Morpheus8 Body is a powerful skin rejuvenation treatment that restores the skin using combined microneedling and radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production. During treatment, a special handheld device is placed against the skin, allowing the microneedles to penetrate the skin, creating micro-wounds. By creating extremely small wounds in the skin, the body’s repair process is triggered which involves elastin and collagen production. Radiofrequency (RF) is simultaneously emitted into the dermal layer of skin, tightening the fat below. The treatment is minimally invasive with no downtime, making it a great option for those with busy lifestyles. Morpheus8 Body is used for rejuvenation on the inner and outer thighs, above the knees, the abdomen, the buttocks and more. It can improve sagging or lax skin, stretch marks, crepey skin, and skin discolouration.

How Many Treatments Are Needed?
The number of treatments needed with Morpheus8 Body can vary depending on the individual and the specific concern being addressed. Typically, it is recommended to have a minimum of 3-6 sessions, spaced 6 weeks apart.
How Long Will The Results Last?
The longevity of the results of a Morpheus8 RF microneedling treatment can vary depending on a variety of factors such as the individual’s skin type, the severity of the condition being treated, and the patient’s overall health and lifestyle.
Typically, collagen and elastin production takes time, so results may not be immediately visible and will continue to improve over several months following the treatment. The results can last for several years, but it’s important to note that the longevity of the results can be affected by a number of factors such as the patient’s age, skin condition, diet, sun exposure, and overall health. To maintain the results, it is recommended to avoid sun exposure, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and use sunscreen. Some patients may choose to have occasional maintenance treatments to maintain the results.
What Can I Expect During This Treatment?
Morpheus8 treatment is typically not considered to be a painful procedure. Most patients report experiencing some discomfort during the procedure, but it is generally manageable. The treatment may involve the sensation of mild pressure, heat or vibration. To minimize discomfort, a topical anesthetic is applied to the treatment area before the procedure. Pain management programs are available and will be discussed in your initial consultation.
