What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a device that combines microneedling and radofrequency (RF) to achieve deep remodeling. This fractional treatment stimulates your body’s natural ability to produce the skin-strengthening compounds of elastin and collagen so you get tighter skin from the inside out. Morpheus8 treatments use radiofrequency energy to penetrate the tissue and reach the deeper layers of skin, affecting the dermis and epidermis for maximal results. Morpheus8 has colorblind technology that can be used on all skin types.
What can I expect during and after a Morpheus8 treatment?
In most cases a topical anesthetic cream is applied for approximately forty-five minutes prior to make your treatment more comfortable. If a more aggressive treatment is required, you may opt for nitrous oxide to ease any further discomfort. After the treatment you may notice mild redness or swelling that should subside within 72 hours. You will be given a post-procedure kit to assist in the healing process. It is also important to wear sunscreen to protect your newly treated skin.
When will I see results after RF microneedling?
Visible results can be seen within a few days to weeks, but improvements do continue up to three months after a treatment as collagen production continues. This is why we recommend having a series of at least three treatments of Morhpheus8 about one month apart.
How does a thread lift work?
Thread lift is a minimally invasive solution to lift sagging skin without major surgery. Sutures are placed under local anesthesia to lift and tighten the face, neck, or jawline. These threads work by generating new collagen along the suture lines. The results are instant, improve with time, leave no scars, and can last for years.
