Morpheus8 RF Microneedling

By Jill Robbins

Experienced and Board Certified Aesthetic Laser Operator

Morpheus8 is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical procedure that uses both radiofrequency and microneedling to fractionally remodel and contour the face and body with minimal downtime. By penetrating deep into the skin, Morpheus8 stimulates your body’s production of collagen and elastin to reveal a radiant, smooth, tight, and rejuvenated appearance. Morpheus8 can be used to treat wrinkles, hyperhidrosis, acne scars, stretch marks, cellulite, surgical scars, and more.

Morpheus8 Radiofrequency Microneedling Benefits

Unlike other microneedling devices, Morpheus8 can penetrate deeper into the skin. By targeting the deeper layers of the dermis, Morpheus8 triggers the body’s natural anti-aging process. Once this begins, your skin will smooth and firm, leading to improved fine lines and wrinkles and some fat reduction.

While this procedure is most commonly requested for facial rejuvenation, wrinkle reduction, and skin tightening, Morpheus8 can treat any area of the body. The Morpheus8 device can be set to different levels to treat each patient’s individual needs. Perhaps most exciting, Morpheus8 technology is safe for all skin tones and poses minimal risk of hyperpigmentation.

Morpheus8 addresses a wide range of concerns, including:

  • Skin laxity
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Stretch marks
  • Acne and surgical scars
  • Cellulite
  • Hyperhidrosis

WHAT TO EXPECT & POST-PROCEDURE CARE

Morpheus8 is a non-invasive cosmetic skin treatment that features a new subdermal adipose remodeling device, penetrating deeper into the skin than any other microneedling treatment. Its unique needles and the tiny punctures they cause do not tug or pull at the skin, allowing for a more comfortable experience. The procedure can take anywhere between 15-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Since there is minimal downtime with Morpheus8, patients can usually apply makeup 48 hours after the procedure. Patients should expect to see pinpoint scabbing and/or bruising a few days after treatment and slight redness for up to 1 week, depending on treatment parameters.

Patients should moisturize the treatment area and avoid direct sun exposure for a few weeks before and after each treatment. Daily use of a medical-grade, broad-spectrum sunscreen is recommended. In addition to reducing the future risk of skin cancer, sunscreen also helps reduce wrinkles and slow the aging process.

After your Morpheus8 treatment, one of our team members will walk you through post-procedure care. Results can be seen within a few days; however, the most noticeable results will appear after three weeks. Improvements will continue up to three months after treatment. Depending on your goals, your provider may recommend a series of 3 or more Morpheus8 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, with maintenance treatment(s) recommended every 6 to 12 months for best, prolonged results.
