What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 uses radiofrequency and microneedling to remodel the face, neck, and chest skin. The treatment delivers radiofrequency energy deep into the skin, which, along with the microneedles, generates heat and triggers the body’s natural healing process, which stimulates collagen production. The treatment works on all skin tones and skin types, and the Morpheus8 device can be adjusted to deliver the treatment that’s right for you and your needs.
How Morpheus8 Works to Rejuvenate Skin
Morpheus8 rejuvenates the skin by harnessing the power of two advanced technologies—radiofrequency (RF) energy and microneedling—to remodel tissue from the inside out. Tiny, fine needles penetrate the skin, creating micro-injuries that stimulate the body’s natural healing response and boost collagen and elastin production. Simultaneously, controlled RF energy delivers heat deep into the dermis, tightening skin and promoting long-term remodeling for smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking results.
This dual approach not only improves skin texture and elasticity but also enhances tone, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and restores volume. Because the energy targets deeper layers without damaging the surface, it’s safe and effective for all skin types and tones, offering natural-looking rejuvenation without surgery.

Morpheus Treatment

- Our Registered Nurse Practitioner, Dana Protomastro, will apply topical numbing cream to the treatment area to ensure your comfort.
- The Morpheus8 device will deliver radiofrequency energy and microneedles to the skin’s surface.
- Treatment can take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area and if you’re having multiple areas addressed.
Benefits of Morpheus8 Treatment
Morpheus8 offers transformative benefits that go beyond surface-level improvements. The treatment effectively reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin while improving tone and texture for a refreshed, lifted appearance. Patients often notice a smoother, tighter complexion within weeks as new collagen continues to rebuild over time.
Other benefits include improved elasticity, diminished acne scars and stretch marks, and reduced pigmentation irregularities such as dark spots or sun damage. Its versatility allows it to be used on the face, neck, and body, making it ideal for total rejuvenation. With minimal downtime, no incisions, and long-lasting collagen stimulation, Morpheus8 delivers noticeable, natural results for patients seeking non-surgical skin tightening.
Treatment Areas for Morpheus
- For Hyperhidrosis – Morpheus8 uses radiofrequency energy and microneedling to disrupt the function of the sweat glands, leading to less sweat production.
- For Acne – The radiofrequency energy used in Morpheus8 kills bacteria that can lead to acne breakouts. The heat also damages the oil glands in the skin, allowing for less oil production that would normally clog your pores and cause a breakout.
- For Acne Scars – Acne on its own can be stressful, but when acne leads to acne scars, it can be more permanent. Morpheus8 can stimulate collagen production and trigger the body’s natural healing process, completely erasing acne scars for good.
- For Facial Scars – Like acne scars, Morpheus8 can also address facial scars as well. By heating up the skin and kickstarting the body’s natural healing process, you can finally say goodbye to scars.
- For Neck Laxity – The neck is often the first place to show age, and the skin there can lose elasticity and become saggy. Morpheus8 stimulates collagen and elastin production in the skin, allowing it to smooth and tighten, giving your neck a more youthful appearance.
- For Skin Texture – Uneven and rough skin texture can occur for any number of reasons, but with the help of Morpheus8, you can finally have the smooth skin you’re looking for. The radiofrequency energy and the microneedling stimulate collagen production, allowing for rapid cell turnover and smoother skin.
- For Skin Tone – Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone can occur for any number of reasons, from genetics to excess sun exposure. Morpheus8 uses radiofrequency energy and microneedling to stimulate collagen production and kickstart cell turnover, leaving you with a flawless complexion.
- For Sagging Skin – Sagging skin can occur just about anywhere from the body to the face. Luckily, with Morpheus 8, you can tighten sagging skin. The radiofrequency energy targets the deeper tissues, tightening and smoothing the skin.
Recovery From Morpheus Treatment
Following the procedure, you can go about your normal daily activities immediately, though avoiding prolonged, direct sun exposure is recommended. There may be some slight swelling or bruising, but those effects will go away 1-3 days later as the skin heals. You will be able to apply makeup 1-2 days after treatment.
