Minimally invasive procedures like micro-needling have been around for many decades. They’ve stood the test of time because the results are impressive and there are almost too many benefits to count. But new technology has led to a procedure that’s a form of micro-needling, but better! It’s called Morpheus8 and if it’s not already a regular part of your beauty routine, you’ll want to make it one as soon as you learn more about it! Read on to see the key differences between Morpheus8 and micro-needling and get answers to frequently asked questions so you can see how Morpheus8 treatment will benefit you.

What are the benefits of Morpheus8?

The burning question everyone always wants answered right away is what the benefits of this treatment are. To answer the question properly, it’s essential to understand how Morpheus8 works. The treatment combines micro-needling and radiofrequency to resurface and stimulate collagen production. It targets much deeper layers of the skin than micro-needling alone, so people typically see more impressive results whether they’re receiving treatment on their face, abdomen, thighs, or another area.

Morpheus8 and acne

This treatment isn’t proven to help prevent or treat current acne. But it will help treat scarring and discoloration that already exist due to previous acne breakouts. Visible results are seen by some just a few days after the initial treatment and full results come for most within a few weeks!

Morpheus8 under eyes

Morpheus8 is recognized as the best beauty treatment for under-eye wrinkles. So, if taking care of this area in particular is a priority for you, then this treatment is one you’ll want to take under special consideration! 

Morpheus8 and hyperpigmentation

Collagen contains amino acids that help fade hyperpigmentation over time. Since Morpheus8 treatment helps boost collagen production, it’s been proven to help eliminate areas of hyperpigmented skin and improve the overall texture of the skin as well. 

Morpheus8 stretch marks

Morpheus8 is well known for helping to eliminate scarring. While stretch marks are a type of scarring, they’re slightly different from other types of scars. Most scars sit on top of the skin, making for easier removal. Stretch marks, on the other hand, can be described as being “in” the skin. They’re caused when collagen and elastin rupture. Because of this, depending on the severity of the scarring and the overall quality of the skin, the number of appointments needed and possible total removal of stretch marks can vary. 

Morpheus8 might not be able to eliminate your stretch marks completely but it can certainly help fade them and help bring a measure of your confidence back!

Morpheus8 skin tightening

Morpheus8 helps improve the appearance of wrinkles, cellulite, saggy jowls, and double chin by tightening the skin. Results from one treatment might be slightly noticeable but several treatment sessions may be needed in order to see the most impressive results. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Now you know that whether you want to tighten your skin, improve the appearance of stretch marks, eliminate acne scarring, have younger-looking under eyes, or anything in between, Morpheus8 is the treatment for you. But you likely still have a few lingering questions. Here are some answers to questions that people commonly have about the treatment.

Is Morpheus8 permanent?

This question can be tricky to answer. Depending on the specific treatment you receive with Morpheus8, results could be permanent. For example, if you get acne scars removed, this treatment would be permanent. The scars wouldn’t come back over time unless you had new breakouts that caused new scarring. However, if you get Morpheus8 to treat under-eye wrinkles, it is likely that without continued treatment, you would begin to see wrinkles begin to return in time. 

But there’s good news. Firstly, you can expect to see results lasting anywhere from 1-3 years, so even if they aren’t permanent, they are long-lasting. Secondly, since Morpheus8 is minimally invasive and doesn’t lead to a major disruption in your daily routine, it’s possible for you to get continual treatments and maintain consistent results over time if you wish to do so. 

How often should you get Morpheus8?

Your practitioner at NV Medical Aesthetics will recommend the optimal number of sessions for you. But they will also tailor your treatment times and frequency to help you obtain optimal results that will keep you feeling happy with how you look and feel. 

Can I get Morpheus8 and Botox at the same time?

Many people who seek Morpheus8 treatments also want to experience other treatments as well. We have good news! You can get Morpheus8 in the same treatment session as other treatments. Alternatively, you can wait a few days in between other treatments and Morpheus8. 

Is Morpehus8 like a facelift?

Facelifts are still a relatively popular beauty procedure because of the impressive results they achieve. However, since this is an invasive procedure, it requires a lengthy recovery time. People need to take time off of work to recuperate and need the ability to step away from their daily routine to take care of themselves and heal. 

Morpheus8 is unlike a facelift in this sense. Since it’s minimally invasive, downtime is minimal and makeup can be applied 1 to 2 days after treatment. Most people are able to jump right back into their normal routines. It is similar to a facelift when considering the results you can expect to see. While the results won’t be as dramatic, both treatments ultimately lead to a smoother, firmer, more youthful, facial appearance. 

What is Morpheus8 recovery like?

As mentioned above, downtime is usually minimal. Patients can expect to see microlesions and slight redness a few days after they receive treatment. Keeping the area moisturized is essential. Many people are drawn to this treatment because the recovery process is easy and allows them to transition back to their normal routine with ease!
