Radiofrequency energy is all around us: Wi-Fi signals, TV waves, microwave ovens. Radiofrequency energy has the ability to create heat. When used in skin remodeling, the energy heats the deeper layers of skin, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin and promoting cellular turnover. Skin remodeling slows after the age of 20 along with reduction of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, proteins that maintain the skin‘s firmness and elasticity.
Morpheus8 combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with heat energy from radiofrequency. 24 coated needles in the handheld device penetrate the skin creating microchannels. These microchannels stimulate the healing process and the production of collagen and elastin. Adding radiofrequency energy, heat is delivered into the deeper dermal layers of skin. Targeting the deeper layers triggers the building blocks of the skin to reorganize, rebuilding the collagen structure.
Visible results are seen in just a few days following a Morpheus 8 treatment; the most noticeable results occur after 3 weeks, skin is smoother, softer. For optimal results, we recommend three treatments spaced 4 – 6 weeks apart. Full benefits from Morpheus8 continue for several months as collagen and elastin continue to be stimulated. Downtime is minimal; makeup can be applied 1 – 2 days after the treatment. There may be slight redness and/or micro lesions for up to one week following the treatment.
Morpheus8 provides radiant and beautiful contours for a smoother, naturally beautiful appearance. Schedule your treatment with Bre, Kari, or Teann, Maffi Skin Clinic’s licensed aestheticians.
