How does Morpheus8 work?
Fine needles enter defined tissue depths in a controlled way. Radiofrequency energy is delivered at those depths. In addition to the stimulus from the needles, this heats the tissue.
The appropriate depth, energy and number of passes depend on the area, tissue thickness, skin condition and treatment goal.
Possible goals
Skin firmness, uneven skin texture or certain scars may prompt a discussion about radiofrequency microneedling. Whether such a procedure is suitable can only be assessed for the specific skin change and intended application.
Morpheus8 or traditional microneedling?
Traditional microneedling provides a mainly mechanical stimulus. Morpheus8 adds radiofrequency energy and can reach different tissue depths depending on the attachment and settings used.
This does not automatically make Morpheus8 the better method. Traditional or cosmetic microneedling may be more suitable for more superficial skin goals or when a lower intensity is preferred.
Deeper is not automatically better
The face in particular contains fat compartments, nerves, blood vessels and other anatomical structures. An unnecessarily deep or high-energy treatment is therefore not a sign of quality.
Depth, energy and the number of passes are determined according to the skin and tissue. More energy or deeper needle penetration also brings additional risks.
Limitations
Morpheus8 is not a non-surgical facelift. For substantial excess skin or significantly sagging tissue, a surgical procedure may offer a more appropriate result.
A tightening treatment does not automatically compensate for lost volume either. In some cases, a different or combined approach may be appropriate.
Possible reactions and risks
In addition to redness, swelling and sensitivity, possible effects include pigmentation changes, burns, infections, scarring, changes in sensation or changes to subcutaneous tissue.
Before a decision is made, these risks are discussed in relation to your skin type, the area and the planned intensity.
Frequently asked questions
Early changes and skin reactions may become visible soon after treatment. Remodelling processes often develop over weeks and months. When the result can be assessed depends on your progress. A specific result at a fixed time cannot be guaranteed.
Morpheus8 combines needles with radiofrequency energy. Traditional microneedling works mainly through a mechanical stimulus.
No. Skin type, active skin conditions, pre-existing medical conditions, medication and other factors must be assessed beforehand.
Not as a general rule. Morpheus8 and fillers target different structures and goals.
