Morpheus8 in Beverly Hills
Morpheus8 is a world-class radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device that can be adjusted to penetrate deeper layers of this skin, stimulating natural collagen production to rejuvenate the skin from deep within.
At Sykes Plastic Surgery, our expert team performs Morpheus8 on clients who are looking to improve skin firmness and wrinkles and are seeking to enjoy a more youthful, supple appearance.
What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive treatment that enlists a combination of microneedling and RF energy to warm the deeper layers of your skin to promote collagen production—the important protein that keeps your skin firm and elastic.
Unlike more aggressive treatments, Morpheus8 doesn’t damage your skin’s surface. Instead, it works from within, stimulating your body’s natural healing processes to rejuvenate your skin over time.
How Does Morpheus8 Work?
The treatment uses microneedles that create micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production. Simultaneously, RF energy heats the deeper layers of the skin, enhancing collagen and elastin production.
The RF heat energy stimulates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen. As more collagen is produced, your skin becomes firmer and develops more elasticity over time, producing firmer, smoother skin.
The Morpheus8 Procedure
A typical Morpheus8 session is straightforward and comfortable:
- Your skin will be cleansed, and a topical anesthetic will be applied to minimize discomfort.
- Your provider will use a handheld device to deliver microneedling and RF energy to your skin.
- You’ll feel a warming sensation, but it shouldn’t be painful; Some describe it as a slight pinch.
- The treatment usually takes 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment area.
- After the treatment, you might experience mild redness and swelling, which typically fades within a few days.
