Microneedling Radiofrequency treatment - Morpheus8

Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a safe and effective treatment option that utilises radiofrequency technology to give the face, neck, and body a youthful appearance. Morpheus8 is an ideal treatment option for patients who would like to improve their facial appearance without undergoing laser or surgical procedures. The Morpheus 8 microneedles can go deeper than any RF microneedling device on the market. It has been FDA approved as a treatment to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone and texture, and tighten areas of skin laxity on the face.

 

A Morpheus8 treatment is an outpatient procedure. Neither anaesthesia nor intravenous (IV) sedation is used because patients feel no significant discomfort during the procedure. The procedure is performed using the following steps:

 

Procedure

A topical numbing cream is applied to the area(s) of the face that the patient wishes to improve,

A device delivering radio frequency energy through micro-pins is used to deliver the RF energy within the skin surface,

The radio frequency device has tips with various depths. Dr. Senel selects the tips and pins to increase or decrease the amount of radiofrequency the patient’s skin receives. This customised treatment approach allows the specialist to provide patients with maximum results. Total procedure time is usually one hour, depending on the size of the skin area treated. Depending on your treatment regime, you can expect to have between 3 to 4 sessions. 

 

Recovery

Following their procedure, patients may return to normal daily activities. The minimal amount of swelling and bruising that is associated with the procedure is easily controlled using ice packs. Patients may feel that their face is a bit tight after their procedure. If present, this feeling will go away in a few days. Total recovery time for a Morpheus8 treatment can often be less than an hour.

 

Results

Patients will notice that their face looks much better after their procedure. Over the course of recovery, collagen tightens and patients see improvements in their facial appearance. Their face is lifted and volume is added to lax areas. Skin complexion also improves. Six short weeks after their procedure, patients will see their final results. A Morpheus8 treatment or series of treatments can make a patient look decidedly younger.
