At Dynasty Dermatology, we provide a state-of-the-art skin-tightening solution known as Morpheus 8. As a top provider of cutting-edge cosmetic procedures, we know how important it is to give our customers the best treatments available. Morpheus 8 can help change your skin and give you a younger, glowing appearance.

What Is Morpheus 8? 

Morpheus 8 safely combines microneedling and radiofrequency energy to improve the tone and texture of your skin. This device is FDA-cleared as a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment to stimulate collagen and elastin production, which tightens the skin. Areas that can be treated include the face, neck, arms, and body:

• Jowls
• Enlarged pores
• Wrinkles, lines, and creases
• Active acne or acne scars
• Stretch marks
• Surgical scars
• Sun damage

As an in-office procedure performed by a physician, your skin can be tightened with minimal downtime and has less risk than surgery, with Morpheus 8 in Pasadena, CA. It is also color-blind, which means that it can provide benefits for all patients including patients with darker skin tones and all ethnicities of skin.

How Does Morpheus 8 Work?

Morpheus 8 uses micropins (microneedling) to create tiny puncture wounds in the dermis to stimulate collagen and elastin production, which results in the regeneration of the skin. 

Because the microneedling is delivered fractionally, normal skin is undisturbed, which also reduces the healing time.  

Morpheus 8 will begin to work after your very first session and continues to work for weeks afterward, as collagen is being stimulated. For maximal benefit, a minimum of 3 treatments are performed at 4-6 week intervals. Maxima improvement is seen at 3 months.

Is Microneedling With Radiofrequency Painful?

Since a board-certified dermatologist will be providing your treatment, you can have access to Morpheus 8 without the fear of intolerable discomfort. We can offer effective topical anesthetic cream and other MD-directed pain protocols that can be discussed during your consultation. 

Please let us know if you have any anxiety regarding possible pain leading up to the procedure so that we can adjust your protocol to include other advanced methods to minimize discomfort.

What Should I Expect After Treatment? 

Immediately after your treatment, your skin may appear pink with pinpoint marks, which can diminish over 1-2 days after treatment. Visible results can be seen within weeks after your treatment; however, it is important to remember that your skin will continue to grow and develop new collagen for up to 3 months.

How Many Treatments Will You Need?  

The number of treatments needed depends on each individual’s skin quality and texture. Optimally, each treatment would be spaced about 4-6 weeks apart, and the best results can be achieved after 3 treatment sessions. Like all skin treatments, the maintenance schedule depends upon your level of ongoing sun exposure, age, activity level, and genetic factors.

What Kind Of Post Procedure Care Is Required? 

Sun avoidance after the procedure is important until the skin is no longer red. Avoid direct sun exposure and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
