What is Morpheus8?
MORPHEUS8 is a fractional skin treatment that stimulates collagen production of the underlying layers of the dermis. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, the building blocks will reorganize themselves in a natural anti-aging process.
What areas can be treated?
Morpheus8 can be used in any area that can benefit from sub-dermal renewal. The most commonly treated areas include the lower face and neck. Areas of the face and body that exhibit wrinkles, discoloration, or acne scarring are suitable for treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
Depending on your Morpheus8 treatment regime you can expect to have between 1-3 sessions.
How quickly will I see results?
Visible results can be seen within a few days, but typically after three weeks, the most noticeable results appear. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment.
What is the benefit of fractionated energy?
Fractionated RF energy is a scientifically proven method to reduce wrinkles and rebuild collagen and fat. It is minimally invasive, using a matrix of micro pins to renew deeper layers of the skin with almost
no patient downtime.
Can anyone use morpheus8?
The benefit of Morpheus8’s color-blind technology is that it can be used on all skin types. The unique properties allow even darker tones to be treated.
What is the benefit of RF energy?
RF energy heats the deep layers of the skin in a controlled way to revitalize the collagen. The treatment will improve skin complexion and texture for a more radiant and youthful appearance.
Can this be used in combination with other treatments?
Yes, Morpheus8 can be used in the same treatment session or a few days after other treatments.
When kind of pre-treatment care is required?
To be on the safer side of minimising any bruising risks it would be best to avoid aspirin, anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, herbal supplements, vitamin E, and Fish Oil at least one week prior to your treatment day if permitted.
It is recommended any use of retinol products, topical antibiotics, exfoliants etc are avoided 48 hours before your Morpheus8 treatment.
We also recommend avoiding sun exposure or tanning (including tanning beds and self-tanning products) for a minimum of 24 hours before the treatment.
What kind of post-procedure care is required?
Once you’ve had your Morpheus8 treatment, our therapist recommend the following:
- Avoid direct sun exposure
- Wear SPF sunscreen on the treatment area everyday
- Avoid touching the treated area for the first 48 hours and after this period this ensure your hands are thoroughly clean if you do
- Keep the treatment area moisturised
- Make up can be applied 1-2 days after the treatment
- Ice packs or cool compresses can be used in the first day to help to reduce the skin from initially feeling hot and any swelling
