Morpheus8 is a skin tightening, anti-aging treatment that helps address some of the more common signs of aging, including complexion issues, fine lines and wrinkles, and skin laxity.
How It Works
Morpheus8 is a new cutting-edge fractional device that combines microneedling and radio frequency to remodel and contour your face and body. This treatment penetrates deep into your skin and fat resulting in a smoother and sleeker appearance.
Morpheus8 has the ability to penetrate deeper into the skin than any other microneedling device. This treatment is a minimally invasive, safe, non-surgical option for sub-dermal adipose remodeling and tightening of the skin. Not only does Morpheus8 help with collagen remodeling and tightening of the skin, but will also break down superficial fat that accumulates as we age creating a saggy appearance most commonly noticeable in the lower face, neck, and often the knees. Benefits of Morpheus8
Morpheus8 can be used on areas of the face and body. Benefits of the Morpheus8 treatment are:
The Results
For optimal results we recommend 3-4 treatments. Number of treatments required is dependent upon the patient’s treatment goals and individual current skin condition. Visible results can start to be seen within a few weeks, but the most noticeable results typically appear after three months.
The results of Morpheus8 are long term and can last for years, but it’s important to invest in your new healthy skin by using a regular skin maintenance program of medical grade skincare, treatments such as Lumeca (also known as IPL) and daily application of SPF 30+.
Am I a Good Candidate for Morpheus8?
If you are looking to improve moderate signs of aging such as jowls, sagging of the cheeks and neck, Morpheus8 may be an ideal solution. Morpheus8 also manages acne scarring, stretch marks, sun damage, enlarged pores and poor skin texture. Morpheus8 is also used on other parts of the body, to treat loose skin, stretch marks, and wrinkles. The benefit of Morpheus8’s technology is that it can be used on all skin types. The unique properties allow even darker tones to be treated with little risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is common with other resurfacing methods.
What to expect during the procedure
Before your treatment, a topical numbing cream will be applied to your skin for approximately one hour. During your treatment, Dr. Gupta will use the state-of-the-art Morpheus8 platform to administer 24 silicone-coated needles beneath the skin and into the superficial fat. The device delivers a pulse of radiofrequency energy that tightens the soft tissue, coagulates the fat, and stimulates the production of elastin and collagen. Many patients describe the treatment as a pinching sensation with heat to follow, but quite tolerable. The treatment typically takes 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the number and sizes of areas being treated.
How quickly will I see results?
Visible results can start to be seen within a few weeks, but typically the most noticeable results appear after three months as new collagen and elastin forms. For optimal results we recommend three treatments spaced four weeks apart. The results of Morpheus8 are long-lasting but skin continues to age consistent with lifestyle and genetics. Skin needs to be encouraged to continue to create new collagen and elastin in order to maintain a youthful appearance. Therefore, subsequent treatments may be recommended every 6-12 months as part of a rejuvenation maintenance plan.
What kind of post procedure care is required?
Patients should moisturize the treatment area and avoid direct sun exposure. It is also recommended that patients use a good, broad spectrum sunscreen every day. Since patient downtime is minimal, makeup can be applied 1 to 2 days after the treatment. Patients should expect to see micro lesions a few days after treatment and slight redness for up to 1 week depending on treatment parameters.
Can Morpheus be combined with other treatments?
It’s rare that we have a treatment that can work for pretty much anyone and that addresses pretty much all skin concerns. Fine lines and wrinkles, check; skin laxity, check; acne and acne scarring, check; textural irregularities, check; hyperpigmentation, check; stretch marks, what?, check; sun damage and dark spots; check. Seriously, if you’ve got it, we have it covered with Morpheus8.
