How Microneedling Works
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries to the skin, which triggers your body’s natural healing response. As the skin heals, it produces more collagen and elastin, leading to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. Both Morpheus8 and Rejuvapen fall under the microneedling category but use different tools and techniques.
What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is an advanced microneedling treatment that combines traditional microneedles with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This added technology allows Morpheus8 to target deeper layers of the skin, offering enhanced results.
Benefits of Morpheus8 include:
- Tightens loose or sagging skin
- Improves deep wrinkles and fine lines
- Minimizes acne scars and stretch marks
- Enhances skin texture and tone
- Offers longer-lasting results compared to traditional microneedling
Morpheus8 is ideal for clients who want a more intensive treatment with the added benefit of skin tightening, especially in areas like the jawline, neck, and cheeks.
What is Rejuvapen?
Rejuvapen is a more traditional microneedling device that uses a motorized pen with fine needles to create microchannels in the skin. It does not include radiofrequency, making it a gentler option.
Benefits of Rejuvapen include:
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines and mild acne scars
- Improves overall skin tone and texture
- Typically has a shorter recovery time
- Great option for first-time microneedling clients
Rejuvapen is best for those looking to treat surface-level concerns without needing deeper skin remodeling.
Which One is Right for You?
Choosing between Morpheus8 and Rejuvapen depends on your skin type, concerns, and desired outcomes. If you’re struggling with more advanced signs of aging or deeper scars, Morpheus8 may be the better fit. For those with mild concerns or those new to cosmetic treatments, Rejuvapen can deliver visible results with minimal downtime.
