\u20132\u00a0months. Mild complications (swelling and erythema) were reported, usually resolving within a week. The mean pain score was 1.94 (\u00b10.66), indicating mild to moderate discomfort.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Monopolar RF devices, apply high\u2010frequency electric currents generating heat, stimulating collagen production for skin tightening. This study's unique focus on detailed subjective patient experiences provides insights valuable in clinical settings, aiding clinicians in managing patient expectations and achieving optimal results. The satisfaction rates align with previous findings, emphasizing RF treatment's efficacy in addressing facial laxity, especially in the mid and lower face. Positive feedback extended beyond skin tightening, encompassing skin texture and tone improvements. While the study's observation period was 3\u00a0months post\u2010treatment, longer\u2010term studies are warranted for comprehensive assessments.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study underscores the efficacy of monopolar RF device, as a non\u2010invasive and effective anti\u2010aging treatment. The findings contribute to diversifying the RF market, potentially aiding clinicians in optimizing patient care. Considering the growing complexity of patient demands and treatment responses, this study serves as a valuable reference for clinicians engaging in RF treatments.<\/jats:p>\n
