Morpheus 8

Morpheus 8  treatment for wrinkles, loose skin, and acne scars | Los Angeles, Glendale Burbank, Pasadena.

Morpheus8 is a new popular treatment option in Los Angeles requested by women and men seeking to improve the appearance of their skin.  Morheus8 is a non-surgical treatment performed in the office.  Morpheus 8 treatments allow to  remodel the subdermal and adipose layers of the skin.  These treatments help improve skin changes related to aging ( such as wrinkles and loose skin), certain scars, small areas of fat excess,  and scars related to acne.

WHAT IS MORPHEUS8? Morpheus8  combines microneedling with fractionated radio frequency enervery (RF) to treat the skin.  Microneedles go in and out of the skin. As the microneedles enter the skin, they deliver fractionated RF to the subdermis and adipose layer promoting collagen (see images below). The collagen-stimulating  effect of microneedling and radiofrequency energy results in smoother and tighter skin. Treatment of  the deeper, fatty, layer below the dermis will allow to reduce the amount of fat in that layer.  Morpheus8 treatments are minimally invasive with almost no downtime.

WHAT AREAS  ARE TREATED WITH MORPHEUS8 ? Morpheus8 can be used on any area but is commonly used to treat the lower face,  neck, and abdomen.

Some of  the benefits of Morpheus treatment include:

  • Diminishes facial and neck wrinkles
  • Improves loose skin in the lower face (jowls) and neck
  • Decreases fat excess along the jawline or chin
  • Decreases the appearance of acne scars and some surgical scars
  • Decreases the appearance of facial pores and give it a smoother contour
  • Improve active acne.

 

IS MORPHEUS8 TREATMENT PAINFUL?  Morpheus8 treatments are well tolerated by most patients. We use a strong numbing cream to maximize comfort.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NEED TO SEE AN IMPROVEMENT? Improvements can be noticed after one treatment. However, it is recommended to undergo at least 3 treatments  4-6 weeks apart to see better treatment and improvement.   The results are most evident about 4 weeks after the treatment. Many Los Angeles patients request a maintenance treatment once a year to preserve the improvement and slow down skin aging.

HOW SOON AFTER TREATMENT CAN MAKEUP BE APPLIED? Makeup can be applied 1-2 days after each treatment.
