Morpheus + lip fillers on the same day?

Question

Can you have Morpheus8 done on your face and neck and get lip fillers on the same day?

Falguni Patel, MD, FACOG · Answer

Hi !
Every provider is different, but you are able to get lip filler and Morpheus done on the same day. Just be mindful that Morpheus may cause your face to swell and be irritated. Following lip fillers, you are also swollen and will have some bruising. As long as you can tolerate both healing processes then you can do both. We recommend a carboxy mask following morpheus, which helps to reduce redness, inflammation and essentially cuts the healing time in half.

You will be able to receive lip filler on the same day long as you are not receiving Morpheus8 in the lip area. If your Morpheus8 treatment is being done around the lips I would wait at least 2 days allowing your Morpheus8 treatment to heal before getting your lip filler.

Thanks Lunaaa24 for your question! Morpheus is not typically performed on the lips themselves where lip fillers are injected. It is mostly used to treat the surrounding regions, including the skin around the lips and the perioral lines, which are the vertical lines around the mouth. Therefore, the answer is yes, you may have both operations done on the same day if you don't have the time to go twice for them separately. However, you should get Morpheus Ignite/Burst done first, followed by lip filler that same day. 
But it's generally not recommended because both procedures can cause swelling and bruising. Combining them on the same day could lead to more severe and prolonged side effects and undergoing two procedures on the same day can be more uncomfortable and stressful for the patient.
To minimize risks and maximize results, it's usually best to space out these procedures wait 2-4 weeks after lip fillers to allows the filler to settle and integrate into the tissue before undergoing the heat treatment of Morpheus. Or wait 1-2 weeks after Morpheus to give the skin time to recover from the procedure before injecting fillers.
    In our office we provide Morpheus Ignite Burst which is the best, most updated version of Morpheus treatment platform. The advantages include faster, and more efficient treatment with very little pain and quickest recovery. This is due to advanced technology utilized in this version of device. Morever, we have  other rejuvenating procedures like RF Profound, CO2 Fractional Laser and Fractoras well as QuantumRF that give us the opportunity to individualize and personalize the best treatment option for our clients.Morpheus Ignite Burst for skin tightening.

Hi there! Yes you absolutely you can do them same day. Since we aren't doing Morpheus on the lips themselves, the upper boarder could be more sensitive. However, we don't treat prior because of the heat.

If you aren't needing to target upper lip (smokers lines,wrinkles), you can opt to avoid that area. Some patients late 20's-30's opt out of doing the upper lip in general. It's important to talk to your provider about your goals, expectations and budget.

Hello Lunaaa24! Thank you for your question. You absolutely can do a Morpheus on the same day as lip fillers. The Morpheus does not go over your lips at all, only near them. You are likely to be swollen from either procedure (people often swell a bit along with their redness after Morpheus), so just bear that in mind. Hope this helps!
