How does Morpheus8 work?
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. Microneedling involves very tiny needles (about the size of acupuncture needles) that create “micro-injuries” to the skin, which stimulates the healing process by creating collagen, elastin, and new skin cells. It is a very effective process in itself, but the addition of radiofrequency energy provides even deeper reconstruction of the skin’s layers.
Morpheus8 can treat:
- Enlarged pores
- Acne and acne scarring
- Irregular skin tone and texture
- Sun damage
- Sagging skin
You may need a few sessions of Morpheus8, although some patients only need one treatment. As collagen renews and the skin rebuilds itself, you’ll start to see real results. These results are permanent although you may benefit from the occasional touch up. Each treatment will take about an hour or less, including the time it takes for a topical anesthetic to take effect. After the treatment you may have some bruising, swelling, and redness, and some tiny scabs. If you are uncomfortable you can take an over-the-counter pain medication. There is no downtime. You should avoid sun exposure immediately after. One should also avoid makeup for about 2 days after the treatment.
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to remove skin imperfections and dramatically tighten and improve skin. You can contact New Look Skin Center for more information on Morpheus8 or to schedule an appointment. Call (818) 662-5005 today!
