Would you suggest microneedling or HIFU? Does HIFU work?

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.

The best treatment really depends on the level of tightening desired as well as how much laxity is present. Morpheus8, which involves RF technology and microneedling is a great tool to improve overall skin tone and texture. You can also consider FaceTite and AccuTite to address skin laxity of the face and neck. AccuTite can be used for delicate areas as well, such as under the eyes. I encourage you to visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for an evaluation and to learn what may be best for your skin.
