Dermatomyositis & Morpheus8

Question

I was gifted a Morpheus8 treatment. I have a rare autoimmune condition, Amyopathic Dermatomyositis (skin involvement only). Thanks to an infusion treatment, I have not flared for over 7 months and all other symptoms seem to be in remission, but I still do the infusions monthly. Is Morpheus8 safe for me?

Mahmood Siddique, DO · Answer

Thank you for sharing your situation with me. Given your history of Amyopathic Dermatomyositis and the treatments you're currently undergoing, it's crucial to approach this carefully.
Skin Sensitivity: We need to evaluate how your skin has been reacting to treatments and any residual effects from your condition.
Autoimmune Considerations: There is a possibility of an altered healing response due to your autoimmune status, so we should consider this when deciding on the treatment.
Medication Impact: Your monthly infusions might affect skin resilience and healing, so we’ll need to discuss how these could interact with the Morpheus8 procedure.
I recommend a thorough assessment before proceeding. If you’re interested, we can explore other options that might be more suitable for your skin condition
