About

Morpheus8 has the advantage of targeting different depths and treating specific tissue levels. For example, at higher settings and deeper levels, the treatment can reduce unwanted fat, as long as your provider takes care to avoid too much volume loss.

This popular RF microneedling treatment is most commonly performed for skin resurfacing and deeper tissue remodeling on the face and neck. It can be especially effective for treating mild jowls, firming the jawline, and smoothing the under-eye area and around the mouth.

It can also be used on almost any other body area, including the abdomen, buttocks, chest, arms, or above the knees.

Treatment Overview

Who’s a good candidate for Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 treatments can benefit people of all skin types and tones, addressing a broad range of skin concerns. It excels at improving skin texture, firming mildly sagging skin, smoothing wrinkles, and minimizing other signs of aging. It’s also effective at improving the appearance of acne scars. People with sun damage and dark spots should also see clearer, brighter, more evenly toned skin post-treatment. Notably, Morpheus8 is suitable for people with olive or brown skin tones who might otherwise be at risk of hypo- or hyperpigmentation from other skin rejuvenation treatments.

Your provider can choose a needle type that’s safest for your skin tone and most appropriate for your treatment area. The 24-pin tip is most commonly used on the face and neck, while the smaller 12-pin Prime” tip is best for small, delicate areas, such as around the eyes and mouth. The 40-pin “Body” tip is used to treat larger areas, such as the abdomen and thighs.

Does Morpheus8 hurt?

The treatment should be tolerable with topical anesthesia to numb the treated area, but it can still be painful for some people. Before your treatment, ask your provider whether the settings will be high enough that you may need oral pain and anxiety medication, lidocaine injections, or Pro-Nox nitrous oxide (laughing gas) to help make it more tolerable. Some providers routinely offer local anesthesia, to ensure patient comfort. If you’re very concerned about your pain tolerance, you may want to consider trying a single treatment to be sure you can tolerate it before paying for more.

What happens during a Morpheus8 treatment?

Each treatment session takes 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treated area and your provider’s level of experience. Here’s what to expect.
Some areas may feel more sensitive than others. If it becomes very painful, your provider may be able to adjust the settings or pause to administer local anesthetic and/or pain medication.

How soon will you see
Morpheus8 results?

Some people begin to see improved skin tone and texture within a few days of their first treatment. Your full results should be apparent about three months after your final treatment, reflecting the new collagen and elastin development.

How long does Morpheus8 last?

Morpheus8 results can last for about a year or more, especially if you consistently use high-quality skin care products and regularly wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30+.

You’ll need annual maintenance treatments to re-stimulate the new collagen production and all its youthful benefits.

Is Morpheus8 safe? What are the side effects?

Morpheus8 is safe in the hands of an experienced provider, but it does have some common, temporary side effects.
If the redness doesn’t resolve on its own or becomes worse, your provider may prescribe prednisone or hydrocortisone cream to help calm it down.

Microneedling results are very technique-dependent, and the heat from the RF energy can increase the risk of potential damage. Morpheus8 can go wrong, and some RealSelf members have shared photos in their reviews of long-lasting orange-peel texture or grid marks on their skin. Burns and other heat-related injuries are very rare but possible if the treatment isn’t performed correctly.

To help avoid these types of side effects, take your time to find a highly experienced provider—ideally, a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who has years of experience with radiofrequency microneedling treatments, with happy patient reviews to back it up.
