Fractional radiofrequency microneedling (FRM) is a popular, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation modality for treating acne scarring. In this study, we aimed to systematically evaluate the current literature on the efficacy and safety of FRM as a monotherapy to treat different types of facial acne scarring. We systematically reviewed all available literature on FRM techniques used for acne scarring by searching the PubMed and EBSCO databases up to July 2024.

In intrasheath peroneal tendon subluxation, the peroneal tendons subluxate on each other within the retrofibular peroneal tendon sheath.
