Morpheus is a minimally invasive microneedling procedure combined with radiofrequency (RF) energy used to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, tighten skin, and treat scars. It stimulates collagen production by delivering controlled RF energy deep into the dermis through insulated microneedles.
Morpheus is recommended for individuals seeking:
● Skin rejuvenation
● Reduction of fine lines
● Acne scars
● Stretch marks
● Skin laxity
It is suitable for all skin types and can be performed as a standalone procedure or combined
with other aesthetic treatments.
● History of keloid or hypertrophic scarring
● Use of isotretinoin (Accutane) within the last 6 months
● Autoimmune diseases or conditions that affect healing
● Implanted electronic devices such as pacemakers or defibrillators
● Recent use of anticoagulant or blood-thinning medications
Common side effects include:
● Temporary redness
● Swelling
● Mild discomfort
● Minor bruising at the treatment site
These effects usually resolve within 10 to 15 days. Rarely, prolonged redness or pigmentation changes may occur, especially if post-treatment care is not followed properly.
Discomfort is generally mild. A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure to minimize pain. Most patients describe the sensation as a prickling or heat.
Initial results may be visible within a few days, but the most noticeable improvements appear after 3 to 4 weeks as collagen production increases and skin texture improve.
A series of 3 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, is typically recommended for optimal results. Maintenance sessions may be done once or twice a year depending on individual needs.
