Morpheus 8 Review:

Morpheus8 treatments offer a non-invasive alternative to surgical facelifts and neck lifts, favored by those seeking minimal downtime. This approach is gaining popularity, evidenced by high-profile endorsements from celebrities like Kim Kardashian, who showcased the treatment on Instagram, and Lindsay Lohan, who expressed her fondness for the procedure.

Morpheus8 stands out in the realm of radiofrequency (RF) microneedling devices. It leverages both RF technology and microneedling, where superfine needles emit RF energy to cause controlled skin injuries. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, the essential proteins for skin’s firmness and elasticity.

Distinct from other devices, Morpheus8’s advantages include its ability to penetrate deeper into the skin and its innovative ‘burst’ mode, which targets multiple skin layers simultaneously to intensify collagen production.

Am I a Good Candidate for Morpheus 8?

Good candidates for Morpheus8 are individuals seeking to improve their skin texture, contour, and firmness without invasive surgery. It’s well-suited for those who wish to address issues like fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, skin laxity, and uneven skin tone.

Ideal candidates are in good health, have realistic expectations about the outcomes, and understand that the best results may require multiple sessions. It’s also important for candidates to not have active infections or inflammatory skin conditions in the areas to be treated. As always, a consultation with a qualified professional at Be Your Kind is the best way to determine individual suitability for Morpheus8. Book a complimentary consultation here.

Morpheus 8 Procedure:

The Morpheus8 treatment is performed on an outpatient basis, negating the need for anesthesia or IV sedation. Patients typically experience mild discomfort, making it an efficient procedure that incorporates the following steps:

1. A topical numbing cream is liberally applied to the areas targeted for improvement.
2. A specialized device, outfitted with micro-pins that emit radiofrequency energy, is used to infuse the RF energy deeply into the skin’s layers.

The device’s radiofrequency energy can be adjusted by our providers, who select the appropriate tip depth, to either intensify or lessen the treatment’s impact. The total duration of the procedure generally spans approximately 90 minutes, though this can vary depending on the size of the area being treated.

Morpheus 8 Results:

Typically, initial results from Morpheus8 treatments can be seen within a few days after the procedure, as the skin starts to heal. However, the most noticeable results tend to appear after about three weeks, when the deeper layers of the skin have begun to respond to the treatment. Optimal results, especially those related to collagen and elastin remodeling, may take up to three months or more, as collagen production and skin tightening continue to improve over time. Three treatment sessions are often recommended for the best outcome, with each session spaced several weeks apart.

Morpheus 8 Downtime:

Downtime after a Morpheus8 treatment is generally minimal, with most patients able to resume their normal activities within a day or two. Right after the procedure, it’s common to experience some redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a sunburn, but these side effects typically subside within a few days. Some people might also notice micro-lesions or slight peeling, but this is part of the natural healing process as the skin rejuvenates itself. It’s crucial to follow the post-procedure care instructions provided by our practitioner to ensure a smooth recovery and effective results.
