Morpheus8 RF Microneedling Face & Body

Non-invasive beauty treatments continue to gain popularity and are in high demand for the dramatic results they offer with little to no downtime, but no treatment is more asked for by name than Morpheus8. This super buzzed-about treatment, which works to firm loose skin on the face and body, has so many people obsessed with it—celebrities included—and for a good reason, too. 

For years, the beauty world has talked about microneedling's skin-boosting benefits, and adding RF to the mix amplifies the results tenfold. Treatments like Morpheus8 improve the skin by encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin to improve skin tone, texture, and tautness, setting a new standard for rejuvenating and contouring the skin and body.

WHAT IS MORPHEUS8?

InMode's Morpheus8 is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) microneedling treatment that tightens subcutaneous tissue with a combination of the two modalities. Unlike other RF microneedling treatments that may only scratch the surface, Morpheus8 can deliver heat up to eight millimeters deep to prompt tissue tightening for customizable results. 

Combining RF and microneedling allows patients to reap the skin-rejuvenating benefits of both technologies, ensuring better results than using one technology alone. Microneedling and RF, on their own, remodel the collagen and can enhance the skin's tone and texture, but pairing them gives the skin a tightening effect.

With the Morpheus8 treatment, tiny, thin needles prick the skin's surface to deliver radiofrequency energy while those needles stamp the skin and create a controlled micro-injury. These safe and controlled micro-injures stimulate collagen and elastin production, fundamental skin elements for firmness, tightness, and smoothness.

What makes Morpheus8 unique is its ability to penetrate the skin deeply and its "burst" mode, which allows multiple skin layers to be treated at once for optimal collagen production and firmer, tighter skin on the face and body. The FDA-cleared device is sometimes called microneedling on steroids because of the energy's depth and ability to customize the treatment depending on your desired results.

How Does Morpheus8 Work?

Morpheus8 combines RF energy with microneedling to remodel the underlying tissue and skin and produce new collagen. The result is firmer, more contoured skin on the face and body.

Forty thin microneedles sit on the Morpheus8 handpiece, which heats the tissue under the skin with RF energy. As the tips of the needles and energy heat up the skin, the chain of events in the collagen production department turns on. Then, as new collagen is created over the coming months, the skin begins to take on a tighter, firmer, more sculpted appearance. If stubborn pockets of fat were also targeted, they would disappear after a few months. Usually, a series of treatments are recommended to garner the best results.

What Are the Key Benefits?

Morpheus8 provides multiple skin and beauty benefits that fans of the treatment appreciate. The main advantages of the therapy include:

  • Delivering the deepest level of energy (up to eight millimeters on the body) to heat subdermal tissues

  • Smoothes the skin for less noticeable pores

  • Improves the appearance of acne scars and hyperpigmentation

  • Decreases the look of fine lines and wrinkles

  • A "snatched" jawline and a more contoured, sculpted face

  • Tighter, firmer skin that appears more lifted

  • Naturally-plumper looking skin

  • It helps fade stretch marks and mild cellulite

  • It can be used on the face, neck, eyelids, and body

  • Dual handpieces that allow for both small and large areas to be treated

  • Compatible with all skin tones since there's little risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

  • Customizable treatment

Since no two people have the same skin or concerns, Morpheus8 can be targeted to different depths to treat different levels and achieve unique outcomes. For example, when using Morpheus8 on the body, your provider can use higher settings and deeper levels to firm up loose skin on the stomach while tackling pockets of unwanted fat. And when treating the skin on the face, your provider can adjust the settings and levels to tighten the skin without causing unnecessary fat loss.

Almost no face or body part is off-limits with Morpheus8. The treatment is commonly performed to resurface the skin and remodel the deeper tissues, especially on the face and neck, and effectively treat mild jowls, firming the jawline and smooth under the eyes and around the mouth. It also works its magic on the abdomen, buttocks, chest, arms, and above the knees. Morpheus8 can be performed as a standalone treatment or coupled with other procedures or to fine-tune surgical outcomes like facelifts and liposuction to help improve the quality of the skin, which surgery does not address.

There may be some social downtime with Morpheus8 as the skin recovers from the micro-injuries. On average, you may experience one to three days of social downtime. Even though Morpheus8 is a fractional treatment that leaves a portion of the skin intact to cut down on healing time, some people may look a little red or swollen following the treatment. 

