About Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a radiofrequency treatment that includes non-invasive microneedling and can take years off the face and body in a single session. Morpheus8 combines the benefits of microneedling and radiofrequency energy, allowing it to rapidly treat the most common signs of aging. Further, it produces these effects all without any invasive surgery or any significant downtime.

The Morpheus8 system produces radiofrequency energy from each needle. As the needle penetrates the skin, it stimulates the healing and regeneration response from the body. With this juggernaut combination, Morpheus8 in Scottsdale takes years off the skin while simultaneously stimulating new collagen and skin cells, restoring the youthful, glowing, and vibrant look of the skin.

What to expect during Morpheus8

Before your Morpheus8 treatment, your provider will apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

They will then select the appropriate handpiece and needle configuration based on your personalized treatment plan. During the session, you may feel a gentle warming sensation as the device glides over the targeted areas.

Following treatment, your skin may look slightly sunburnt, although that effect will diminish over the following several days. Patients may apply makeup after 24 hours of the procedure to hide redness. Primarily, patients report minimal to no discomfort during the days following Morpheus8 radiofrequency treatment, and the results ultimately become a shining representation of the procedure.

Am I a candidate for Morpheus8?

In most cases, candidacy for Morpheus8 simply depends upon the cosmetic issues one wants to address. Patients who would like to see significant improvement in their skin without the downtime of surgery can benefit from Morpheus8. Typically, Morpheus8 patients are in their 30s, 40s, and 50s and are seeking renewal and tightening of their skin.

Additionally, they may be seeking cosmetic relief from acne scars that have not responded to other treatments. Morpheus8 may not be right for patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, smokers, or have any serious medical condition.

How is Morpheus8 different from other radiofrequency microneedling treatments?

Morpheus8 is a technology that offers unrivaled skin rejuvenation compared to other treatment modalities. Unlike other radiofrequency microneedling devices, Morpheus8 uses patent-protected bipolar technology that transmits from the tip of the microneedle pin back to the base of the handpiece. This direction of RF energy allows for perpendicular skin tightening in the direction that we desire for skin rejuvenation.

Other bipolar devices transmit RF energy between the pin tips, but not back through the thickness of the skin. Also, Morpheus8 offers a depth of needle penetration up to 4 mm and treatment depth of 5 mm. At this maximum depth, Morpheus8 not only treats the full thickness of skin, but also melts the layer of subcutaneous fat just beneath the skin.
