Morpheus8 is a treatment that ticks all the boxes for those seeking quick sessions with minimal downtime while achieving noticeable skin improvements. At Advanced Aesthetics, we use this versatile solution for various skin concerns, and it is an effective option for many of our patients. Morpheus8 is perfect for treating signs of aging such as wrinkles or sagging skin and can also be used as a skin resurfacing treatment to resolve hyperpigmentation and other tone and texture concerns.
What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 combines microneedling and radiofrequency energy to rejuvenate your skin from within. It works by delivering energy deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production, and reshaping underlying tissues. These technologies are what allow us to tackle a range of skin issues such as wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven texture, during one simple treatment. With minimal downtime, Morpheus8 offers a simple approach to enhancing skin’s appearance and feel.
How the Morpheus8 Treatment Works
The Science of Microneedling
Microneedling with InMode Morpheus8 involves creating tiny punctures in the skin using fine needles. These tiny perforations are what triggers the body’s natural healing process. This starts with fibroblasts that are sent to the area to heal it. Fibroblasts are responsible for collagen and elastin production. Increased collagen and elastin lead to improved skin texture, reduction of scars, and much more.
The Role of Radiofrequency in Skin Tightening
InMode Morpheus8 also uses radiofrequency energy to enhance skin tightening. This energy heats the deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen remodeling and contraction. The combined effect of microneedling and radiofrequency leads to more significant improvements in skin laxity and tone.
Treatment Steps
Pre-Treatment Preparation
Before undergoing a skin tightening treatment with Morpheus8, certain preparations are necessary. Your skin should be clean and free of any makeup, lotions, or oils. Avoid sun exposure and discontinue any retinoid or exfoliating treatments a few days prior. This helps keep your skin in the best condition for the treatment.
During the Treatment
During the Morpheus8 treatment, a topical anesthetic cream is often applied to numb the skin. The device is then used to create punctures in the skin while delivering radiofrequency energy. You might feel warmth from the radiofrequency energy as it heats the skin. The treatment typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Post-Treatment Care
After Morpheus8 for skin rejuvenation, keep the area clean and avoid sun exposure for a few days. Use a gentle moisturizer and sunscreen to protect your skin. Following these steps helps enhance the treatment results and supports the healing process.
What Morpheus8 Does for Your Skin
Fine Lines Reduction
The tiny punctures that stimulate collagen production help to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful appearance. These new collagen fibers support the surface of the skin, leading to the visible reduction of these lines over time.
Skin Firmness Improvement
The combination of microneedling and radiofrequency energy works deep within the skin layers to promote firmness. This process tightens and lifts the skin, addressing sagging and improving overall elasticity. Radiofrequency energy provides some of this skin tightening right away, with additional improvements as time goes on. The Morpheus8 treatment effectively enhances skin firmness both on the face and on the body.
Texture Improvement
By stimulating collagen and elastin production, the treatment improves skin texture. It helps to smooth out rough patches and reduce the appearance of large pores. The Morpheus8 results in a smoother, more refined skin surface, which contributes to a healthier and more vibrant complexion.
Tone Enhancement
Using InMode Morpheus8, we can address uneven skin tone by promoting new, healthy skin cell growth. This helps to diminish discoloration and creates a more uniform skin tone. Over time, your skin looks more even and radiant with less hyperpigmentation such as sun spots.
Scar Reduction
Morpheus8 is particularly effective at reducing the appearance of scars, including acne scars. The treatment remodels the skin’s structure, breaking down scar tissue and stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin.
What to Expect From Morpheus8 Results
Immediate Effects Post-Treatment
After a Morpheus8 treatment, you may notice some immediate effects. Mild redness and swelling are common and usually subside within a few days. Your skin might feel tighter and more refreshed right away, with an initial glow from the additional blood flow. These immediate changes pave the way for more significant improvements over time.
Long-Term Results
The Morpheus8 results continue to develop over several weeks as collagen production increases and skin remodeling occurs. You will gradually see a reduction in fine lines, improved skin texture, and enhanced firmness. The long-term benefits include a smoother, more youthful appearance that can last for several months to a year, depending on individual factors.
Frequency of Treatments
The number of sessions needed for optimal results can vary. Generally, a series of three treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is recommended for the best skin tightening treatment outcomes. Maintenance sessions may be needed every six months to a year to sustain and enhance the results, depending on your skin’s response and your aesthetic goals.
