Microneedling has become a popular skin rejuvenation treatment. It’s simple and effective, harnessing your body’s natural healing abilities to revive your skin. At the same time, radiofrequency energy has also gained popularity for its skin-tightening benefits. Combining these two treatments created RF microneedling.
Now, RF microneedling is more powerful than ever, thanks to the advanced Morpheus8 technology by InMode. Morpheus8 offers higher intensity and more customization for better results.
Microneedling involves causing strategic micro-damage to the skin with several tiny needles, which causes the skin to clear away surface damage and triggers collagen production. Since collagen provides structure and support, it’s essential for firm, youthful skin.
Adding radiofrequency energy to microneedling increases the benefits. The microneedles allow the RF energy to penetrate deeper for collagen remodeling and contraction. This tightens the skin and enhances the healing response.
The advantage of Morpheus8 over other RF microneedling devices is its customizability. Depending on your needs, your provider can adjust the settings to target different tissue depths. Morpheus8 can penetrate deeper than other devices, up to 7mm, for those who want the most effective skin rejuvenation.
The first step is to schedule an in-person consultation with Dr. Lawton or one of our trusted providers at Tenley K Lawton M.D. in Newport Beach, CA. Simply fill out the form on this page and we will reach out to you promptly to schedule your appointment.
Because it can be adjusted to each person’s needs, Morpheus8 microneedling is ideal for a wide range of patients. Dr. Lawton offers Morpheus8 and Morpheus8 Body, providing skin rejuvenation for your face, abdomen, arms, and more. It can help improve several concerns, such as:
Morpheus8 is safe for most skin types and tones. Dr. Lawton or a member of her team will assess your skin, health, and goals to determine the best treatment for you and what settings to use.
Your Morpheus8 appointment at Dr. Lawton’s office may take an hour or more. First, we will clean and prep your skin, applying a topical numbing cream. This may take approximately 45 minutes to take effect.
When you’re ready, Dr. Lawton will expertly guide the Morpheus8 microneedling device over your skin. Depending on the size of the treatment area, this may take 15-30 minutes. The treatment is typically fast and involves minimal discomfort, though some areas may be more sensitive, and Morpheus8 Body treatments may take longer.
Morpheus8 RF microneedling improves your skin both inside and out. The healing process helps resurface the skin, clearing away damage to reveal a brighter, smoother complexion. Many patients see improved skin tone and texture within a few days of treatment.
Collagen production and remodeling occur deeper in the skin and take more time. You’ll see full results from Morpheus8 microneedling in about three months after your last treatment as your skin becomes firmer and smoother. Most patients see the best outcome from a series of three or more monthly treatments.
Once you achieve your desired results, you can expect them to last several months. High-quality skin care and protecting yourself from sun exposure can help prolong these results. We typically recommend yearly maintenance treatments to preserve your rejuvenated skin.
Your recovery experience after Morpheus8 will depend on your unique treatment, including the treatment area and intensity. Typically, patients take one to three days of social downtime. Your skin may be slightly red, itchy, and tender during this time.
We’ll advise you on aftercare for your personalized treatment. To minimize swelling, patients should avoid strenuous exercise and heat for at least 24 hours after Morpheus8. You will need to avoid sun exposure and use broad-spectrum sunscreen for a few weeks after treatment.
