Skin Rejuvenation

Morpheus8 penetrates deep into the skin and fat for a smoother and sleeker appearance. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, the building blocks will reorganize themselves in a natural anti-aging process. There is little to no damage to the dermis and this procedure provides an extremely uniform effect.

Morpheus8 is designed to combine microneedling and radio frequency to achieve deep fractional remodeling. Morpheus8 doesn’t just address superficial tissue; it directs energy toward the adipose fat that is notorious for creating jowls, bra rolls, and more.

Morpheus8, can and is often combined with Botulinum Toxins and/or filler treatments, such as Restylane or Versa. This combination enhances the final results by improving skin texture, visible signs of aging, wrinkles, fine lines, and skin tightening for a natural, youthful appearance.

Morpheus8 Radiofrequency Microneedling Instrument

Minimally invasive facial fractional remodeling

Safe. Non-invasive. Effective.

Radiofrequency microneedling treatments such as Morpheus8 are safe to use on a wide variety of skin types. There is little risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which can sometimes accompany other resurfacing methods.

Radiofrequency microneedling is a cosmetic procedure. It uses tiny needles and radiofrequency waves to rejuvenate facial skin. The treatment uses a fine needle to create controlled microwounds or channels, in the skin. The damage stimulates the production of capillaries, elastin, and collagen for healthy new skin.

Compared with treatments like chemical peels and dermabrasion, radiofrequency microneedling is minimally invasive which means there is little to no downtime.

Who is a candidate for microneedling with radiofrequency?

Safe to use on a wide variety of skin types

Many adults are excellent candidates for microneedling with radio frequency. This minimally invasive technique may be ideal for you if you wish to reduce the appearance of:

  • Acne or acne scars
  • Poor skin texture
  • Sun damage
  • Deep lines and creases
  • Mild sagging or jowls
  • Enlarged pores
  • Stretch marks

Combining microneedling with radio frequency may be ideal for patients interested in achieving tighter, smoother skin but prefer to do so without the risks of surgery. Every treatment is completely customized to your specific concerns. Our board-certified surgeons will develop your individualized plan during your consultation.

FAQs about microneedling with radiofrequency

Are There Any Side Effects After Treatment?

Side effects of microneedling with radiofrequency may include transient redness and swelling. It is possible that some patients may experience temporary bruising. The microneedling aspect of treatment may leave tiny points on the skin that crust and flake off. This should be expected if Morpheus 8 is combined with Fractora.

Mild tenderness or soreness may result from the absorption of RF energy and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. Our team will discuss the side effects you might experience during your consultation and decision regarding the extent of your treatment plan.

Is microneedling with radiofrequency painful?

It is important to us that our patients have access to the treatments they want without the fear of intolerable discomfort. Microneedling with radio frequency is conducted after a topical anesthetic has been applied to the skin. Within approximately thirty minutes, the cream desensitizes epidermal nerve endings to reduce the sensations from radio frequency to a mild heat. This also significantly reduces or eliminates the sensation of the microneedles passing over the skin.

In addition to numbing superficial tissue with topical analgesic, we also offer patients the opportunity to increase their physical and emotional comfort using ProNox®. This self-delivery nitrous oxide system puts the power in your hands as you undergo the treatment of your choice. Ask about ProNox® during your consultation for skin tightening with Morpheus 8 or any of our other innovative devices.

How many treatments are needed to see results?

Optimal results may be achieved in as little as one treatment or through a series of treatments conducted over a period of several weeks. We can make an accurate estimate of treatment outcome by observing the condition of your skin, including texture, tone, and laxity, during your consultation.

When can I put make-up on after treatment?

Since patient downtime is minimal, makeup can be applied 1 to 2 days after the treatment. Patients should expect to see micro lesions a few days after treatment and slight redness for up to 1 week depending on treatment parameters.

