Dr. Sarah Dolder and Greenwich Point Dermatology is the number one provider in Connecticut of Morpheus8 by InMode. Contour and rejuvenate the face, neck, and body with transformative results with minimal downtime.
What is Morpheus8?
The Morpheus8 laser combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to address skin laxity for a lifted look. By targeting different depths, from the epidermis to the dermis to the subdermis, the technology creates a more toned complexion. Gold-tipped microneedles stimulate the skin’s natural healing response to generate new skin cells while radiofrequency delivers thermal energy to aid in collagen production and fat remodeling.
Morpheus8 is used to treat:
- Sagging skin on the face, neck, arms, and abdomen
- Acne scarring on the cheeks and chin
- Fine lines and deep wrinkles
Unlike many other resurfacing treatments, Morpheus8 can treat a variety of skin tones and types.
What can I expect during a Morpheus8 treatment?
Prior to your treatment, a topical numbing cream will be applied for about 45 minutes to reduce any associated discomfort. During the treatment, the device tip is applied directly onto the skin, and multiple passes will be done to each area for the best results. To further reduce patient discomfort during the treatment, we offer a cold air chiller that follows along the treatment device.
A Morpheus8 treatment can last anywhere from 60-75 minutes in total, depending on the area being treated.
Morpheus8 Results
The anti-aging effects of Morpheus8 treatment require a few months as the subdermal fat remodels and the skin continues to generate new collagen using the body’s own healing properties.
Depending on your aesthetic goals, one Morpheus8 treatment may be sufficient or a series of treatments may be required. During your consultation with Dr. Dolder, she can advise you on what option would be best for your individual needs.
Morpheus8 Side Effects & Recovery
Unlike other more invasive laser treatments, there is minimal downtime with Morpheus8. You will experience mild redness, slight swelling and bruising immediately post-treatment, but you will be free to return to normal activities the following day. We encourage all patients to be mindful of wearing sunscreen and continuing with a nourishing skin regimen as the skin continues to recover post-treatment.
