Morpheus8 radiofrequency microneedling

Morpheus8 combines fine needles with radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, with the aim of stimulating collagen. Our practitioners use it on the face and body for texture, acne scarring and mild skin laxity.

All procedures carry risks and results vary. Read about recovery and risks below.

About Morpheus8

Numbing cream is applied first. The treatment can still be uncomfortable.

A course of usually three treatments, a few weeks apart, is recommended, and any improvement develops gradually over around three months.

Suitability

Who it may suit

Adults with uneven texture, enlarged pores, acne scarring or mild laxity. Darker skin types need careful assessment, as there’s a higher risk of pigment change.

Before you decide

Recovery and risks

Every option carries risks, and your practitioner will explain them in detail before you decide.

Recovery

Recovery is usually around 5 to 7 days of redness, swelling and small grid marks, and some people recover more quickly.

Recovery varies from person to person.

Possible risks

Redness, swelling, pinpoint marks, bruising, darker or lighter patches of skin, burns, grid marks, infection, cold sore flare, and rarely scarring or changes in fat under the skin.
