What's the difference between Morpheus 8 vs Sylfirm X?

Question

What is the difference between these two procedures? I have been recomended each of these by two different dermatologists. Is one more superior than the other? When would you use one over the other?

Jack G. Bertolino, MD · Answer

Sylfirm is unique in that the needles are non insulated and the energy passes thru them in an equal, consistent fashion. The other technology places all the energy at the tip causing scarring and not giving equal distribution of energy. We can do much more with Sylfirm with respects to color, collagen, hyperpigmentation, melasma, hair restoration and acne. It's all about how the needles which are gold plated are engineered. Hope this is helpful. JB

Morpheus 8 uses RF microneedles to penetrate into the deeper skin and soft tissue. It is a class leader in tightening soft tissue and skin.

Hi Grey Hair Girl.
Both will do a nice job.  There are subtle differences, but, if you are trying to tighten your skin, both will do a nice job.
