Could Morpheus 8 help repairing skin wrinkled by Hyaluronidase?

Question

I had Hyaluronidase to dissolve a one year old hyaluronic acid filler that was causing permanent edema under my left eye. Unfortunately the under eye skin is now thinned out and diffusely wrinkled. I’m 35 but the under eye area look like I’m 70. Could Morpheus 8 help restoring the wrinkled under eye are skin?

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 thing to do is stimulate as much collagen and elasticity in the skin as you can. This can be done through multiple modalities, Morpheus being one, that can help stimulate collagen and can improve the laxity of the skin. PRP injections would also be good to help strengthen and thicken the skin. It will take multiple treatments of multiple modalities over time to truly improve the texture of the skin where and laxity has decreased and lines have formed.
