The Morpheus8 Procedure
Morpheus8 treatments are performed at Esthetika Med Spa with either topical or local anesthetic. The procedure is performed using the following steps:
A topical numbing cream is applied to the area(s) to be treated before you come.
Dr. Joseph will offer local anesthetic, dilute lidocaine injections with a microneedles which enables Diana to use adequate radiofrequency energy to melt your fat and tighten your skin.
A handpiece with 24 gold coated microneedles is placed on your skin, and this technology allows the radiofrequency energy to be delivered precisely to different layers of your skin.
Facial and neck treatments typically deliver energy at depths between 1-4 millimeters, and abdomen treatments may go as deep as 8mm to melt unwanted fat.
You will look like you have a sunburn immediately after your facial Morpheus8 treatment, and normal social activities are typically resumed the same day with no post-treatment pain.
24-48 hours later you can apply fresh makeup and sunscreen.
Morpheus8 Results
You will notice that your face looks younger after your procedure. Total healing from your treatment is longer than a month, so we recommend treatment intervals be longer than 6 weeks. During that period, your skin's collagen tightens and you see unwanted fat melt away. Six weeks after your treatment, you will see your final results, and three treatments are necessary for achieving a final result.
Is Morpheus8 right for me?
If you are a man or woman over 35 with concerns about skin wrinkles, or excess fatty deposits under your skin, you may be a candidate. Morpheus8 allows us to treat all skin types - even if your skin is dark brown. You need to adhere to strict sun avoidance after your treatments. The best way for you to determine if you are candidates for Morpheus8 is to visit Diana at Esthetika Med Spa for a consultation.
Morpheus8 FAQ
How does Morpheus8 work?
Morpheus8 works by delivering fractionated radio frequency energy to heat your facial skin and underlying fat. This leads to neocollagenesis and fat melting for reduced wrinkles and a youthful appearance.
How many Morpheus8 treatments will I need?
The number of Morpheus8 treatments you may require is roughly 3-5. The number of treatments you will require for a desired result depends on what areas are being treated, the color of your skin, and the severity of your condition. When treating thin under eye tissues for tightening, sometimes, only 1 or 2 treatments are required for a permanent improvement.
Can all the areas of my face be treated with Morpheus8?
Yes! All areas of the face, neck, chest, and body with fine lines, wrinkles, scars and unwanted fat may be treated with Morpheus8.
How can I maximize my results?
Morpheus8 results can be maximized if patients use sunscreen and live a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise.
Can Morpheus8 be used to treat my double chin?
It depends. Morpheus8 is used to tighten facial skin and melt fat. You would be advised at your consultation if Morpheus8 would be right for your excess neck fat, or if you might need a procedure like neck liposuction along with Morpheus8.
What are the risks associated with Morpheus8?
One of the reasons we are thrilled to introduce Morpheus 8 to our practice is that serious complications and problems are exceedingly rare. Bruising is fairly common and fades quickly. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH is unwanted brown skin discoloration) is uncommon but may occur if too much energy is used or if you have sun exposure, or if you are a darker skin type. The risk of a burn is minimized by the use of local anesthetic which helps to protect the upper layers of your skin.
