Morpheus8

This was my third treatment and I found it to be much more tolerable. About an hour prior to my appointment I used a 10.56 % lidocaine cream that I applied to my face. I then used Saran Wrap on my face where I cut out eye, nose and mouth holes crazy sounding I know. After the wrap was on I took my hair dryer and used the low setting to warm up my face. I didn’t just come up with this I saw it either on YouTube or online somewhere. This made it so much better. I can say that my skin after the second treatment really firmed up. I look quite young for 40 especially when I wear light makeup but I have a very nice plump and fitness to my skin. I do not have any Botox for wrinkles but I have had Botox for a slightly droopy eyelid and I actually think the skin above my eyes tightened up and It seems like I don’t need Botox for the droopy lid. I break out each time I have a treatment and I normally do not have acne. My skin is usually clear within two weeks. I had my first Morpheus8 treatment in January and had to put off my second treatment due to Covid so my results are from 3 treatments over an 8 month period. I will try to add final pics in the next few weeks.

This was my second Morpheus8 treatment. I had to move out the treatment due to Covid-19. Like the first treatment, the second treatment was very painful. This time I wised up and asked for breaks when I needed them. This helped a great deal. I’m 40 years old and feel I have nice skin and I’m trying to keep it firm and even toned. One factor seems to be what pre treatment comfort aids are offered at the facility providing treatment. The place I went to only offers numbing cream (which doesn’t seem strong enough) but it seems other places offer lidocaine injections and gas. The other office I was considering quoted me 3 treatments $4300 +$50 if I wanted gas. The place I chose was $1800 for 3 treatments. I’m not sure if higher prices correlate to more comfort because of the gas but I wasn’t willing to pay $4350 for this treatment. Fingers crossed or positive results.

I got the first of my three Morpheus8 treatments on 1/23. I have to say that for me this treatment was extremely painful. I've had IPL, fillers and this was by far the most painful. I know that a 5% lidocaine was used and I feel like something stronger should have been used. I had to ask to take breaks on multiple occasions. When I read on websites about the pain associated with Morpheus8 it mentions a warm feeling, I wish that was my experience. I felt like I had hot pokers in my skin. I did notice on the counter another numbing cream that was 23% lidocaine and I feel that should have been used. I am also breaking out and I've also had clear skin most of my adult life. I'm going to be patient and wait for my skin to heal.
