What Is Morpheus8 RF Microneedling?
Morpheus8 RF microneedling takes the benefits of traditional microneedling to the next level. Like a standard microneedling device, the Morpheus8 device has adjustable needles that create tiny punctures, also known as micro-injuries, in the skin at different depths. The difference between this device and others is that it also uses radiofrequency energy during the treatment to double the collagen-boosting benefits.
As the needles create micro-injuries in the skin, the device delivers radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers. The controlled, uniform radiofrequency heat causes a dermal collagen contraction while stimulating natural collagen production. As a result of the micro-injuries and combined fractional bipolar radiofrequency energy, the skin gets tighter and firmer, and patients will enjoy healthier, smoother, and younger-looking skin.
What Does It Treat?
We use this device to address and reverse the signs of aging primarily on the face, neck, and chest, but we can also use it to treat skin laxity on the body as needed. Primarily a skin tightening treatment, it can also reduce the appearance of acne scars, contour the face, reduce the signs of aging, including lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, shrink the pores, and promote a more uniform skin texture and tone.
What Are the Treatment Benefits?
FemiLift® is a vaginal rejuvenation device equipped with a CO2 laser system. During the treatment process, a sterile probe is inserted into the vagina and directs CO2 laser energy into the tissue to remodel existing collagen. It also causes an instant contraction in existing collagen and promotes a healthier and tighter vagina.

Frequently Asked Questions
Before we begin a Morpheus8 RF microneedling treatment, we apply a topical numbing cream to the skin to ensure patients remain comfortable during their sessions. After the skin is numb, we begin the treatment: a process patients describe as comfortable and virtually painless. Most feel slight pressure and warmth as the needles penetrate the skin and as the device delivers radiofrequency energy to heat the designated areas to increase natural collagen production.
As the technician performs the treatment, she’ll adjust the needle depth and amount of radiofrequency energy as needed to target your problem areas and ensure uniform treatment. Once it’s over, you’ll receive some aftercare instructions and can then resume your normal daily activities.
Your skin may appear slightly pink after your treatment, and you may experience some peeling in the days following your appointment. Peeling is a normal reaction, indicating that your skin is increasing cellular turnover rate and responding to the resurfacing process. If your skin does peel, you must let it do so naturally to avoid interfering with your results.

Some patients experience immediate skin tightening results after one treatment. The skin may appear tighter and firmer due to how the device remodels collagen in the dermal layers. However, the most visible results will become noticeable within a few weeks of the treatment process. It takes time for the body to produce collagen and elastin; as it does, you’ll see continuous improvements in your skin, and it will look and feel tighter, healthier, and younger.

After your treatment, you can resume most of your normal daily activities. However, your skin will be more sensitive for the first few days, so you must adjust certain activities and product regimens accordingly. You must avoid sun exposure as much as possible and wear quality sunscreen to protect your skin.
Additionally, you should avoid makeup application for at least six hours, if possible, and any anti-aging products like retinol, exfoliating acids, or products that could irritate your skin. We will provide product recommendations that you should use immediately following your treatment to benefit from your skin’s temporarily increased absorption rate and ensure that your skin remains hydrated and heals quickly.

Patients will benefit from just one treatment, but the best results come from at least three treatments with several weeks between each. This treatment plan allows for adequate collagen production to improve the skin and promote long-lasting results. Some patients may need more sessions to treat more advanced skin concerns.
