About Morpheus8
The MedSpa staff utilize an exceptional approach that produces gorgeous results for our patients using a treatment known as radiofrequency (RF) microneedling with the innovative technology known as Morpheus8. RF microneedling remedies, like Morpheus8, have been around for a number of years and are popular in the cosmetic industry for skin tightening and cellulite reduction. This particular type of treatment uses targeted heat to stimulate the production of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin to reveal a tighter, smoother surface. This technique can be combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or platelet-rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) to maximize the outcomes. At the MedSpa at LPSI, we frequently incorporate this new advancement into our patient's treatment plans to stimulate collagen, provide smoother, tighter skin, and achieve a luminous complexion.

Procedure Technique
Morpheus8 utilizes a handpiece (with small needles at the end) that is rolled carefully around the skin to puncture and create micro-injuries that "interrupt" the cells and stimulate the production of collagen. Some also refer to this technique as collagen induction therapy. The handheld Morpheus8 device, which emits radiofrequency energy, works by providing brief bursts of RF energy through an array of 25 sterilized, golden microneedles. The power is transmitted through the needles, which simultaneously punctures the skin and returns the electrodes into the skin. The RF energy warms at levels that offer cumulative and ongoing results. New skin grows as the skin heals, leaving the surface feeling and looking smoother, brighter, and more rejuvenated.
What to Expect
Morpheus8 RF microneedling treatments will take place in the MedSpa at LPSI office using a numbing solution to minimize any discomfort. During your procedure, the handpiece will slide across the desired treatment areas, repeating the technique until the desired outcome has been reached. You should anticipate tiny pinpoint scabs to become pronounced 24 – 72 hours post-treatment, which will naturally shed when the underlying micro-injury has healed. Outcomes become visible as the skin heals over a month following a Morpheus8 session. Optimal results generally require 3 – 4 treatments 3 – 4 weeks apart. We also offer Morpheus8 Prime specifically designed to treat the smaller more delicate areas such as underneath the eyes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I combine collagen induction therapy with other treatments?
Even though Morpheus8 can deliver great results by itself, you may be interested in combining surgical and nonsurgical body contouring procedures for the most comprehensive results. During your initial consultation, discuss your aesthetic goals with our team so that we can create a treatment plan that meets all of your wishes.
What are the benefits of Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 collagen induction therapy is safe and effective for most individuals and can be used on almost any area of the body. The RF microneedling technology delivers impressive results, reducing the appearance of cellulite, smoothing the skin, and improving the complexion.
Does Morpheus8 hurt?
In most cases, our team will cleanse and numb your skin (with topical anesthesia) before beginning your treatment. For this reason, many patients report little, if any, discomfort during their treatments. As a matter of fact, the benefits almost always outweigh the discomfort of the treatment, which keeps patients coming back for repeat sessions.
