What is Morpheus8 Microneedling?
Morpheus8 is a fractional radiofrequency microneedling treatment that remodels and tightens the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production. This minimally invasive procedure penetrates deep into the skin and fat, reducing wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and sagging.
It is commonly used on the face and body for skin rejuvenation. Morpheus8 can also be combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy to enhance healing and maximize results.
Benefits of Morpheus8 Treatment
Morpheus8 combines the power of microneedling and radiofrequency (RF) energy to deliver unparalleled skin rejuvenation and contouring results. Here’s why it’s a preferred choice:
Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Improves Skin Tightness and Firmness
Reduces the Appearance of Scars and Stretch Marks
Non-Surgical Alternative to Facelifts
Enhances Natural Collagen Production
Treats Multiple Areas of the Body
Morpheus8 vs. Traditional Microneedling
Traditional microneedling boosts new collagen production by using tiny needles to pierce the skin. Your body then uses its collagen to heal these tiny channels.
Morpheus8 is similar to traditional microneedling, but it pairs with radiofrequency to enhance results. It’s the only device that can do so, and it has been proven to be more effective and powerful than microneedling alone. The radiofrequency (RF) energy generates heat through the skin to break down and stimulate the production of new collagen as well as elastin. It also coagulates fat and strengthens connective tissues
The Morpheus8 Treatment Process
When you come in for a Morpheus8 treatment, we will apply a numbing cream to the specified treatment area. Though the procedure causes minimal discomfort, this step ensures that you are comfortable throughout the 30-minute treatment.
Once the treatment area is prepped, our technician will apply the Morpheus8 applicator to the skin. It will typically take one to three passes to treat the area. With every pass, the applicator will penetrate the skin with 24 coated pins.
These pins go into the subdermal tissue to coagulate fat. It also contracts any connective tissues in the area to help firm and tighten up areas with sagging or wrinkles. After the procedure is completed, you can return home and resume normal activities!
Who Should Use Morpheus8?
There are a wide range of demographics who can benefit from Morpheus8 treatments. The procedure isn’t limited to one age group, however, we typically find that ideal patients are at a stage in life where they are just starting to notice signs of aging. These treatments can be used to slow down the development of saggy skin caused by a breakdown of skin elasticity.
We also have found that this treatment option is great for anyone who is looking to achieve more subtle anti-aging results. Unlike with plastic surgery, where results are instant, you can make more gradual improvements with Morpheus8.
Which Areas Can Be Treated with Morpheus8?
Most patients use Morpheus8 to target the area below their chin as well as their jowls and jawline. However, it can also be used to treat any loose skin on the stomach, legs, and arms. Morpheus8 has been shown to be effective in treating:
Acne Scars
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Melasma
Other Blemishes
Facial or Body Scars
Sun Damage
Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Nasal Labial Fold Lines
Stretch Marks
Uneven Skin Tone & Texture

FAQs About Morpheus8
What Should I Expect After a Morpheus8 Treatment?
Because of the nature of the treatment, patients may find that their skin is swollen or bruised. However, this is usually minimal in most cases. Some people may find that their skin feels tight after their procedure, but this should go away in just a few days. It’s also reported that some patients will have some skin flaking as the microneedle punctures heal. Post-treatment, it’s recommended to avoid excessive sun exposure and use a gentle moisturizer to aid recovery and support the healing process.
What Aftercare is Required Following Morpheus8 Microneedling?
The maximum amount of downtime after treatment is typically three to four days, but that depends on many different factors, including the treatment area. In most cases, patients are able to resume their normal daily activities within one to two days following the procedure. Ice packs can be applied to help reduce any redness, bruising, or swelling, and patients can wear makeup or apply most topical products after a brief recovery period.
How Long Will It Take to See Results from Morpheus8 Treatment?
The majority of patients will see improvements after their very first Morpheus8 Mircroneedling treatment! Although, it may take multiple sessions for patients to achieve the results they desire.
We typically recommend that you schedule at least three sessions. However, they should be spaced out about four to six weeks apart. You will continue to see improvements with every session, but it could take up to six weeks from the last treatment to see the final results.
How Long Do the Results Last?
The Morpheus8 Microneedling treatment has grown in popularity because it offers long-lasting results. Without any maintenance, most people can expect the treatment results to last one to three years, depending on skin type. However, the results can be extended if you continue to receive occasional maintenance treatments. Our team can help you determine the most effective treatment plan for your skin.
Is Morpheus8 Treatment Painful?
Morpheus8 is normally well-tolerated by most patients. A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure to lessen discomfort. Some patients may feel a mild warming sensation or slight pricking during treatment, but it is usually not painful.
Can I Combined Morpheus8 with Other Treatments?
Yes! Morpheus8 can be combined with other treatments like dermal fillers and neuromodulators for greater results. At Infinite Vitality, we can customize a treatment plan based on your needs.
How Many Sessions of Morpheus8 Do I Need?
The number of sessions depends on your goals. Most patients see results after one session. However, a series of 2-4 treatments spaced 4-8 weeks apart is often recommended for best results.
Is Morpheus8 Safe for All Skin Tones?
Yes, Morpheus8 is safe for all skin tones, including darker ones. Unlike some laser treatments, it lessens the risk of hyperpigmentation and other complications.
