Is Morpheus8 better than Thermage for anti-aging and treating my whole face and neck?

Question

Hi Doctors :). I am looking to do a treatment for anti-aging. I am looking for a treatment that can tighten my skin, build collagen etc. I am aware that Morpheus8 and Thermage both can do this. Which technology is better? I hear Morpheus8 is better at producing a "lifting result". I'm looking to treat my whole face and neck. Merci

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.
