Our skin changes as we age and it's normal to start seeing wrinkles, laugh lines, frown lines and areas that are saggier than they used to be. Procedures such as facelifts and other invasive skin-tightening treatments can take a long time to heal afterwards.
Morpheus8 is a solution for saggy skin and wrinkles that is totally non-invasive. By using micro needling and radiofrequency, it targets problem areas and produces tighter, more supple and youthful skin.
As we age, the body's production of collagen slows. This natural process, combined with other aging factors and exposure to the sun as well as genetics can all contribute to the quality of one's skin. It's common for people's skin to lose elasticity over time due to these factors and particularly the slowed production of collagen.
Morpheus8 treatments involve rolling a device over the treatable area that uses microneedling to penetrate the skin. The body perceives this as an injury and gets the message that it needs to produce new collagen to heal the area. By using fractioned RF energy, Morpheus8 also heats the skin to 43 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, the old collagen begins to break down. Once the existing collagen is broken down, it's replaced by the new collagen the body produces due to the micro needling. This new collagen has tighter and stronger connective tissues that gives the skin a healthier and more youthful appearance. It tightens saggy pockets of skin, reduces fine lines and wrinkles and improves the appearance of scarring, including acne scarring and surgical scars.
What areas can Morpheus 8 treat?
Morpheus 8 can treat a number of problem areas where skin is sagging such as:
· Upper and lower eyelids
· Under the eyes
· Frown lines
· The mouth
· Cheeks
· Neck
· Arms
· Knees
· Abdomen
All of these areas can be effectively treated by Morpheus8 technology, firming up loose skin. Women who have loose skin after having a baby, people who have lost weight and now have saggy skin as a result, or those with visible signs of aging who want to firm up and tighten their skin to get a more uniform appearance can all benefit from Morpheus8's revolutionary treatments.
Who can get Morpheus8 treatments?
Ideal candidates for Morpheus 8 treatments are clients who want to improve the appearance of sagging skin in the treatable areas. In addition to treating sagging skin, Morpheus 8 is also an effective treatment for acne scars and post-surgical scars, improving the appearance of the scarred areas to make it more homogenous with the surrounding skin.
Is Morpheus8 safe?
Morpheus8 is a safe treatment with no side effects or downtime. Any risks associated with Morpheus8 treatments will be fully discussed with you by our trained technicians before scheduling your first treatment.
Is Morpheus8 painful?
Before treatment, your technician applies a numbing cream to the area that will be treated, so you shouldn't feel any pain during the treatment. Depending on the size of the area(s) you're treating, the session could take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. You don't need to plan for any downtime afterwards and can perform normal day to day tasks right away.
How many sessions of Morpheus8 will I need?
Every client has different needs and goals. If you're treating multiple areas, some areas may need a few treatments while others may only need one. Our technicians will do a full analysis to decide how many treatments you will need to reach your desired goals.
As Morpheus8 triggers a natural bodily response - the production of collagen - it's normal to see visible improvements within about a week and full results within about three months. That's because the collagen production will be ongoing until the body perceives that the area is fully healed.
