Our team of professionals is committed to providing you with an uplifting rejuvenation experience with Morpheus8!
Preparation
To get ready for Morpheus8 it is important to avoid sun exposure and certain medications that can make your skin more sensitive. We suggest following a skincare routine to ensure you achieve the best possible results for your skin. You will also need to:
- Avoid sun exposure and UV light that could cause damage to your skin
- Refrain from using tanning beds or waxing your skin
- Stop using retinoids and chemical peels
- Stop taking blood thinners (NSAIDs)
If you have a skin infection, we may delay your treatment until your skin heals. If you have a history of viral skin infection, please take care to avoid triggers that could cause an outbreak or irritate your skin.
Procedure
The Morpheus8 treatment involves using a special handpiece to deliver microneedling and radiofrequency energy to the target area. Usually, the treatment takes an hour, and before it begins we will apply numbing cream to minimize any discomfort. Depending on your skin type and needs, we can adjust the length of the needles during your treatment to penetrate deeper layers and the needles transmit RF and heat to regenerate your skin and boost new collagen production.
Recovery
After the treatment, it is common for patients to have temporary redness and swelling from the needles. These symptoms usually go away within a few days. You will receive instructions on how to take care of yourself after the treatment to ensure a smooth recovery. Depending on your skin type, we can prescribe ointment to prevent infections and expedite your recovery process. During your recovery, it is important that you use SPF and prevent exposure to UV light that could cause damage to your skin and affect your ability to heal. Some patients may need more than one session, and we can discuss your individualized treatment plan during your consultation.
Results
You can start to enjoy your results within a few days of undergoing treatment. However, the noticeable and significant improvements usually become apparent after around three weeks. It is important to keep in mind that the best results are typically achieved through a series of treatments recommended by your specialist. Your skin will need time to heal after the microneedling therapy to regenerate the collagen and elastin for a more youthful appearance. During your recovery, taking care of your skin is essential for achieving the best results.
Additional Facial Treatments
You can enhance the rejuvenation and anti-aging effects of Morpheus8 by combining it with additional treatments. We offer several facial contouring treatments to help you meet your aesthetic goals:
- Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that restore volume to your skin and help you achieve a younger-looking complexion. If you recently lost volume from aging or weight changes, dermal fillers can provide you with plumper cheeks, lips, and hands depending on your aesthetic goals.
- Daxxify is a peptide-infused neuromodulator treatment that can help you achieve glowy skin and smooth dynamic wrinkles. We can use Daxxify with dermal fillers depending on your goals.
- Botox is a neuromodulator that limits the repetitive muscle movements that wear on your skin and cause wrinkles. Although it does not provide volume, Botox can fight facial aging and help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Our specialists may suggest additional procedures that complement your skin goals. To learn more, read our services guide.
