What is Morpheus8?

MORPHEUS8 - RADIOFREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING

Morpheus8 contours and rejuvenates the face, neck, and body with transformative results with minimal downtime utilizing the skin’s inherent capacity to heal itself from the inside out. 

Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to address skin laxity for a lifted and rejuvenated look. By targeting different depths, from the epidermis to the dermis to the subdermis, the technology creates a more toned complexion. 

24K gold-tipped microneedles stimulate the skin’s natural healing response to generate new skin cells while radiofrequency delivers thermal energy to aid in fat remodeling, skin tightening as well as collagen and elastin production. These are two essential proteins—collagen and elastin—give the skin its firmness and elasticity, which unfortunately begin to naturally decline beginning around age thirty, resulting in sagging skin and wrinkles. 



Morpheus8 can treat: 

  • Sagging skin on the face, neck, arms, knees, thighs and abdomen

  • Acne scarring on the cheeks, chin and body

  • Stretch marks 

  • Fine lines and deep wrinkles

  • Skin tone and texture, reducing pore size 

  • Under-eye and under-chin fat deposits 

  • Cellulite on thighs or arms 



WHAT HAPPENS DURING A MORPHEUS8 TREATMENT?

We apply a specialized topical numbing cream to reduce discomfort. Most people rate their pain 2-5 on a scale of 1-10. 

After numbing the skin, the tip of the microneedling device is applied directly onto the skin, with multiple passes done to each area of your skin to get the best results. We customize the energy level and depth of treatment to reflect your aesthetic goals.

A Morpheus8 treatment can last anywhere from 45-75 minutes in total, depending on the area being treated.



WHO CAN USE MORPHEUS8 TREATMENTS?

Unlike other resurfacing modalities, Morpheus8 is suitable for all skin tones and types and individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity (i.e., “jowls” and “turkey neck”), wrinkles, or scars. 



DOWNTIME AFTER MORPHEUS8

There is minimal downtime with Morpheus8. You will experience mild redness and slight swelling immediately post-treatment, but you will be free to return to normal activities the following day while being careful to avoid heat, intense exercise, and direct sun exposure for the next day or two. We encourage all patients to be mindful of wearing sunscreen and continuing with a nourishing skin regimen as the skin continues to recover post-treatment. 



IT TAKES TIME TO SEE THE EFFECTS

The effects of the treatment can often be seen immediately although the anti-aging effects of Morpheus8 treatment require a few months as the subdermal fat remodels, the skin tightens and continues to generate new collagen using the body’s own healing properties. We recommend a series of treatments, usually in a monthly sequence for 3 months and then allowing 6 months of waiting to see the full effect. 

Whether you’re seeking facial rejuvenation or targeting specific areas on your body, Morpheus8 can address a range of aesthetic concerns. Ideal candidates are those with realistic expectations and a desire for non-surgical skin tightening, texture improvement, and youthful complexion.
