Curating a balanced skincare routine is a labour of love, a relaxing, self-care ritual for many people. However, there are certain skin imperfections that serums and moisturizers can’t target, highlighting the benefits of advanced skin therapies.
Enter Morpheus8, an innovative dual-action device that revitalizes aging skin, treats specific conditions, and helps you achieve a more sculpted and firmer appearance.
Morpheus8 combines microneedling technology with radiofrequency energy to effectively target surface-level concerns while simultaneously rejuvenating the underlying layers of skin.
Our dedicated team is here with you every step of the way to help transform your skin and boost your confidence!
Introducing Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is an innovative skin treatment designed to remodel and rejuvenate your skin by combining the benefits of microneedling and radiofrequency (RF) energy into one device. This helps stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and address specific skin concerns for a brighter, more glowing you!
Unlike traditional therapies, Morpheus8 can target deeper dermal layers, effectively addressing structural tissues beneath the skin. This method offers long-lasting results beyond surface-level improvements (although a balanced skincare routine can support your results).
Its versatility and precision are great for targeting a range of skin concerns, such as:
- Softening and reducing signs of aging, like fine lines and wrinkles.
- Tightening and firming loose skin to restore a youthful contour on the face or body.
- Reducing texture irregularities from acne scars.
- Improves uneven skin tone and discolouration.
- Smoothing the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating collagen production.
How Does Morpheus8 Work?
Morpheus8 combines two advanced technologies:
- Microneedling: Uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process triggers the body’s natural wound-healing response, encouraging collagen production, improving skin texture, and reducing scarring.
- Radiofrequency (RF) energy: Delivers gentle, controlled heat energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the deeper dermis for firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
This dual-action approach results in significant skin resurfacing, firming, and remodelling by reaching up to 4 millimeters into the skin, simultaneously treating superficial and deeper skin concerns.
With the benefits of both treatments, Morpheus8 offers a comprehensive approach by treating multiple skin layers in a single procedure.
Is Morpheus8 for Everyone?
This technology’s non-invasive nature is relatively gentle, FDA-approved, and safe for most skin types and tones. However, ideal candidates for Morpheus8 generally include:
- People with visible signs of aging, including lines, wrinkles, or skin laxity.
- Those wanting to improve acne scars, hyperpigmentation, or stretch marks.
- People seeking non-surgical skin rejuvenation alternatives.
No one person is the same. Our skin and bodies may not find suitability in every treatment. Similarly, Morpheus8 is not ideal for people with certain medical conditions or active skin infections.

The Benefits of Morpheus8 Therapy
Morpheus8’s dual-technology and comprehensive approach to targeting skin concerns is just part of what makes this treatment so wonderful. Here are some additional benefits of this therapy:
- Suitable for most skin types: Morpheus8’s customizable settings make it adaptable to diverse skin tones and sensitivities.
- Minimal downtime: The device’s non-invasive nature means there’s little to no downtime after your session. Most people return to their daily routine within 24 to 48 hours.
- Versatility: Morpheus8 works on the face, neck, abdomen, arms, and other areas, effectively addressing large and small target zones.
A Walkthrough of Your Morpheus8 Treatment
Although the Morpheus8 is non-invasive, relatively gentle, and quick, having some idea of what to expect from your treatment can make you feel more comfortable.
From start to finish, here’s what you can expect every step of the way.
Initial Consultation
No matter your treatment of interest, each visit with us begins with a personalized consultation with our laser technician. During this visit, they will discuss your aesthetic goals, assess your skin, and determine the right course of treatment.
We’ll outline any necessary skin prep you may have to follow in the days leading up to your session. Generally, this includes:
- Drink plenty of water.
- Avoid using products containing retinoids.
- Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning, and remember to wear your SPF.
- Avoid waxing, chemical peels, or other harsh cosmetic procedures that might disrupt the skin’s surface.
On treatment day, your skin will be cleansed thoroughly to remove any remaining dirt, oil, and debris for a fresh, smooth blank canvas.
During the Session
The instrument itself consists of a handheld device equipped with microneedles that deliver RF energy to targeted areas.
Depending on the areas treated, sessions typically last 30 to 60 minutes. This timeframe confirms each concern is meticulously targeted while safeguarding maximum care and results.
Post-Treatment Care
After your session, it’s normal to notice mild redness, swelling, or tiny micro-wounds, which take anywhere from a few hours to a few days to heal.
Follow your practitioner’s aftercare instructions to promote healing, such as:
- Avoid sun exposure and wear at least an SPF 30.
- Use gentle cleansers and hydrating moisturizers or serums.
- Drink plenty of water.
Within a few days of treatment, some improvements, such as firmer and smoother skin, may appear. However, the full extent of improvement typically appears after 4 to 8 weeks. This delay is because it takes time for your body’s stimulated collagen and elastin to rebuild and develop.
