Morpheus8

Morpheus8 uses an effective combination of radiofrequency and microneedling that works almost anywhere on the face or body.

About Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a system that combines the benefits of microneedling and radiofrequency energy to restore and smooth the skin deeply. Dr. Schalit offers Morpheus8 for the face and all over your body to firm and tighten targeted areas. This treatment can address textural issues and improve the appearance of scars and stretch marks. It also liquefies layers of fat under the skin to shape and sculpt areas of concern. 

Morpheus8 uses tiny needles in a grid pattern to create microchannels in the skin. Each channel triggers the surrounding cells to begin a healing and repair process. The needles enter the skin to a controlled, customizable depth. They also transmit radiofrequency energy that heats the deeper layers of the skin. This energy triggers skin cells to produce collagen. Morpheus8 can treat many skin conditions all over the face and body, including acne scarring, skin laxity, and uneven skin tone.

The duration of your Morpheus8 treatment depends on the size of the areas being treated. A small, targeted area on the face may take about 15 minutes, while a larger area on the body can take 60 minutes or more. Dr. Schalit may apply numbing cream before starting. Some people report feeling pressure, heat, prickling, and other sensations during treatment. You will typically need three or more treatments to see your best results. 

You will have no downtime after the Morpheus8 treatment. Most people who have Morpheus8 on their face or body return to work and other activities immediately. The area may look red and feel warm and irritated for a few days. Dr. Schalit may recommend products to apply after treatment while the skin is prepared to absorb them deeply. This can include products to firm the skin or diminish the appearance of scars. You may need to avoid strongly scented or irritating products in the area while your skin heals. You will need to avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen on exposed areas during the healing process. 

You may notice that skin in the treated area looks smoother and more even-toned within a few days after treatment. Superficial issues improve quickly as new skin cells rise to the surface. The most noticeable results start to appear after a few weeks and can take up to three months to develop. 

Most people find that results last about a year. You can maintain firmness and skin tightening with yearly treatment sessions. You may not need maintenance treatments for scars after the scar tissue has been smoothed. Morpheus8 has customizable depth settings, giving it an advantage when used on the body where skin varies widely in thickness.

While many laser treatments cannot be used on darker skin tones, Morpheus8 is safe for all skin types and tones from I to VI. Good candidates want to address conditions such as scars, loss of firmness, and targeted areas that can benefit from sculpting. Ideal candidates want to treat minor skin laxity, while significant sagging skin will require a different procedure to eliminate. Dr. Schalit will describe what you can expect based on your skin concerns and the area of your body being treated.
