Morpheus8 Treatment(s)
What is it?
Morpheus8 is a safe & effective, minimally invasive technology that combines microneedling, at various depths, with radiofrequency to reach the underlying layers of the skin. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin – the building blocks of tight, smooth skin!
What does it treat?
By combining microneedles with radiofrequency, the Morpheus8 contours and lifts for overall rejuvenation. It can help to reduce and treat active acne, fine lines/wrinkles, and contour the shape of your face & neck.
Who is it for?
The Morpheus8 treatment is safe to be used on various skin tones, types, and age ranges. It can also be used on darker complexions, sensitive skin, and/or on those who struggle with acne. All seeing great results!
Is there downtime?
There is minimal downtime after the treatment and results can be seen even after one treatment. Long-term results are best achieved after a recommended series of treatments. Your practitioner will create a treatment plan based on your goals and areas of concern .
How to prepare for your Morpheus8 visit:
If you have no underlying skin conditions or any other health concerns then 24-48 hours before your treatment avoid the following:
- Avoid drinking alcohol
- Avoid Advil or Ibuprofen
- Avoid garlic
- Avoid a high intake of salt
- Avoid high exposure to sun (sunburned skin cannot be treated)
- Avoid any type of products that will cause the skin to peel and or flake
Once you book your appointment you will be sent a Pre-Treatment handout with more details about how to prepare for your visit.
Treatment day:
On the day of your appointment:
- Please arrive with no make-up on your face and/or neck
- Please bring a baseball cap or hat to protect your face from the sun
- You will be required to arrive 1 hour before your treatment to apply topical numbing (bring a book!)
- You will be offered Tylenol to take before your treatment to reduce discomfort
Aftercare:
Downtime is very minimal. You will likely experience some redness on your face for the first 1-2 days. You may experience skin purging (acne breakouts) or skin peeling post treatment – this can be common and will improve over time.
For the first 48 hours it is recommended to keep your skin care routine very SIMPLE. We advise patients to use only warm water or a gentle cleanser for cleaning the skin for the first 48 hours, unless otherwise directed by your practitioner. Detailed post-treatment instructions will be provided to you following your visit.
