Morpheus 8 is a powerful radiofrequency microneedling device which, in my opinion, gives minimal sustained results and potentially MAXIMAL permanent problems. Delivering heat deep into tissues (especially into fat) while simultaneously piercing the skin with needles leaves the possibility of tissue destruction that can’t be repaired. Scars do contract, that’s true, but how can you predict the type of scarring and contraction this will create? YOU CAN’T. Once fat is gone, it’s gone. You can’t visualize what’s happening under the skin like you can when tightening skin surgically. This is a procedure fraught with great risk and little reward (except $$$ for the operator who is often unskilled anyway- how terrifying is THAT?). Plastic surgeons tell me they can almost always tell who has had this done when they perform a facelift- and how telling is that? You have RF microneedling and STILL need a facelift! Those of you youngsters who see the first TINY sign of tissue laxity and are advised to do this are getting the worst advice ever. You older folks who do it to avoid a facelift- press STOP! Do some less invasive things. Don’t risk permanent scarring on the skin or under the skin. Just say no! #morpheus8 #morpheus8treatment #morpheus8face #morpheus8body #skintreatment #dermatologist #skintigheningtreatment #skintighening
