About Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a radiofrequency (RF) microneedling treatment that rejuvenates your appearance and improves the structure of your skin. (1) By delivering controlled energy that penetrates the skin at different depths, this treatment stimulates collagen production, which can help you achieve more youthful-looking skin. (2) Microneedling treatments can effectively tighten skin on the face, neck, and body. Morpheus8 administers a form of bipolar radiofrequency that allows our specialists to effectively address multiple concerns. (2) These can include: (3)

  • Skin laxity
  • Stretch marks
  • Scars
  • Acne
  • Fine lines
  • Wrinkles

Although traditional microneedling treatments can renew your skin, Morpheus8 provides deeper tissue restructuring and adipose (fat) tissue remodeling with radiofrequency. Morpheus8 has gained popularity in the past few years, reflecting a greater patient interest in non-surgical options for skin rejuvenation. (3) The treatment can improve your appearance with minimal downtime because it does not require incisions or anesthesia, making it an ideal nonsurgical treatment option. Whether it is a wrinkle reduction or acne scar treatment, patients seek Morpheus8 for its impressive range of aesthetic improvements and minimal recovery time.

Benefits

The advanced technology used in a Morpheus8 treatment allows patients to benefit in numerous ways. Alongside the expertise of our specialists, patients at Prima Medical Care often experience advantages through a Morpheus8 treatment like:

  • Minimally invasive procedure: Unlike surgical facelifts, Morpheus8 does not require major incisions, leading to less trauma to the skin.
  • Effective collagen production: The dual action of microneedling and radiofrequency stimulates collagen formation, promoting tighter, smoother, and younger-looking skin over time.
  • Customizable treatments: We can adjust Morpheus8 based on the condition of your skin to help you address multiple concerns during a single appointment.
  • Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles: The treatment effectively diminishes the appearance of wrinkles, for smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
  • Skin tightening: Patients often experience a tightening effect following the procedure, contributing to enhanced facial contouring.
  • Acne scar reduction: Morpheus8 has been shown to significantly reduce the visibility of acne scars for a more even complexion.
  • Minimal downtime: Although some patients experience a flushed appearance, most patients feel comfortable returning to their normal activities afterward.
  • Long-lasting results: After a treatment, you can enjoy lasting results for several months or longer if you take good care of your skin.

Preparation

You will receive detailed preparation instructions at the end of your consultation. As a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment, Morpheus8 does not require extensive preparations, but there are still some key guidelines to follow to optimize your treatment. Patients should refrain from using retinoids or aggressive exfoliants on their skin for at least a week before their procedure. Please inform your specialist of any allergies or sensitivities you may have, as well as your current medications. You must avoid blood-thinning medications/supplements, nicotine, and alcohol before your treatment. Please arrive at your appointment with clean skin and without any makeup.

Procedure

During the Morpheus8 procedure, patients will typically receive topical anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Once the anesthetic takes effect, we will carefully maneuver the Morpheus8 device throughout the targeted treatment zones. The Morpheus8 device is a small, handheld wand that uses tiny needles to make small punctures in the skin while simultaneously emitting radiofrequency waves. (1) The depth that these waves and needles reach is determined in your consultation, as different issues respond to different treatment levels. As your skin is punctured and receives radiofrequency energy, your skin generates collagen. (2) Collagen is a protein that helps your skin maintain its structure and youthful-looking appearance. (3) The procedure usually lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Recovery

After the treatment, patients may notice a temporary slight redness and/or mild swelling in the treatment area. If you experience discomfort, you can alleviate it with a cold compress and/or over-the-counter medications as long as you keep your skin clean and do not put any pressure on the treatment area. You should avoid heavy exercise. You will also need to avoid excessive sun exposure and protect your skin with sunscreen to prevent damage.

We will let you know when to schedule a follow-up so we can monitor your progress. Most patients can resume regular activities within a day or two, with significant improvements in their skin’s appearance.
