Morpheus8 is revolutionising the world of non-surgical skin rejuvenation. This innovative treatment works to remodel your skin from within, targeting a range of concerns. Whether you’re looking to reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, or enhance overall skin tightness, Morpheus8 offers a solution tailored to your needs.
At STORY, we know how important it is to have all the details before committing to a treatment. That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive guide to Morpheus8, bringing all the essential information together in one place.
What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 uses a combination of microneedling and radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. Using 24 fine pins that gently penetrate the skin’s surface, the device delivers targeted RF energy, triggering a powerful healing response. This process boosts collagen and elastin production while contracting the skin for a firmer, plumper appearance. The result? Visibly smoother, tighter skin that lasts.
What concerns can Morpheus8 address?
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sagging skin
- Jowls
- Laugh lines
- Skin laxity
- Neck and chest lines
- Scarring
What are the benefits of Morpheus8
Morpehus8 has a number of exceptional benefits, the most notable being:
- Skin Tightening: The RF energy stimulates collagen production, resulting in firmer, tighter skin.
- Improved Texture: Morpheus8 smooths uneven skin and reduces the appearance of scars and stretch marks.
- Customisable Treatment: The depth and intensity can be adjusted to suit individual skin concerns, ensuring personalised results.
- Long-Lasting Results: Results can last up to a year, making this a worthwhile investment in your skin’s health and appearance.
What is the treatment process?
- Consultation: Before any treatment we require you to book a free in-depth consultation with one of our qualified professionals. This is an essential part of your treatment journey and it enables your expert practitioners to get to know you, your goals and provide personalised advice.
- Preparation: If you’re suitable and happy to proceed, a mild numbing agent is applied to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
- Treatment: Your highly skilled Level 7 qualified doctor or expert aestheticians will then begin treatment using the advanced inMode technology delivering RF energy through tiny microneedles, penetrating the skin at precise depths.
- Aftercare: Following treatment, your practitioner will provide you with detailed instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
How Often Should You Have Morpheus8?
For best results, we recommend a series of three treatments, spaced 6-8 weeks apart.
Preparing for Your Appointment
To ensure the best possible outcome:
- Avoid sun exposure and wear SPF 50 daily in the weeks leading up to your appointment.
- Discontinue use of active skincare ingredients like retinol or acids one week prior.
- Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol 24 hours before treatment.
Aftercare: what to expect
The good news is Morpheus8 has minimal downtime: Recovery can range from 2 days to 2 weeks, depending on individual skin conditions.
Good aftercare is crucial for achieving the best results, your practitioner will guide you through all the necessary steps in your consultation. We’re always only a call away if you have any further questions after your treatment.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Day of treatment: we advise to only use Clinisept to cleanse the treated area. Avoid touching or washing your face and make sure you change your pillowcases.
- Next day: We advise cleansing with Clinisept and then apply SPF 50 to your face. Avoid sun exposure, exercise, swimming, and hot environments such as saunas. You will be able to apply makeup within 1-2 days, your practitioner will provide guidance.
- First week after treatment: Avoid active skincare ingredients and continue regular SPF application.
Combining Morpheus8 with Other Treatments
Morpheus8 pairs exceptionally well with other skin-enhancing treatments such as Profhilo, which boosts hydration and elasticity. However, it is important to wait four weeks after your Morpheus8 session before undergoing Profhilo or other skin treatments.
At STORY Clinics, we see Morpheus8 as a foundational treatment, refining your skin’s texture and quality to create a flawless canvas for bespoke treatments, including our tailored injectable services.
