As we age, our skin produces less collagen and elastin, which are important building blocks for firm, youthful-looking skin. Morpheus8 Body is a skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology to trigger collagen and elastin production, helping you to turn back the clock for a more confident you!
The Morpheus8 Body treatment can be used on the inner and outer thighs, above the knees, and on the abdomen to correct:
Men or women of all skin types who are beginning to notice signs of aging skin and are looking to combat these changes can often benefit from this treatment. However, be sure to let us know if you have used the acne medication isotretinoin in the past, or if you have a history of keloid scarring. If you are looking to take charge of your skin’s aging process and turn back the clock, contact our office today to schedule your consultation appointment! Our team will create an individualized treatment plan to help you achieve your anti-aging goals.
During your Morpheus8 Body treatment, topical numbing cream will first be applied to the treatment area to ensure your comfort. Then, the special handheld device is placed against the skin, allowing the microneedles to penetrate the subdermal layer, creating micro-wounds. By creating extremely small wounds in the skin, the body’s repair process is triggered which involves elastin and collagen production. Radiofrequency (RF) is simultaneously emitted into the dermal layer of skin, tightening the fat below. Treatment time may vary from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Following treatment, there is no downtime required, so you can feel free to return to your regular activities. Mild redness or swelling may last for about 3-4 days as the skin heals. Be sure to avoid touching or applying any type of creams or lotions to the treated areas for 12 hours after your session. We will provide you with specific aftercare instructions to help ensure you receive the beautiful results you desire.
Some people may notice results as soon as their first treatment session, though we recommend 3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart in order to see the best possible results. Once you have completed your recommended sessions, results will continue to improve for up to 3 months. Please do not hesitate to reach out to our office if you have any questions or concerns regarding your Morpheus8 Body treatment results.
