A side effect of age is loss of collagen, a protein that is critical to skin structure. This loss results in looser, thinner skin, and wrinkles. Fortunately, this natural aspect of aging can be mitigated with advanced skin treatment technology like the variety of Morpheus8 treatments offered at Advanced Electrolysis & MedSpa.
What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a skincare solution that focuses on restoring and rebuilding the skin at a deep cellular level. It facilitates epidermal resurfacing and the fractional remodeling of subdermal adipose tissue. This allows for mitigation of the effects of aging as well as more cosmetic contouring.
How Does the Treatment Work?
Morpheus8 utilizes both microneedling and bipolar radiofrequency to stimulate the production of collagen and increase blood flow to targeted areas. A handheld device administers microneedles (thinner than human hair) into the skin at a specific depth and releases a uniform distribution of radiofrequency (RF) energy. Because the process creates micro wounds, the body’s immune response is triggered in a controlled manner, accelerating the growth of collagen and elastin.
Morpheus8 treatments also protects the skin’s top layer by using insulated needles and by focusing the treatment’s energy dispersal. The depth of treatment is dependent on the type of Morpheus8 procedure being used and the area being targeted. The results of the treatment are evident from the first appointment, but they continue to improve even months afterward. It is common for the most effective results to be present between three and six months after treatment as the body continues to produce more collagen. In this way, Morpheus8 is a perpetual skincare treatment.
Types of Morpheus8 Treatments
There are several different types of Morpheus8 treatments. Each is unique in its application and in the benefits it provides, so here we explore all five of the treatments we provide at Advanced Electrolysis. All of the treatments described below are FDA-approved and safe for the patients receiving them. Our Advanced Electrolysis team is here to help you find the right treatments for you and help you feel comfortable throughout the entire process.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is the standard Morpheus8 treatment. The process takes approximately one hour, during which one of our experts administers the RF energy through a device with 24-gauge thin gold plated micropins. In this way, the patient experiences dermal and subdermal remodeling, tightened skin, even skin tone, and can even minimize hair loss. Morpheus8 is ideal for areas such a face, jawline, neck, and décolleté.
Morpheus8 Resurfacing
The Morpheus8 Resurfacing process follows the same outline as the basic Morpheus8 treatment. It utilizes 24 thin gold plated micropins and lasts 60 minutes. The key difference is that the resurfacing process focuses on the superficial layer of the skin. The treatment improves the appearance of scarring and loose skin and wrinkles, yielding a more youthful aspect.
Morpheus8 Body
Following the basics of Morpheus8 treatment strategy, Morpheus8 Body takes things one step further by incorporating Burst Mode RF Vulcanization Technology. This innovation provides the option of multi-level treatment depths in a single cycle, so the treatment is more uniform, and treatment time and the discomfort experienced during the process is minimized. Morpheus8 Body provides deep subdermal adipose tissue remodeling over large tissue surface areas.
To do so, the treatment uses a large surface tip comprising a matrix of 40 fine gold-coated micropins. For a window between 45 minutes and two hours, the Advanced Electrolysis specialist uses the Morpheus8 body tool to disperse deep level bipolar RF energy in a single cycle broken into millisecond intervals. This inspires sub-nectronic heating and the coagulation and liquefaction of small pockets of fat. By simultaneously tightening sagging skin, the process also improves the texture and tone of skin in larger areas of the body like the thighs, abdomen, buttocks.
Morpheus8V
The ‘V’ in ‘Morpheus8V’ stands for vaginal rejuvenation. This specialized application of the Morpheus8 treatment is designed to restore women’s intimate health in a way that is noninvasive, eschewing other alternatives like surgery or medication. Morpheus8 applies microneedling and gentle heat to the vaginal tissues, significantly increasing the production of elastin and collagen. This produces beneficial effects such as remodeling and tightening vaginal tissue, reducing urinary incontinence, improving vaginal moisture, minimizing vaginal scarring, improving sensation, and enhancing overall vaginal wellness.
Morpheus8 Prime
Morpheus8 Prime is the Morpheus8 treatment geared toward the highest sensitivity. The process lasts only 30 minutes and uses 12 micropins—the thinnest and least invasive pin size. This makes it the perfect fit for the delicate skin of the face. With Morpheus8 Prime, the skin around the nose, chin, forehead, and even eyes and mouth can also experience revitalization.
