Genius RF or Morpheus8 for skin smoothing and tightening in eye area, mouth and jowls?

Question

I'm looking for an accurate comparison of Genius RF vs Morpheus8 results. My dermatologist has both machines and I'm wondering which is better for specific issues. I'm a 50yo female and am hoping to get some overall skin smoothing (tone & texture) as well as tightening, especially around the eyes & mouth/jowl area. How does the RF strength compare between the two? Does one have more risks than the other?

Close-up photos would have been very helpful, especially because under-eye Hollows, smile folds, marionette lines and jowls along the jawline are best addressed with the use of robust HA fillers. 
As to which gizmo to use, whether it has catchy names like Morpheus , Genius  or "Venus Flytrap", you should be aware that the hard science to back up the use of these expensive, so-called light and energy-based devices lags well behind the heavy marketing hype and social media buzz to promote them. So, a healthy dose of "buyer beware" would be advised when considering these.kinds of often "here-today-gone-tomorrow" treatments. 
If your major problem is one of superficial texture and tone, then you might wish to explore the use of superficial peels, which have  a proven track record of several decades of safety and effectiveness to back up their use. 
Hope this helps and best of luck.
