Build Collagen to Lift, Tighten & Improve Texture
How does it work?
Morpheus8 takes the benefits of microneedling and amplifies them with additional tissue heating using radiofrequency energy. The microneedles penetrate to coagulate fat and contract connective tissue while simultaneously generating heat that stimulates the dermis, encouraging the production of long term collagen.
Different depths are used considering the area of the face or neck being treated as well as the desired results. By creating these tiny wounds, the body’s healing response ramps up collagen production, providing long-term benefits up to three months beyond the treatment.
Resurfacing Tip
Perform radiofrequency skin resurfacing. This tip is different as its 24 pins are blunt and uncoated, and it can be used to improve texture and tone. This does not do dermal remodeling and is often considered an “add on”. May increased downtime and recommended to take extra precautions for darker skin types.
Prime Tip
Used for small delicate areas or places with sharp contours with a smaller, nimbler tip with only 12 pins. Otherwise, it is comparable to the standard Morpheus8 tips. It is often used to target sensitive areas like around the eyes and mouth when needed. This can be used alone or as an “add on”.
Standard Tip
Uses 24 microneedle pins that are partially gold coated to allow the radiofrequency energy to emerge only at the tip. These tips allow up to 4mm of penetration with an additional 1-2mm of tissue heating ability. They are designed to cause no damage or change to the surface of the skin, making it safe for all skin colors and types.
Body Tip
Uses 40 microneedle pins that are partially gold coated to allow the radiofrequency energy to emerge only at the tip. These tips allow up to 7mm of penetration with an additional 1-2mm of tissue heating ability. They are designed to cause no damage or change to the surface of the skin, making it safe for all skin colors and types.
Face & Body
Morpheus8 targets subdermal layers of the skin and tissue on the face and body to stimulate collagen in the layers of the dermis to help smooth, tighten and lift.
All Skin Types
Morpheus8 can be used safely and effectively on all skin types Fitz I-VI to include individuals with sensitive skin and active acne.
Results
Most patients some results immediately following a Morpheus8 treatment session, these are often due to swelling initially. The goal is for gradual improvement over the course of several month as it takes time for collagen to build and the tissue to remodel. Most people benefit from a treatment plan of multiple sessions (3-5 sessions performed every 4-6 weeks initially with yearly maintenance) as rarely will only one session achieve optimal results.
Morpheus8 is used to enhance the appearance of the signs of aging, both due to sun damage and age, including wrinkles, texture, and skin laxity. It can also benefit those who suffer from acne scars.
