My neck and my jaw have burns and grid needle marks after Morpheus8

ORIGINAL POST

Morpheus8

Pilyoc
I had Morpheus8 done on my face and neck plus submental and buccal fat removal once.
My neck and my jaw have burns and grid needle marks. bought a package of 3 treatments.

still red and swollen after 96 hours.
It is hard to sleep, it burns when I sweat . I have applied recommend creams and it is not helping. I sent the spa the pictures and they insist it is normal. They said that my skin is probably sensitive.
I think the incorrect setting was applied.
My chin is now more loose and shakes like jello.

I regret it so much.
I should’ve just had plastic surgery.

How are you doing? Did this ever clear up? I am 4 weeks out from my second treatment and still have grid marks. I was fine after my first treatment. I’m seriously starting to freak out. They want to do a third treatment ASAP to fix this grid marks but I feel like this is fighting fire with fire and seems crazy.

Thank you for asking. It did clear a lot but I still have marks. I am avoiding sun as much as I can and protecting skin with spf and hats.

Oh my gosh. I am at 52 hours post my first treatment and have burning and grid marks all over face and neck. Went to the medspa today and the doctor said I was just having a histamine reaction to the TNS Ceramide. After reading all these reviews, I don't believe that's the case. I think I've been burned!

I am so sorry to read, you are experiencing similar results.

here is what helped me
Do not rinse your face with any soap , what helped was applying silver miracles colloidal silver gel and getting in the shower and let the water run thru my face
Do not rub dry with towel just air dry
The Alastin nectar helps a lot put that at least once a day and also recommend the cell protection balm
while outside wear hats and apply spf every 2 hours . avoid the sun as much as possible to avoid hyperpigmentation
Hope you heal soon

Would you be willing to share a picture of your face now? I'm curious if your marks are obvious at all still? I still have swelling and grid marks. On day 4 praying the marks go away!!!

The loose chin/jiggling like jello is what I'm experiencing. I'm 2 days out from my first session. I paid for 3 but I don't think I can bear anymore. Did you skin ever tighten up? Are you happy with your results? I'm terrified.

Finally feeling better

Pilyoc
Finally at day 5 my skin burns less.
I was able to sleep better
the Alastin nectar cream , is helping my skin heal, now I just hope the grid mark clear soon.
I hope I can continue with treatment , because my upper face is ok . it was just the high setting to burn the fat on the neck.

I feel for you. How are you feeling now? Do you see any improvement in your skin (tightening?) I had an allergic reaction to cream used after CO2RE laser that caused boils all over my face and neck. It was horrible! In time, everything healed. I hope you are on your way to complete recovery,

OMG! It looks like whoever did this had no idea even how to use the device! This is horrific. I don't think I've ever seen it look that bad! I'm sorry this happened to you. I hope you get your money back.

How are you feeling now? I had Morpheus8 a week ago and my neck looks exactly like yours. Are these gone. This was my first treatment and need to complete three but I’m scared about the marks

Hello
I am so sorry to read you are experiencing the same results. :(
I am much better. but my neck and lower face have dark spots.
The Alastin Nectar helped a lot to heal my skin and also washing my face with silver miracles colloidal silver gel .
only wash you face in the shower and do not scrub. just let the water run thru your face .
try only washing your face at night and a serum and just put moisturizer and Spf in the morning .
Stay away from the sun.
I tried PCA pigment gel a week ago on the spots but my neck got very irritated again.
so I am trying to heal my skin barrier again.
And I am trying to find a good Dermatologist to help me :(

Yelp is scary with the reviews.

Hi I just had the morphoues8 I'm sorry to aggravate. As I read you were past it all in your comments, but my face and whole neck could not look more exactly like your reaction. Swelling day 1-2 day 3 subsided a lot and the bumps are everywhere like chicken skin. The texture is freaking me out and I'm so hopeful it will go away. Were you worried about them as much and did the subside? If so do you remember when, and did you skin atleast get 85% back to normal?
