Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling has been used to reduce skin laxity, due to aging, on the face and neck. Our objective for this case study was to evaluate the use of RF in combination with microneedling to nonsurgically improve skin laxity, a result of significant weight loss, on the thighs of a 39-year-old woman. Two sessions of subcutaneous RF microneedling were performed five months apart on the patient's bilateral medial thighs.

- Facial aging leads to thinning skin, loss of elasticity, and volume decrease, resulting in a gaunt appearance, particularly in the upper face and temporal area.
- Injecting hyaluronic acid filler into the temporal fossa can restore a youthful look and balance facial structure, employing various techniques like the "fanned" pattern and a three-injection approach.
- Potential complications from filler injections include bruising and swelling, with rare but serious risks such as infection and blindness; awareness and readiness to treat these issues are crucial for practitioners.

- The use of chemical additives in cosmetic products aims to enhance their effectiveness, maintain quality, and extend shelf life.
- There has been growing concern about harmful chemicals like dioxane, formaldehyde, lead, parabens, and phthalates used in these products, linked to potential health risks.
- Studies suggesting health risks often test higher chemical exposure levels than what consumers actually encounter in cosmetics, indicating that the real exposure is much lower when used as directed.
