Morpheus8 is an advanced skin care treatment that corrects frustrating, bothersome signs of aging without the need to undergo surgery. Developed by InMode Aesthetics and known as “the world’s deepest microneedling technology,” Morpheus8 uses fractional radiofrequency (RF) to address or postpone the development of nasolabial folds, jowls, and other common age-related skin concerns. The treatment stimulates collagen production and promotes the appearance of youthful-looking skin.
Patients at Impressions Face + Body are treated to the latest advancements in aesthetic technology, and Morpheus8 is one of them. This treatment addresses various skin issues, including loose skin, acne scars, and uneven skin tone, just to name a few. It sculpts, contours, smooths, tightens, and stimulates collagen—no wonder Morpheus8 is among the most popular microneedling treatments at our cutting-edge clinic in Chicago. We invite you to learn more about this treatment if you’d like to transform your skin and boost your confidence.
The recovery time for Morpheus8 patients is minimal—you can resume most of your normal activities within 2 to 3 days following this non-surgical procedure as long as you are comfortable doing so. If you experience side effects, they should be mild and resolve within a few days.
Closely following these Morpheus8 aftercare tips provided by the Impressions team will accelerate your recovery time. Over the next 2 to 3 weeks, you should notice significant improvements: your skin will feel smoother and firmer, and you’ll look refreshed. As your skin produces collagen, you’ll continue to experience the benefits of this innovative treatment; for most patients, it takes about 3 to 6 months for the full effects to be achieved.
A final consultation with your provider will take place to determine the most effective plan for post-procedure care.
As with any treatment, there are risks and side effects you'll need to be aware of. The most common side effects of Morpheus8 include redness, itching, burning, swelling, bruising, and localized tenderness.
Morpheus8 creates microscopic wounds across the surface of your skin. That being said, your skin becomes more vulnerable to irritation, infection, and even hyperpigmentation. Morpheus8 aftercare involves paying attention to your side effects, if any. On the rare occasion that you experience side effects that linger or suggest signs of infection, please contact us or your healthcare provider right away so we can provide the personalized guidance you need.
The Morpheus8 treatment leads to dramatic and impressive results, and by following the guidelines we’ve compiled in this post, you’ll be well on your way to flaunting your refreshed skin in social and professional settings.
