Morpheus8 Destroyed my Skin

efkabiotech
I had a Morpheus8 treatment on my neck and cleavage mid Dec-2023. Before the treatment my skin was really soft and even (no pigmentation) - treatment was done more as a preventive measure rather actual treatment. I healed well from the treatment.
However, already 1 month post-treatment I started to be concerned because I still had chicken skin on treated areas along with some hyperpigmentation. I was told that skin needs time to re-build and my skin should become soft within next 3 months. I got 2 mild chemical peels followed by mesotherapy with polynucleotides to soften the skin and help in rebuilding/healing process (these additional treatments were done on my cost). Now, almost 4 months post-treatment I still have chicken skin on my neck and cleavage and even more hyperpigmentation. I'm terrified that Morpheus8 caused micro-scarring and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and it seems that there is nothing that can be done to correct it. Does anyone have similar experience and any idea what to do? I consider ablative CO2 laser but I'm scared at the same time - I don't want to worsen what I have already...

I am so sorry you are going through this!!! I am an esthetician and seems to me that had the settings to high. Was the treatment uncomfortable? I do think that the resurfacing would help! The chemical peels aren't strong enough sadly

Thank you for your response… I need to figure out what’s the best option now

I am so sorry youare going through that. I had Co2 ablative laser on my face, and thought, sure, I'll do my neck too. But I think it ruined my neck skin. Its much worse now. So I'd research carefully whether that will improve your neck skin.

I’m so sorry to hear that! Neck skin is indeed very delicate… Now I consider Tixel instead of CO2 laser

Did you have sun exposure after the treatment?
