Morpheus 8 is a cutting-edge facial lifting innovation that effectively reduces subdermal fat and can be customized to target various skin issues such as wrinkle reduction, smoothing of textured skin, tightening of sagging skin, and treatment of scars.

The best part? It’s a non-surgical solution. However, it’s crucial to understand the innovation’s pros and cons and determine its suitability for your needs before undergoing the procedure.

Morpheus8 – Get to Know the Latest Skin Lifting Innovation

Morpheus 8, created by InMode in the United States, is a cutting-edge technology that reduces wrinkles and lifts skin without surgery. It utilizes Fractional Microneedle RF radio energy to stimulate the skin layer with 24 coated pins. Its Multi-Layer Technology allows for the adjustment of pin depth from 1-4 millimeters to target individual skin issues such as uneven skin tone, wrinkles, sagging skin, and scars.

Moreover, Morpheus 8 has the ability to decrease the subcutaneous fat layer, resulting in its reduction. It has received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as the deepest fractional technology that can penetrate the skin, reaching the fat layer underneath. As a non-surgical skin lifting method, it is completely safe.

At Rattinan Medical Center, Morpheus 8 stands out for its precision and ability to deliver optimal results. Dr. Rattinan Treeratana, a skin and laser treatment expert with over 20 years of experience, has carefully analyzed and customized the machine’s operation to address specific individual concerns. You can rest assured that the service will yield satisfying outcomes from the very first visit.

The Operational Mechanism of Morpheus8

Morpheus 8 is capable of customizing the operational mode, energy output, and pin depth to match an individual’s skin condition. It employs bi-polar radio frequency delivered via coated pins to perform fractional skin treatments, which strengthen the skin in the targeted area by reorganizing the underlying tissues.

This versatile treatment utilizes Fractional technology and can be applied to multiple body regions, including the face, neck, chest, middle back, knees, elbows, and other folds, effectively addressing wrinkles, creases, and sagging. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with multiple skin conditions, such as facial and neck wrinkles, chubby cheeks, and excessive jowls.

To ensure safety and effectiveness, the handpiece is packed in a sterilized envelope using a gamma system (GAMMA sterilized) and is intended for single-use only. Once used, it will be promptly discarded.

This technology allows for the adjustment of energy values. Therefore, it is essential that a physician with expertise in the treatment area customizes the mode to suit each patient’s needs. This approach ensures optimal results that meet individual needs and are achieved with the highest efficiency.

The benefits of Morpheus 8 can be divided as follows:

• Stimulates the formation of collagen in the dermis layer, making the skin look younger and smoother naturally.
• Helps shrink the subcutaneous fat layer and make the face slimmer.
• Helps lift and tighten sagging skin.
• Stimulates the process of creating hyaluronic acid, which adds moisture to the skin, making it look plump and youthful.
• Helps reduce wrinkles on the skin.
• Helps heal scars, such as surgical scars and uneven skin.
• Adjusts skin color regularly and reduces skin pigment production.
• Helps solve the problems of large pores, acne scars, and rough skin.

What areas can Morpheus 8 treat?

It can be used at various points to address problem areas such as wrinkles and sagging. These problem areas may include the entire face, forehead, under the eyes, eyebrows, temples, cheeks, under the chin, neck, underarms, knees, and sagging abdomen.

Is Morpheus 8 painful?

A single shot of Morpheus Eight releases all 24 coated pins at once, penetrating the skin and retracting instantly in a fraction of a second. This process can cause little or no pain, depending on the individual, but some patients may feel a warm sensation or experience slight bumps on the skin. Additionally, we offer an anesthetic service prior to administering Morpheus Eight, which greatly reduces any potential discomfort.

What results can be achieved from Morpheus 8?

After undergoing a Morpheus 8 treatment, the skin will appear lifted, with the full extent of the results becoming visible after three months of treatment. These results can last for a period of 6 to 12 months.

What is the frequency of Morpheus 8 treatments required to achieve visible results?

Patients should undergo this treatment at least twice a year since the results are not permanent. However, patients can maintain the results in the long term and receive the service as frequently as recommended by their treating physician.

What are the possible side effects of Morpheus8?

After undergoing Morpheus 8 treatment, patients may experience the following side effects:

• Redness and swelling may occur, but typically subside within 24 hours.
• Flaky skin may develop, which can naturally shed within 1-2 weeks.
• It is important to follow the doctor’s instructions for post-treatment care.

Advantages of Morpheus8:

• Morpheus 8 is effective for addressing a range of skin concerns across all skin layers, including uneven texture and reduced fat layer thickness.
• The long-term results of Morpheus 8 treatment can minimize the need for frequent follow-up procedures and save on overall costs.
• Morpheus 8 offers adjustable modes to address specific skin issues, resulting in a personalized and effective treatment experience.
• The handpiece used in the Morpheus 8 procedure is designed for single use only and is disposed of after each treatment to ensure safety and hygiene.
• Morpheus 8 is a non-surgical procedure that does not require any recovery time.

Disadvantages of Morpheus8:

• The treatment cost for Morpheus 8 may be relatively higher compared to other lifting procedures due to the various adjustment modes and the use of a single-use firing handpiece.
• Due to the pin-piercing nature of Morpheus 8 to deliver heat energy, it is not recommended to perform other procedures such as Botox or filler injections on the same day.
• The lifting results are not permanent, but they can last for 6-12 months.
• The treatment should only be provided by a medical professional.

How are Ulthera, Thermage, and Morpheus 8 similar and different?

All three technologies aim to provide lifting, but while Morpheus 8 uses RF radio frequency technology like Thermage, it allows for the selection of the skin layer for energy emission, which is similar to Ultherapy.

Can Morpheus 8 Work with Other Procedures?

Combining Morpheus 8 with other procedures, such as facial injections with Botox, fillers, mesotherapy, or other procedures that use energy waves to lift the skin, is generally not recommended as it may reduce the effectiveness of either procedure.

On the other hand, Morpheus 8 can be safely used with stem cell injections for skin rejuvenation. This approach can help repair and heal the skin more effectively and quickly, utilizing the body’s own cells.
