Dr. Lanna Aesthetics, located in Marlboro, NJ, is proud to offer the revolutionary Morpheus8 skin tightening and rejuvenation treatment. 

This advanced procedure harnesses the power of radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deep layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production for smoother, firmer, more youthful-looking skin.

What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 is an FDA-cleared minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and improve the tone and texture of the skin. This advanced technology was developed by InMode, an industry leader in aesthetic devices.

Morpheus8 works by delivering targeted radiofrequency energy to the deep dermal layer of the skin through tiny insulated pins, while simultaneously cooling and protecting the outer layer of skin. 

This unique technology, known as Fractional Radiofrequency Microneedling, delivers heat through the dermis to stimulate new collagen growth. However, the epidermis remains protected and intact.

The "fractional" aspect of Morpheus8 refers to the fact that only a fraction of the skin is directly treated during each session. The untreated areas between the pins allow for rapid healing.

How Does Morpheus8 Tighten Skin?

Morpheus8 kickstarts the skin's natural rejuvenation process in several ways:

  • Collagen induction: The radiofrequency energy heats the dermal layer, which in turn stimulates fibroblasts. These are cells that produce collagen and elastin. Over time, new collagen production results in firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
  • Neocollagenesis: Morpheus8 not only stimulates existing collagen, but also triggers the formation of new collagen fibers in the deeper layers of the dermis. This thickens the skin for improved elasticity.
  • Subdermal adipose release: The heat and microneedling action causes a release of fatty tissues just beneath the dermis, resulting in contouring and tightening effects. This can reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
  • Dermal remodeling: Morpheus8 energy remodels existing collagen and elastin fibers that have lost their elasticity over time. The skin becomes smoother, with diminished wrinkles and crepey texture.

In essence, Morpheus8 kickstarts the regeneration process to renew the skin from within. Both collagen quality and quantity are improved for significant tightening and rejuvenation.

Benefits of Morpheus8

There are many aesthetic benefits associated with Morpheus8 skin tightening and rejuvenation. Some of the most noteworthy improvements include:

  • Smoother, firmer, more toned skin texture
  • A reduction in fine lines, wrinkles and crepey skin
  • Diminished appearance of acne scars and surgical scars

  • Improved skin laxity, including sagging jowls and neck
  • More defined jawline and chin

Morpheus8 is safe and effective for all skin types. It's a great option for those who want considerable tightening and rejuvenation without the extended downtime of surgery. Both women and men can benefit from this treatment.

What To Expect During Your Morpheus8 Session

Morpheus8 treatments are performed in-office at Dr. Lanna Aesthetics. Each session takes about 45 minutes to perform. Here's an overview of what to expect:

  • A topical numbing cream is applied to maximize your comfort.
  • The treatment area is cleansed and prepped. Sterile microneedle tips are selected based on your treatment area and objectives.
  • With Morpheus8, the practitioner can choose from three different depth settings, allowing for customized treatment.
  • The motorized microneedling device with RF energy is passed across the treatment area, delivering heat into the deeper layers of skin. You'll feel a prickly sensation.
  • Your provider may also incorporate the additional technologies of cryotherapy cooling or focused RF for enhanced effects.
  • After the treatment, soothing products are applied. Over the next 24 hours, skin may feel sunburned.
  • After numbing wears off, you may experience pinpoint "bee sting" sensations which usually subside within a few hours after treatment.
  • Most patients require 3-6 sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart for optimal Morpheus8 results. Maintenance may be recommended 1-2 times per year.

Morpheus8 Recovery Timeline

Morpheus8 incorporates advanced safety features to protect the outer layer of the skin during microneedling. This means there is very minimal downtime associated with this treatment. Here's what to expect:

  • Day of treatment: Skin will be red and flushed. Swelling is minimal. Some pinpoint bleeding may occur.
  • Days 1-3: Skin remains red and swollen. Tiny scabs form where the pins entered the skin. "Bee sting" sensations are common. Avoid sun exposure.
  • Days 3-7: Scabs start flaking off, revealing smoother and brighter skin underneath. Swelling subsides. Can return to work and apply makeup.
  • 1-2 weeks: Most surface effects have resolved. Can return to exercise and normal activities.
  • 1-3 months: Collagen production ramps up, leading to gradual tightening and skin improvements.

While you may see some instant skin-smoothing effects, the full results emerge over 3-6 months as collagen regenerates. Continued improvements can be seen up to one year following treatment completion.

Most patients find the Morpheus8recovery comfortable enough to resume regular activities in just a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions About Morpheus8

What is collagen induction therapy?

Collagen induction therapy is the process of stimulating new collagen production in the human skin. Morpheus8 does this by delivering radiofrequency energy to the dermal layer through microneedles, which induces tissue remodeling and new collagen synthesis.

How does radiofrequency work?

Morpheus8 uses a specialized radio frequency energy that gently heats the dermis to temperatures that stimulate neocollagenesis and collagen remodeling while avoiding damage to the epidermis. The radiofrequency causes micro injuries that signal the body to create new collagen.

Why is the subcutaneous tissue targeted?

Morpheus8 targets the subcutaneous tissue, which is the fat layer beneath the dermis. Heating this area causes contraction and tightening which can improve the appearance of sagging jowls and wrinkles. The epidermis remains protected throughout treatment.

Is there any risk of rhytidectomy lesions?

No, Morpheus8 does not carry any risks of rhytidectomy lesions, which are stretching injuries that can occur with surgical facelifts. The minimally invasive pins only create tiny fractional zones of injury, allowing rapid healing without complications.

How can I prevent sun damage after treatment?

Always apply broad spectrum SPF 30 or higher sunscreen after Morpheus8 to protect your skin. The treatment can make it more sensitive to UV damage temporarily. Avoid direct sun exposure until any redness has resolved.
