Morpheus8
Radiofrequency microneedling
Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge aesthetic treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to rejuvenate the skin and improve its overall appearance. Morpheus8 is designed to target a variety of skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin texture, and skin laxity.
The procedure involves the use of a handheld device that delivers both microneedling and RF energy to the deeper layers of the skin. The device features a matrix of microneedles that penetrate the skin, creating tiny micro-injuries. Simultaneously, RF energy is delivered through the microneedles, heating the underlying layers of skin.
The combination of microneedling and RF energy stimulates the body’s natural healing response and promotes the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining firm, youthful-looking skin. The micro-injuries created by the microneedles also trigger the skin’s renewal process, resulting in smoother, more radiant skin over time.
Morpheus8 is suitable for use on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, décolletage, arms, abdomen, and thighs. It is a versatile treatment that can be customized to address specific skin concerns and individual patient needs.
One of the key benefits of Morpheus8 is its ability to deliver RF energy to deeper layers of the skin while minimizing damage to the surrounding tissue. This makes it an effective and safe option for skin tightening and rejuvenation, with minimal downtime and discomfort compared to more invasive procedures.
Overall, Morpheus8 offers patients a non-surgical solution for improving the appearance of their skin, with long-lasting results and minimal side effects. However, it’s essential to consult with a qualified provider to determine if Morpheus8 is suitable for your specific skin concerns and goal.
Pre-Treatment
Pre-treatment care for radiofrequency microneedling typically involves several steps to ensure optimal results and minimize the risk of complications. Here are some common pre-treatment guidelines:
Consultation: Schedule a consultation with us and during the consultation, we will discuss your skin concerns, medical history, and expectations for the treatment.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure and use broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher on the treatment area for at least two weeks before the procedure. Sunburned or tanned skin can increase the risk of complications and interfere with the effectiveness of the treatment.
Discontinue Certain Medications: Inform your provider about any medications or supplements you’re taking, as some medications, such as blood thinners or retinoids, which may need to be temporarily discontinued before the treatment to reduce the risk of bruising or other side effects.
Skincare Products: Follow any specific skincare recommendations provided by your provider. They may advise you to discontinue the use of certain topical products, such as retinoids or exfoliants, for a few days before and after the procedure.
Hydration: Keep your skin well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to the treatment. Moisturize your skin regularly to maintain its hydration levels.
Avoid Irritants: Avoid using harsh or irritating skincare products, such as products containing alcohol or strong acids, in the days leading up to the procedure. These products can cause the skin to be sensitive and increase the risk of irritation during and after the treatment.
Inform Your Provider: Inform your provider of any changes in your health or medications since your consultation. We will need to be aware of any new developments that may affect your suitability for the procedure.
Shave Treatment Area: If necessary, shave the treatment area the day before the procedure. This ensures that the microneedles can penetrate the skin smoothly without interference from the hair.
