Have had two treatments - over 2 month time frame and see no improvement. It was so painful that I have not scheduled the final treatment. A numbing gel was applied 1 hour prior to the procedure. I can’t believe I was able to complete the treatment- I had to ask her to stop several times. I have a high tolerance for pain and was not expecting it to be so bad. To me this was so painful that I think IV sedation would be appropriate.

I’m sorry the treatment was painful. Just curious, did you pay $500 for the two treatments? Was this done at a Med Spa or a derm or? Thanks

I've had three treatments done and all three times they used a strong prescription strength numbing cream that I actually applied at home a full hour before my appointment and it worked amazing. I couldn't feel anything. There are definitely different types of numbing cream and I would put pressure on them to splurge on the expensive stuff that works so you can use your last treatment of your package. Your experience sounds awful.

May I am where you had it done? I had the same experience regarding pain.

Agree 100% it was so painful I had to stop even with a nerve block and a week later bruised so badly it looks like I was in an accident-bruising and road rash! Extremely painful!!

Have any of you ever experienced a painful shock during the Morpheus treatment? If you’ve ever accidentally gotten an electric shock from a socket, then you know the feeling. That’s exactly how it felt.
