In the hands of an experienced provider, Morpheus8 treatments have numerous benefits. They can:
- improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- firm and tighten mildly lax skin, including on the eyelids
- smooth skin texture
- reduce the appearance of large pores
- treat hyperpigmentation, acne, acne scarring, and rosacea
- help fade stretch marks
Morpheus8 has the advantage of targeting different depths and treating specific tissue levels. For example, at higher settings and deeper levels, the treatment can reduce unwanted fat, as long as your provider takes care to avoid too much volume loss.
This popular RF microneedling treatment is most commonly performed for skin resurfacing and deeper tissue remodeling on the face and neck. It can be especially effective for treating mild jowls, firming the jawline, and smoothing the under-eye area and around the mouth.
It can also be used on almost any other body area, including the abdomen, buttocks, chest, arms, or above the knees. Some providers even offer Morpheus8 V for vaginal rejuvenation, to give labia a more youthful appearance.
It also shows promise as a treatment option for mild cellulite, but this isn’t the go-to cellulite treatment for moderate to severe dimpling.
While it's an effective standalone treatment, Dr. Ho says it's especially beneficial when used in combination with other procedures. “Morpheus8 is one of my favorite add-on treatments for achieving even better outcomes from surgical procedures, such as a facelift or liposuction,” says Dr. Ho. He tells patients that it works like a powerful skin conditioner. A facelift alone will tighten the tissues, but the quality of the skin remains unchanged. “Adding Morpheus8 to a procedure like a facelift allows me to rejuvenate the skin by enhancing collagen production, resulting in a more complete transformation,” Dr. Ho explains. “This takes it to the next level, and patients really notice the difference.”
