How should one prepare for Morpheus8 treatment?

hello and thank you for your question! I always recommend stopping fish oil, vitamin E, herbal supplements and any aspirin type products for one week prior to your treatment as these all contribute to possible bruising. I also advise my patients to not drink any alcohol prior to treatment and up to 24 hours before for the same reasons. Arnica and Bromelain will help with bruising and swelling, among other things, so I recommend taking those for at least one week before treatment. There is no harm in using collagen peptides. Research has shown that bioactive collagen peptides may actually improve the wound healing process. I hope this helps and best of luck!

It is generally recommended to start Arnica one week prior to treatment. For exact recommendations, I suggest speaking with your rendering provider for custom recommendations. Healing and moisturizing post procedure skincare products such as are vital for a great result (see link below for my recommended post procedure products). Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi there!

I would recommend stopping herbal supplements and Omega 3 about a week prior if possible. You may have mild bleeding with the Morpheus8 treatment. However, bruising is less common. Arnica certainly helps with bruising and healing. Collagen peptides are marketed to help improve hair, skin, nails, joints and ligaments, and tendon health. I am not sure of their role in healing. However, I cannot find a contraindication to taking them that would negatively affect your Morpheus8 treatment. 

I hope this answers your questions.

Cheers from Dallas!
