Choosing the right skin rejuvenation treatment can be a challenge. Each one offers different benefits and downsides. During your first visit, we will discuss your concerns and review your options to go over which one might be the best value for you. Morpheus8 is an advanced microneedling treatment that gives many people their desired results with many unique bonuses.
Microneedling is a popular skin rejuvenation treatment that works by creating microchannels in the skin at a precisely controlled depth. The skin around these channels immediately responds with healing factors and increased collagen production to repair them. Morpheus8 RF microneedling adds radiofrequency (RF) energy that heats the deep layers of skin to produce more dramatic results.
The average cost of a Morpheus8 treatment will vary, but they are often comparable to lasers with similar abilities. People may choose RF microneedling for many reasons, including:
The channels created by Morpheus8 stimulate cells called fibroblasts in your dermis to produce more collagen, leading to smoother, firmer skin. RF microneedling is one of the most effective collagen-generating treatments and was even referred to as “collagen induction therapy” in the past.
The healing process that microneedling triggers causes the deep layers of your skin to push healthy new cells to the surface to repair the micro-damage. As a result, your skin’s surface looks more even-toned, and spots of darker pigmentation fade.
Downtime after Morpheus8 treatment is minimal, with most people experiencing some redness and sensitivity for a day or two. You should avoid products such as scrubs and products with retinol or AHA/BHA acids for up to a week to prevent irritation. You can apply gentle makeup after the first day, allowing most people to return to their usual activities.
While you may need more than one Morpheus8 session to see your full results, many people see benefits after their first treatment. You may notice an improved glow within a week. However, new collagen formation happens gradually so that maximum levels will be achieved after about three months.
After your microneedling results develop, they can last a year or more before starting to fade. Most people will benefit from annual maintenance sessions, allowing them to maintain their smoothness and glow indefinitely. You can also prolong and boost your results with targeted skincare products.
Because light-based treatments like lasers make your skin very sun-sensitive, they are not always ideal for summer use, especially if you have outdoor plans. Microneedling has no such limitations, although you still need to wear sunscreen at all times.
