Morpheus8 has been a game changer in the world of plastic surgery, and for good reason. A non-invasive option that yields drastic results, the treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology to address a variety of skin problems. The procedure begins with the application of a numbing cream to ensure maximum comfort during treatment. Tiny needles penetrate the skin to create micro-injuries, stimulating collagen production and resolving visible skin concerns. Radiofrequency waves via a handheld device then penetrate even deeper, targeting underlying structural issues for a smoother, firmer appearance. While the treatment is most commonly used on the lower face and neck, Morpheus8 is a very versatile treatment and can be used on any area of the body that suffers from sagging or excess skin, like the abdomen or thighs.
Benefits of Morpheus8:
Morpheus8 and microneedling are both popular skin rejuvenation treatments. While both treatments have the same goal of improving the tone and texture of your skin, they do differ. Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology to penetrate deeper into the skin than microneedling alone. The result is a much more intense collagen stimulation that promotes natural tissue regeneration and a smoother, more youthful appearance. Compared to microneedling, Morpheus8 is more precise and less invasive.
Post-treatment, patients may see a small amount of pinpoint bleeding from the needles. This should only last a few minutes following the microneedling. Most patients return to work the day after their treatment, as the procedure is non-invasive and requires very little downtime. Minor redness, swelling, or bruising may occur in the days following treatment. The process itself is relatively painless, even with the deep penetration of needles. You may feel a prickling sensation from the needles, followed by a warm feeling as the radiofrequency passes over your skin.
Morpheus8 is perfect for those looking to reduce the signs of aging and improve the overall appearance of their skin. It is suitable for all skin types and can be used on the face, neck, chest, abdomen, and arms to help you achieve beautiful, younger-looking skin with minimal downtime.
Patients can expect to see results from a Morpheus8 treatment within a few weeks. It typically takes between three and six treatments to get the desired effects, and the results can last for up to two years. With each treatment, you will see an improvement in skin tone, texture, wrinkles and fine lines, scars, pigmentation, and other signs of aging.
