How Does It Work?
How does Morpheus8 work?
Morpheus8 combines the approach used in micro-needling with radio-frequency treatment. It has 24 tiny pins which safely penetrate the skin and the fat underneath the skin. These pins release radio-frequency energy into the skin, heating it slightly. The controlled trauma of the needle penetration plus radio-frequency, triggers a healing response in the body. The pin insertion causes collagen and elastin to be released. And the heat from the radio-frequency causes a contraction of the skin. Together, this makes the skin appear plumper and tighter. Morpheus8 skin tightening is an effective way to reduce any appearance of sagging. It also reduces surface imperfections of the skin like fine lines, wrinkles and scarring.
The procedure
The 30-minute procedure is simple, safe and causes minimal discomfort and minimal downtime for patients. Numbing cream and local anaesthetic injection will be applied to the treatment area for additional comfort. After a small local anaesthetic, the doctor will apply the Morpheus 8 applicator. The 24 coated pins at the applicator will penetrate into the subdermal tissue, coagulating the fat and contracting connective tissue and fat to tighten and correct lines and wrinkles on the areas.

Recovery & Aftercare
Recovery & Aftercare
After treatment some mild swelling, redness or bruising are expected, but these effects typically disappear within a couple of days. Commonly skin may feel tight immediately after treatment. Visible results can be seen within a few days after the treatment, but typically after three weeks the most noticeable results appear as the process of collagen and elastin production to tighten the area naturally takes a few weeks to complete. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment.
Avoid touching and applying any cream or makeup on the treated areas for 12 hours. After that patients should moisturise the treatment area and avoid direct sun exposure. Make up can be applied 1 to 2 days after the treatment.