Who Is the Ideal Candidate?

Morpheus8 can benefit almost anyone and all skin types and tones, even darker skin, since the treatment addresses a wide range of skin and body concerns. Anyone concerned with their skin's texture and wishes to firm it, improve acne scars, smooth wrinkles, and other signs of aging may want to consider Morpheus8.

Even if your skin boasts signs of sun damage or dark spots, you can brighten and improve the skin so it is more evenly toned post-treatment.

Ideal candidates for Morpheus8 are healthy, do not smoke, are not pregnant, display signs of mild aging, and have no significant medical conditions. To determine if Morpheus8 is right for you, schedule a consultation today!

What To Expect During Treatment

Before the treatment starts, the skin will first be cleaned and prepped, and topical numbing cream will be applied to the skin (it may sit on the skin for up to an hour to fully penetrate) and then removed. For some patients, Pro-Nox gas may also help make Morpheus8 more comfortable.

As long as you are well-numbed, you shouldn't feel anything other than a little pricking sensation and warmth, and most people don't report feeling much pain, if any. Different settings can make the treatment more uncomfortable, so discuss the settings and what other anesthetics may be needed to make the procedure tolerable.

Then, the Morpheus8 handpiece is gently stamped on the skin so that the needles penetrate the skin to deliver the RF energy and make micro-injuries. Your provider will perform several passes depending on the area and your goals. The treatment takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treated area.

Post-procedure, the skin will be red with tiny dots, scabs, or pinpoint pricks lasting for about three days but usually covered with makeup if necessary. At most, you'll look like you have a sunburn for a day.

The RF heat from the treatment forces the tissue to contract, generating new collagen over the coming weeks post-treatment. After about one month, there may be some initial tightening that's noticeable and less fat in the treated area. Most people need three treatments every six weeks to achieve the results they're after. The final results are long-lasting, although some people opt for maintenance sessions to keep the skin nice and taut.

The Cost

We recommend a consultation to determine the cost of your Morpheus8 treatment since each treatment area is priced differently. We can discuss the treatment details with you to obtain your desired results.

Our Morpheus8 treatments are customized to meet your needs, so the cost will vary depending on the area you wish to treat, its size, and the number of sessions needed. We can also create a package exclusive to your needs and provide a more exact price for the treatment during consultation.

Areas of Treatment

DIMorpheus8 can be used on various parts of the face and body where loose skin, wrinkles, fine lines, stretch marks, or other concerns exist. The most common areas of treatment are:

  • Lower face

  • Neck

  • Under the eyes

  • Around the mouth

  • Areas with acne scarring

  • Abdomen

  • Butt

  • Thighs

  • Bra roll

  • Stretch marks on the body

  • Loose skin on the body

Is Morpheus8 Permanent?

Remodeling the skin and creating new collagen yields long-lasting results. However, aging doesn't stop just because you had a treatment, so the skin will continue to age naturally, and collagen breakdown will persist.

Even though Morpheus8 can help tighten the skin, the results are not the same or have the same permanence as surgery. With Morpheus8, you'll enjoy the effects of tighter, smoother, more youthful-looking skin for quite some time. And the earlier you undergo the treatment, the better the results and the longer you can benefit from them.

FAQ

  • Since Morpheus8 is a downtime-free procedure, you won't need much time off from your regular schedule. The skin may be red, swollen, and itchy for a day, but you can return to work and everyday activities the day after treatment.

  • You may start to see changes to your skin in the first few days after treatment, like better skin tone and texture. The more noticeable improvement in the skin begins to surface about three weeks out and can continue for up to three months. Some patients say they see results only after completing the entire course of treatment, which is usually at least three monthly sessions.

  • The results of Morpheus8 and skin improvements can last at least one year, if not longer, especially if you take care of your skin and avoid unnecessary sun exposure. But since the skin and collagen will continue to age, it's essential to undergo yearly maintenance treatments to keep the collagen in production mode.

  • There are quite a lot of dos and don'ts after Morpheus8, including:

    Don't wear makeup for 24 to 48 hours

    Don't use harsh or abrasive skincare products, including exfoliators, acids, retinol, retinoids, or other actives.

    Don't pick at the skin or any scabs, bumps, or marks that appear

    Do use mild cleansers only

    Do keep the skin well hydrated

    Do avoid direct sun exposure
