6 months after Morpheous8, left with hyperpigmentation and grid marks - What can I d to reduce their appearance? (photos)

"chicken skin" is a rare event, but happens in some people, I have had good luck treating it with retinol and sunscreen. Make sure to stay away from the sun as much as possible in those areas.

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

Morpheus should not cause long lasting gridmarks and hyperpigmentation when done correctly. I am suspe3cting that your settings were probably too high on the gridmarks areas. Unfortunately it is a waiting game at this point and may take 6 months or longer for them to go away.
