What is Morpheus8? A New Standard for Microneedling

Given the numerous advancements we’ve made in skincare over the past 100 years, it should come as no surprise to see that revolutionary treatments that improve the look and health of your skin are still being developed and integrated with modern technology.

Morpheus8 is a wonderful example of this collaboration. This innovative process combines the basics of microneedling with state-of-the-art technology to elevate the skincare experience, providing noticeable results with a non-invasive service.

What is Morpheus8?

The Morpheus treatment is, in simple terms, a radiofrequency microneedling procedure. The process of facial rejuvenation is accomplished by combining the restorative properties of microneedling with the advanced technologies of utilizing radiofrequency to improve skin tone and texture.

How does Morpheus8 work?

Morpheus8’s results are effective due, in part, to its microneedling foundations. Ultrafine needles penetrate the surface of the skin resulting in the development of micro injuries. As the channels are created, the body signals to begin the healing process, sending blood, oxygen, and vital nutrients to the newly treated area. Simultaneously, specially selected serums are applied to the skin and absorbed through the newly formed channels, rapidly delivering vitamins and nutrients to help support the production of collagen. 

What separates Morpheus8 from other microneedling treatments?

Taking it a step further than your standard microneedling treatment, Morpheus8 uses a special blend of microneedling radiofrequency to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. These frequencies easily penetrate the skin, aiding in the generation of healthy new skin cells. 

What does Morpheus8 treat?

While this treatment is wonderfully effective, it’s important to understand what skin concerns the service is best at treating. Below we’ve outlined the four most common skin concerns that are targeted by a Morpheus8 session.

Bags under the eyes

With treatment targeting the area right below the eyes, clients can see an immediate reduction in the appearance of bags, as well as any discoloration that may be present. Additionally, any discoloration from sun damage can be addressed as well.

Frown lines

Say goodbye to those stubborn frown lines. After each session, the skin begins to produce more collagen, firming up fine lines, providing an overall skin tightening effect. In addition to frown lines, expect to see a reduction in loose skin, stretch marks, and wrinkles around the area(s) being treated. 

Acne scars

Getting rid of acne is only half the battle. Unfortunately, sometimes as acne dissipates, it can leave behind a range of acne scarring – impacting skin texture and self-confidence. Thankfully, Morpheus8 has a great track record in reducing the appearance of the uneven skin surface left in the wake of an acne outbreak.

Enlarged pores

No matter how clear your skin is, having enlarged pores really affects how smooth your face looks. Large pores can also negatively affect makeup application, making the finished product look uneven and textured. After a handful of sessions, clients should see a noticeable reduction in pore size.

Aftercare of Morpheus8

Once the facial has been completed, it’s important to follow the appropriate post treatment instructions to achieve the best possible results for your skin. Below we’ve listed what to expect following your facial, as well as what you can do to secure bright, healthy skin. 

Expect some minimal swelling

Since there are micro-channels being created at the surface of the skin, some customers may notice slight swelling following their appointment. This will go down within a few hours after the Morpheus8 service. A cold compress can be used if needed, but try to avoid touching the area as much as possible. 

Use gentle skincare

Gentle cleansers and unscented products will be the preferred method of caring for your skin following the Morpheus8 treatment. Remember: for at least 48 hours, less is going to be more when it comes to caring for and protecting the integrity of your skin.
