Morpheus8

Fractional Resurfacing for the face and body.

Morpheus8 combines radio-frequency energy with microneedling to remodel collagen and subdermal adipose tissue. The result is improved skin texture and appearance, with reduced irregularities. The skin looks smoother, fresher and tighter.

It is a non-invasive procedure carried out under topical or local anaesthesia for comfort which delivers RF energy to the skin much more effectively than other energy-based devices. Other RF, ultrasound and laser treatments are only able to deliver energy to the skin surface thus limiting their effectiveness.

By being able to target the deeper layers of the skin, Morpheus8 is able to remodel the dermis and subdermis for firmer, tighter skin. All our treatments are performed by our aesthetic Doctor, and as such we are able to tailor the treatment specifically to you.

Morpheus8 is safe for all skin types I to VI, active acne, and acne scarring, and skin that has lost it’s bounce and elasticity.

Indications.

Morpheus8 is indicated for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, pore size reduction, overall skin concerns on the face and body. By stimulating collagen production and targeting fat cells in the deeper layers of the skin, Morpheus8 is able to give the skin on the face, neck and body a more youthful and tight appearance.

Morpheus8 can also be used to help patients with cystic acne or acne scarring (both textural scars and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and erythema).

Common areas to treat with Morpheus8:

  • Jawline and submental area

  • Under eye bags

  • Nasolabial folds

  • Frown lines

  • Wrinkles and folds on the lower face and neck

  • Upper arms

  • Cellulite on the thighs, knees and buttocks

  • Abdomen - loose skin +/- surgical scarring

How is Morpheus8 different?

The Morpheus 8 handpiece has pins that vary from 0.5mm to as far as 4mm reach (up to 7mm for body treatments) under the skin surface to deliver the energy precisely and accurately at the depth where it is most effective and in the dose that will deliver the best results possible.

This allows us to target all levels of the skin and subdermal tissue:

  • Subdermal fat layers - where fat removal and skin tightening is desired

  • Subdermal - targeting the fibroseptal network (connective tissue) to achieve 3 dimensional contraction, lifting and tightening

  • Dermis - skin firming and collagen production and remodeling

  • Superficial dermis - fractional resurfacing for improving skin tone, sun damage and fine lines.

  • Extend your treatment to cover your neck (and chest if desired).

    The neck is often an area that shows signs of ageing and is difficult to treat.

    By performing Morpheus8 it can help tighten and firm the skin, address laxity and crepey skin, and treat fine lines and wrinkles. More resurfacing treatments can also help improve sun damage, redness and pigmentation.

 FAQs

  • Treatment usually takes around 90 minutes. This is in part due to the need for topical numbing cream that is applied for up to 45 minutes prior to the treatment itself.

    A full face treatment take approximately 20 minutes, with the stomach taking about 30 minutes and larger areas (such as the thighs and buttocks) taking around 40 minutes.

  • There is some minor discomfort associated with treatment, but very tolerable with the application of a strong, prescription numbing cream.

    Some people benefit from taking paracetamol +/- an anti-inflammatory prior to treatment - this will be discussed with you at your doctors consultation.

  • Expect some minor redness and swelling that can last 1-3 days following the treatment. In some cases you may experience itching, bruising, a grid pattern and/or small dark flecks on the skin that resemble ground pepper - these are known as MENDs and are due to the heated microneedles exiting the skin. These resolve on their own in 2-4 weeks.

    Make up can be worn 72 hours after the treatment if you wish.

  • There are stories and reports online of bad outcomes with Morpheus8 treatment, this is because this is a powerful treatment that has the ability to melt fat cells. If used by an inexperienced practitioner, the settings could be tailored incorrectly and result in volume loss in the face and worsening or loose skin.

    However, at Dr. Tranter Aesthetics we are fully trained in how to use this technology for the absolute best results and perform thorough consultations and treatment planning prior to your Morpheus8 appointment. This allows us to tailor the settings to you and your individual concerns.

  • The number of sessions is based on individual patient factors such as the degree of skin ageing present, your aesthetic goals and the concern we’re treating.

    For best results it’s usually recommended to have 3-4 treatments initially, with a maintenance treatment every 6-12 months.
