Morpheus & Facetite: will this result in noticeable improvement in crepey neck skin? (Photo)

Hello CC. Thanks for your question. There are several procedures that we shy away from because they have questionable results and radio frequency is one of those. Microneedling is another. This device combines the two technologies, but we believe you will be disappointed with the result. Radio frequency simply does not have the capability to lift and tighten your skin the way surgery would. If your main concern is the loose skin under the chin, we would recommend going the surgical route rather than radio frequency. You will be disappointed.

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.

Best,
