Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge fractional skin treatment which stimulates collagen production of the underlying layers of the skin. This treatment targets the deeper layers of the skin, resulting in the reorganization of the building blocks of the skin.
This procedure is minimally invasive, safe, non-surgical, and is accomplished by using a matrix of micro pins to renew deeper layers of the skin with almost no patient downtime.
RF (radio frequency) energy heats the deep layers of the skin in a controlled manner which revitalizes the collagen. The treatment improves skin complexion and texture for a more radiant and youthful appearance, a natural anti-aging treatment.
Morpheus8 can be used on any area of the face or body that would benefit from skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, and refined contouring. Morpheus8 also treats scars, acne , acne scars, stretch marks and cellulite.
Depending on your particular needs and desires, 1-3 treatments are typical. Morpheus8 Treatments are permanent, 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 12 -18 months as part of a rejuvenation maintenance plan.
Some tightening will be visible immediately. New collagen and elastin formation begins after about 4 weeks, and becomes most noticeable about 3-6 months after treatment, and continues to improve up to a year.
The benefit of Morpheus8’s color blind technology is that it can be used on all skin types. The unique properties allow even darker tones to be treated safely.
A Morpheus 8 treatment takes approximately 1-2 hours. The first hour is for prep and numbing. We use a topical numbing cream to numb the area and minimize discomfort. Depending of the size of area, actual treatment time is 30 minutes or more. During the treatment you will feel heat and pressure on the treatment area.