Total skin rejuvenation anywhere on your body

Morpheus8-Body

Morpheus8 Body has the same capabilities as Morpheus but can target deeper into the tissue layers to reduce cellulite, crepey skin, dimpling skin, loose or sagging skin, stretch marks and body fat.

Differences between Morpheus8 and Morpheus8 Body

As with Morpheus8, Morpheus8 Body helps promote collagen and elastin production to restore and rejuvenate damaged tissue. However, Morpheus8 Body was designed to treat larger, full body areas efficiently and at unrivaled depth, up to 8mm depth, delivering bipolar radio frequency energy that treats multiple levels of body tissue at once.

Morpheus8 Body treats upper arms, stomach, thighs, knees, back including bra fat. Similar to miraDry, Morpheus8 can help treat Hyperhidrosis, an abnormal excessive sweating condition, particularly in the underarms, dramatically by reducing sweat production in a series of 3-4 treatments spaced one month apart.

Stretch marks can be improved by precisely targeting the damaged, underlying layers of the skin, encouraging the production of new cells. This increased collagen production results in smoother, more even skin, reducing the appearance of stretch marks.

What are the benefits of Morpheus8 Body?

  • Nonsurgical: Morpheus8 Body is considered non-invasive and requires no surgery, incisions or general anesthesia.
  • Short recovery time: The treatment typically requires little to no downtime.
  • Improved skin texture: Morpheus8 Body significantly improves the texture and tone of the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and promoting collagen production, all for firmer, smoother skin.
  • Customizable: The treatment is highly customizable and can be tailored to meet each patient’s needs and goals.
  • Safe and effective: Morpheus8 Body is a safe and effective treatment that can produce long lasting results with minimal risks.
  • Versatile: Morpheus8 Body can treat various cosmetic concerns, including loose or sagging skin, uneven skin texture, and stretch marks.
  • Minimal discomfort: While some patients experience mild discomfort during the treatment, it is generally well tolerated with a topical numbing cream.
  • Long lasting results: With proper skin care and maintenance, the effects of a Morpheus8 Body treatment can last for several months!

Look your best with a red carpet mini face lift!

FORMA logo-wide

Forma is a non-invasive, FDA approved skin and tissue remodeling treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) waves to stimulate collagen production and tighten skin. It's also known as a red carpet mini face lift.

This skin and tissue remodeling technology is equipped with a subdermal heating applicator. Radiofrequency travels via electrodes to deliver a non-invasive and pain-free treatment, and its controls allow the device to reach optimal temperatures. Forma effectively treats the forehead, upper and lower eyelids, nasolabial folds, jowls and neck.

What are the benefits of Forma?

  • Forma has a thermal temperature sensor built into the hand piece allowing clinicians to acquire skin temperature in real-time.
  • Forma provides unprecedented safety of RF delivery. The “cut off temperature” feature reduces RF energy automatically when the hand piece senses that the required skin temperature has been reached.
  • Clinical evidence suggests prolonged exposure to temperature above 40°C is advantageous for optimal clinical outcomes.
  • Safe on all skin types.

What can I expect from Forma?

While some improvement may be noticeable after one treatment, for best results, it’s generally recommended to have six consecutive sessions once a week. Because collagen buildup occurs slowly, you should continue to see improvements in your appearance for several weeks after each treatment.

Weekly sessions over a period of six weeks are recommended. However, the number of sessions varies from person to person, based on their skin concerns and requirements. If you have mild laxity, you may be treated in fewer sessions with more weeks between each treatment.

Unlike the surgical face lift this aesthetic treatment does not require any downtime. You would be surprised to know that this incredible aesthetic treatment takes only 30 minutes and, you can resume your daily activities immediately after this skin tightening treatment. However, you may experience some mild redness immediately after the procedure. It settles down quickly within a few hours.

This non-invasive aesthetic treatment offers long lasting results and is suitable for all skin types. Patients have reported that their skin feels smoother and more defined. They also notice a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Unlike surgical options, this aesthetic treatment is painless.
