Morpheus8

What is MORPHEUS8?

MORPHEUS8 is an extremely effective technology that uses the unique combination of microneedling and fractional radiofrequency (RF) to stimulate collagen, tighten skin, and smooth skin texture.

What does it do?

  • lifts sagging in the neck and jawline

  • tightens jowls and facial skin laxity

  • smooths lines and creases around the eyes

  • reduces fine lines and wrinkles

  • improves skin texture, deep creases and folds

  • treats active and cystic acne

  • improves acne scars on the face

  • treats skin pigment issues

  • smooths cellulite in the buttocks/legs

  • tightens skin laxity on the body (eg. abdomen, knees)

What areas can be treated?

Morpheus8 can be used on any areas that can benefit from resurfacing and skin tighetning renewal. Commonly treated areas include: face, neck, jawline, lower eyelids, abdomen, tight, legs and buttocks.

How many sessions are recommended?

We typically recommend three sessions separated by 4-6 weeks for optimal results. Sometimes additional treatments are needed to achieve best results.

How fast will I see results?

Results are often visible within a few days, and best results continue to appear over the next three to six months after your initial treatment, as your collagen production continues.

Is MORPHEUS8 right for me?

MORPHEUS8 technology can be used on all skin types and skin tones.

It is not recommended if: you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of skin cancer or keloid scarring, or if you have a pacemaker/defibrillator. You cannot undergo a MORPHEUS8 treatment while on Accutane and you must have been off this medication for 6 months prior. You cannot have a fresh tan within the past 2 weeks prior to your MORPHEUS8 session. If you have a history of cold sores, we recommend pre-treating with an antiviral medication. We recommend stopping topical retinol 5-7 prior to your treatment. Please contact us to find out if you are good candidate for this treatment.

 
 

What can I expect in my session?

Before coming to your Morpheus8 appointment, do not apply any makeup or skin products to the areas you will be have treated. Our aestheticians will apply a special numbing cream to your skin 1 hour prior to your treatment for optimal comfort. Your MORPHEUS8 session will take approximately 30-45 minutes depending on the areas being treated. Initial redness and mild swelling will appear during your treatment, and generally subsides within 24-72 hours after.

What is the post-procedure care?

After your treatment, our aestheticians will apply an occlusive ointment barrier to protect your skin and you should continue to apply this for 24-48 hours, after which you can start a gentle skin care routine with daily broad-spectrum sunscreen for the next 5-7 days. You may apply makeup 1-2 days after treatment.

Do not go swimming for at least 24 hours post-treatment. No exercising or strenuous activity for the first 24 hours post-treatment. Sweating and gym environments are harmful, rife with bacteria, and may cause adverse reactions. Avoid direct sun exposure for the next 1-2 weeks.
