Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a microneedling + radiofrequency procedure that is minimally invasive. Morpheus8 treatments can dramatically improve your skin quality, smoothing away lines and creases to achieve a noticeable improvement in overall skin quality. The radiofrequency energy gently heats the underlying tissue beneath the skin and further stimulate collagen production. The warmth liquifies the fat cells so they are naturally metabolized and passed out of the body overtime. You will experience tighter, firmer, and better skin.
What to expect
-
The number of treatment sessions depends on the individual patient and treatment aggressiveness and may vary from 1-5 sessions. Treatments are typically repeated every 3-6 weeks. Prophylactic antibiotic treatment may be prescribed for 1-3 days post treatment
-
Tiny scabs may appear after 1-3 days and stay for several days following the treatment. The scabs should not be touched or scratched even if they itch and should be allowed to flake off naturally. Blisters are rare, but when they do occur, may be treated with a prescribed antibiotic ointment, or burn treatment cream as per provider's discretion. Prophylactic antiviral therapy should be continued for patients with a history of cold sores (Herpes Simplex) when treating around the mouth. Contact the provider if there is any indication of infection, excessive swelling, redness, undue pain, or any other unusual or untoward symptoms.
