Question

Hello ! I am noticing some skin laxity and a bit of jowls . I’m wondering if evoke or Morpheus would be more effective or what you recommend . Thanks

Hi! Thank you for your question regarding skin laxity, jowls, and the best treatment for those concerns. I believe you would get a great, tight and lifted result with Morpheus 8.

I suggest 3 sessions of Morpheus 8, 4-6 weeks apart. I hope this helps!

Jennifer R. Berman, MS, MD · Answer

Evoke uses radiofrequency heat to tighten, tone, and lift the skin on the face. Morpheus 8 uses micro needling with heat to do the same thing, however, this treatment penetrates deeper and requires local anesthesia. In my clinical opinion and experience, combining forma and/or Evoke together achieves optimal results in patients with mild to moderate facial skin laxity.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS - Account Suspended · Answer

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.
