What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten skin, reduce wrinkles, and improve overall skin texture. It works by stimulating collagen and elastin production, making it a popular choice for anti-aging, skin tightening, and contouring.
FAQs
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
The number of Morpheus8 sessions needed can vary depending on the individual’s skin concerns and goals. Most see optimal results after 2 to 3 sessions spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. However, some may require more sessions for significant tightening or deeper skin issues.
How do I prepare for a Morpheus8 treatment?
- Discontinue using retinol or any exfoliating products about 3–5 days before the treatment to avoid irritation.
- Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning for about 2 weeks prior to your treatment, as this can increase the risk of skin irritation or complications.
- Drink plenty of water before your treatment to keep your skin well-hydrated.
- If possible, avoid taking blood thinners like aspirin or ibuprofen before treatment, as they can increase the risk of bruising.
What kind of post-procedure care is required?
- Avoid direct sun exposure for at least a week after the procedure, and always wear a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin.
- Gently cleanse the treated area with mild products for the first few days and avoid harsh scrubs.
- Keep the skin moisturized using a soothing, hydrating cream to help with healing.
- For 48 hours post-treatment, avoid hot showers, saunas, hot tubs, and intense exercise to prevent irritation or inflammation.
- You can apply makeup, but it’s best to wait at least 24–48 hours after the treatment to avoid clogging pores.
- If you experience any redness, swelling, or small scabs, avoid picking at your skin to prevent scarring.
