Morpheus8: The Before and After of InMode's Transformative Technology
Introduction to Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge, fractional skin treatment that stimulates collagen production in the underlying layers of the dermis. Developed by InMode, a leader in the medical aesthetics industry, this minimally invasive procedure offers immediate and progressive results that can last for years. The technology combines micro-needling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to deliver noticeable skin tightening and rejuvenation. We wrote this to walk you through what Morpheus8 is, how it works, and what you can expect before and after the procedure.
How Does Morpheus8 Work?
The Morpheus8 device utilises a matrix of micro pins to renew deeper layers of the skin with almost negligible patient downtime. Radio-frequency energy heats the deep layers of the skin in a controlled way to revitalise collagen. This RF energy creates micro lesions that kickstart the body's natural healing process. As new collagen forms, the skin becomes tighter, smoother, and more radiant. Importantly, Morpheus8 can be used on almost any area of the body and face. This versatility sets it apart from other treatments.
Preparing for the Morpheus8 Treatment
Consultation
Before undergoing Morpheus8, it's essential to have a consult with Dr Nandini and Kate our Morpheus8 specialists. A skin assessment is carried out during this consultation, and your medical history is reviewed to ensure you are an appropriate candidate for the treatment. The team can answer any questions or concerns you may have at the time of your consult.
Pre-Treatment Care
To prepare for the procedure, patients are often advised to avoid sun exposure and certain medications that might increase the risk of bruising. Moisturising the skin and staying hydrated can also make the treatment more effective. Once again, please speak to Dr Nandini or Kate about the best products to use before and after the treatment.
The Morpheus8 Procedure
On the day of the procedure, the skin is cleansed, and a topical anaesthetic is applied to minimise discomfort. The Morpheus8 device is then used to treat the targeted areas. During the procedure, you might feel a slight warming sensation, which is generally well-tolerated by patients. The treatment can take from 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the area being treated.
What to Expect After the Procedure
Immediate Aftermath
After the treatment, you may experience redness, slight swelling, and a warm sensation in the treated areas. These are generally short-lived and subside within a few hours to a few days, (most of the time it subsides within a few hours).
Post-Treatment Care
It's crucial to follow the post-treatment guidelines provided by your healthcare provider. This often includes avoiding direct sun exposure and using a high-SPF sunscreen. You may also be advised to use a gentle cleanser and to avoid harsh skin products for a few days.
The Results
One of the most compelling aspects of Morpheus8 is its lasting results. Patients often notice improved skin texture and firmness even after a single treatment. These improvements continue to manifest over several weeks as collagen production ramps up. For optimal results, a series of treatments may be recommended.
