Is Morpheus8 Anti-Ageing Treatment The Best?
There is a very good reason that Morpheus8 is popular among A-list celebrities: it’s a powerful treatment that can stimulate a natural transformation of the skin on your face and your body.
And it’s been proven to help with several skin conditions, including acne, on all types of skin tones.
But is it the ultimate anti-ageing treatment? Read this blog to find out more…
What Is Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a groundbreaking, patented, non-invasive treatment designed to help with anti-ageing.
The Morpheus8 device combines skin microneedling technology with radiofrequency therapy to stimulate natural collagen production, reduce fat tissue, and help resurface your skin.
Results have been known to transform your face and body areas by creating a smoother, contoured, and youthful appearance.
During your treatment, ultra-thin needles that emit radiofrequency energy are gently inserted into your skin to create a controlled and very minor injury, which, in turn, prompts collagen and elastin production.
Collagen and elastin are the two key proteins responsible for keeping your skin firm, tight, and smooth. They both naturally occur in your body, but as you age, the production begins to slow down, and this is when you are more likely to show common signs of ageing.
The Morpheus8 treatment stimulates the production of new collagen for a smoother, firmer, and brighter appearance of the skin.
Increasing your collagen levels can also add plumpness as well as tighten and rejuvenate your skin.
This popular treatment can help to reduce many different skin concerns on both your face and body, including the abdomen, legs, buttocks, arms, hands, jowls, chest and neck.
What Can It Treat?
Some of the most popular and effective treatment areas are:
Forehead
This treatment diminishes fine lines and wrinkles on the forehead, even working on those deep ‘11’ lines. You will have noticeably brighter and smoother skin with fewer lines, wrinkles, and blemishes apparent after each session.
Nasolabial Lines
Also known as smile or laughter lines, can be treated very effectively with the Morpheus8. The use of the Morpheus8 device helps to tighten the area and increase the production of collagen, reducing these lines significantly.
Turkey Neck & Jowls
This treatment can improve your facial contour by tightening and re-contouring the chin, jawline, and neck to reduce jowls and submental fat or double chins.
Is Morpheus8 Painful?
This stamp method used for Morpheus8 might sound uncomfortable, but before your treatment, a local anaesthetic cream will be applied to cleansed skin about 30 to 45 minutes before the treatment starts. This will minimise any discomfort during your treatment, and you should be quite comfortable.
During the treatment, you might experience some tingling and soreness, but this is managed very well with the use of the anaesthetic.
Redness and swelling around the treatment area are common in the first few days, so you might want to take a little time to relax at home, but you can continue with daily activities as normal.
Tiny scabs might form, but as they’re usually very small they will heal very quickly so long as you leave them alone. It might feel tempting, but DO NOT PICK!!
Keep your treatment area well moisturised and avoid direct sun, as your skin will be delicate during those first few days.
While your skin is healing, you should avoid make-up, excessive sweating and touching. This is to give your skin the chance to heal, and it’s during this healing process that your body will increase collagen production and start providing you with younger-looking skin.
What Else Can It Do?
This treatment is not just for anti-ageing; it can also be used to reduce acne and any acne scarring. It targets and treats acne-prone skin by using the radiofrequency emitted to minimise oil production and kill bacteria that cause breakouts and blemishes on your skin.
You will experience smoother skin, too, as it helps to resurface treatment areas, improving the uneven texture of the skin, open pores and scar tissue. It has been used to treat various skin conditions, including stretch marks, acne scars, loose skin and wrinkles, to achieve a youthful and healthy appearance.
It’s not just great on your face. Morpheus8 can be used on the skin anywhere on your body, including the neck, chest, abdomen, bottom, thighs, hands and more, to achieve skin rejuvenation.
Body treatments with Morpheus8 typically address stretch marks, scars, wrinkles, and skin laxity. Our patients have had this treatment to lift and shape buttocks, and also tone the tummy area.
What Anti-Ageing Alternatives Are There?
There are other anti-ageing treatments available, and the ones mentioned below are all non-invasive and require little to no downtime, just like Morpheus8.
Exilis
Exilis Skin Tightening is a multi-award-winning skin tightening and fat reduction treatment clinically proven to remove stubborn fat from the body. The treatment uses radio frequency, emitted through an FDA-approved device, to gently heat the dermis (the tough middle layer of skin in your body).
The procedure stimulates new collagen growth deep within the dermal layer – it’s collagen that stops your skin from sagging.
Anti-Ageing Injections
Anti-ageing injections such as Botox are also available.
‘Injectables’ can be used for anti-ageing as they smooth fine lines and wrinkles. These injections use a toxin to prevent a muscle from moving for a limited time. The injections are often used to smooth wrinkles on the face, but some patients prefer treatments that allow greater facial expressions.
Thread lift
A thread lift is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment designed to give your face a more youthful appearance.
It uses medical-grade absorbable sutures to restore structure to sagging skin and is very effective at contouring. A thread lift is a fantastic alternative to a surgical facelift.
The threads are safely inserted underneath the skin and then tightened and pulled back, re-suspending areas of your skin suffering from laxity. The thread lift results in your skin looking rejuvenated and smooth.
Vampire Facelift
A Vampire Facelift stimulates natural collagen and elastin production in your skin through a combination of microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
This treatment is scientifically proven to reduce the signs of ageing by using plasma extracted from a sample of your blood to stimulate your body’s collagen and elastin production.
In a Vampire Facelift, following the use of a microneedling device, your PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is applied all over the target area. The plasma delivers a high volume of growth factors that enhance the healing process, increasing skin elasticity, volume and smoothness.
There are many anti-ageing treatments out there, but the Morpheus8 is so popular because of its versatility and high success rate. If you are dreaming of younger-looking skin, then this may well be the right treatment for you.
