Can Morpheus8 reduce the fat transferred to cheek area?

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.

It is difficult to offer a complete answer without at least a picture. Having said that, the 4mm depth setting on the Morpheus8 does penetrate deeply enough to cause some fat destruction. That could potentially safely be employed on the face, but it more appropriate for the rest of the body.

Yes, you could have Morpheus 8 done to debulk these areas. Settings would be based on clinical assessment. Morpheus 8 is typically done in a series of 3 treatments. With this type of special circumstance, I would do one treatment at a time and reassess you each month to see if subsequent treatments are necessary.
