Does fibroblast/plasma work for skin tightening?

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.

Thank you for your question. I appreciate your skepticism with all the new technologies that come out each year. I have been performing the J-Plasma facial rejuvenation for 4 months now and I have to say that each patient has achieved dramatic results that exceed those of a CO2 resurfacing procedure. If you would like to seen another example, the first patient I treated (staff member) is posted on my RealSelf profile page.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.
