Radiofrequency Microneedling: The Science Behind Morpheus8
Morpheus8 transcends the realm of treatment to become a science. It innovatively combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy, delivering heat deep into the skin to initiate the body’s natural healing process. This process boosts collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer and rejuvenated skin.
Notably, Morpheus8 stands out for its high safety profile as the first and only FDA-approved technology that can effectively penetrate the subdermal tissue. By creating micro-injuries with microneedles and delivering RF energy, Morpheus8 triggers an increased production of collagen. This contributes to the rebuilding of the skin’s deeper layers and leads to overall skin revitalization and resurfacing.
Tailored Treatments for Every Skin Type
Versatility is a defining strength of Morpheus8. The treatment is compatible with all skin types and tones, including darker ones, offering safe treatment options where traditional lasers might pose risks. This makes Morpheus8 an inclusive treatment, accessible to a wide range of individuals.
With adjustable microneedle depths and device settings, Morpheus8 offers personalized treatment protocols to meet the specific needs of each patient. Regardless of gender, most healthy individuals can benefit from Morpheus8’s anti-aging treatments, effectively addressing issues from fine lines near the sensitive eye area to stretch marks and thicker skin around the neck and jawline.
Morpheus8 Skin Resurfacing
The Morpheus8 skin resurfacing journey commences with a minimally invasive procedure. Using micro-pins and radiofrequency (RF) heat, Morpheus8 resurfaces the skin, effectively addressing a range of skin concerns including:
- wrinkles
- lines
- discoloration
- jowls
- enlarged pores
The deep penetration into the skin and fat leads to a smoother appearance, targeting specific layers where stretch marks are located. The exciting part is, after the first Morpheus8 treatment, patients can start seeing noticeable results, which generally become most apparent after three weeks.
Morpheus8's Role in Collagen Renewal
Youthful radiance hinges on the body’s collagen production, a process that Morpheus8 expertly stimulates. By combining microneedling with radiofrequency technology, Morpheus8 triggers the body’s natural healing process, promoting a tightening effect on the skin.
As we age, natural collagen production diminishes, causing common signs of aging. Morpheus8 addresses this by stimulating collagen renewal, leading to improved skin tightness and texture. The collagen formation stimulated by Morpheus8 can continue for several months after treatment, providing further enhancements to the skin’s appearance over time. This makes Morpheus8 a promising natural anti aging treatment option.
The youthful radiance achieved through Morpheus8’s collagen renewal can last between 1 to 3 years, underscoring the treatment’s efficacy in maintaining a youthful appearance.
Use Cases for Active Acne and Acne Scarring
Beyond its celebrated anti-aging benefits, Morpheus8 is also a potent remedy for active acne and acne scarring. Using its radiofrequency microneedling technology, Morpheus8 targets and treats active acne, decreasing oil gland activity and restoring skin texture.
The beauty of Morpheus8 is its ability to significantly reduce or even eliminate acne scars, including all three types: icepick, boxcar, and hypertrophic scars. Compared to other therapies such as Fraxel, Morpheus8 offers a gentler approach with minimal downtime and swift results.
Minimally Invasive Approach to Stretch Marks and Skin Laxity
Morpheus8 confronts common skin concerns such as stretch marks, sagging skin, and skin laxity through a minimally invasive technique. The treatment results in fewer side effects and complications compared to surgical options, making it a preferred choice for many.
Morpheus8’s versatility allows it to target various body areas for skin tightening and lifting, as well as accommodating different skin tones, such as:
- the face
- neck
- arms
- thighs
- bra line
Apart from treating skin laxity, Morpheus8 is also effective in improving postpartum abdominal laxity, providing a non-surgical alternative to the traditional ‘mommy makeover’.
What to Expect from Your Treatment
The Morpheus8 journey is a thrilling experience. A typical initial treatment plan includes a series of 3 sessions, spaced 4 to 12 weeks apart, depending on individual skin conditions. The anticipation builds as visible improvements can often be seen within a few days, with the most noticeable results appearing after three weeks.
The results of Morpheus8 are long-lasting, with skin tightening effects that can last between 2-5 years. To achieve optimal results and maintain collagen production, annual maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain the overall effects.
Post-Treatment Care
Proper post-treatment care is key to maximizing Morpheus8 benefits and ensuring optimal healing. Here are some tips to follow:
- Wash the treated area with a mild cleanser and lukewarm water without scrubbing.
- Apply a cold compress to soothe swelling.
- Avoid picking scabs.
- Avoid applying makeup immediately after the treatment.
The days after the treatment should involve a gentle skincare regimen. Here are some guidelines to follow:
- Retinol products can be reintroduced after a week.
- Makeup can be worn 48 hours post-treatment.
- It is important to protect the skin from sun exposure, hence the use of a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen SPF 30 is recommended.
- Avoid heat-inducing activities for at least 3-4 weeks post-treatment.
An Unexpected Benefit for Excessive Sweating
Beyond skin rejuvenation, Morpheus8 also offers a durable solution for hyperhidrosis, characterized by excessive sweating. The treatment for hyperhidrosis with Morpheus8 can be completed typically in one session and is customizable to target specific areas like the underarms.
A noticeable decrease in excessive sweating is generally observed within 2-3 weeks post-treatment, with full benefits apparent around three months. The results of Morpheus8 treatment for hyperhidrosis are permanent, offering individuals a long-lasting respite from this often debilitating condition.
