Frequently asked questions
How Does Morpheus8 Work?
Morpheus8 uses a combination of microneedling and fractional radiofrequency energy to create controlled microdamage in the skin. This process triggers the body’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The radiofrequency energy penetrates deep into the skin layers, up to 8mm, delivering targeted thermal energy that encourages neocollagenesis and elastogenesis.
By precisely heating the deeper layers of the skin while protecting the superficial layers, Morpheus8 effectively tightens and rejuvenates the skin, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Am I a Good Candidate for Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is ideal for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity, wrinkles, acne scars, and other textural issues. It is suitable for most skin types and tones. If you seek non-surgical skin rejuvenation and tightening, Morpheus8 might be the perfect solution for you. A consultation with Dr. Schwarzburg at Skinly Aesthetics will help determine if this treatment is right for you.
Where Can Morpheus8 Be Used?
Face
Morpheus8 effectively reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by stimulating collagen production, leading to smoother, tighter skin. The treatment can significantly improve the texture of your skin by targeting and remodeling scar tissue, making acne scars less visible. Morpheus8 also tightens loose skin around the eyes and jawline giving you a more youthful and defined facial contour.
Neck and Décolleté
Loose, sagging skin on the neck, often referred to as “turkey neck,” can be tightened and smoothed with Morpheus8. The treatment can reduce wrinkles and improve the overall texture of the skin on the chest, giving you a more youthful and even appearance.
Body
Morpheus8 is highly effective in treating various body concerns such as stretch marks, cellulite, and loose skin. It can smooth out the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating collagen production in the affected areas. The treatment also reduces the appearance of cellulite, creating a smoother skin surface. Additionally, it tightens loose skin on the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, helping you achieve a firmer and more toned body contour.
When Should I Avoid Morpheus8?
You should avoid Morpheus8 if you have active cystic acne, an infection, or certain medical conditions such as collagen vascular disorders or dysfunctional wound healing. Pregnant or immunocompromised individuals should also refrain from undergoing this treatment.
How Do I Prepare For the Procedure?
To prepare for your Morpheus8 treatment, schedule a consultation with Dr. Schwarzburg to evaluate your skin and discuss your medical history. Avoid taking blood-thinning medications like aspirin and ibuprofen for a few days before the treatment. Stop using retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, and other active skincare ingredients a week before your session. Minimize sun exposure and avoid tanning beds for at least two weeks prior. Ensure your skin is well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water. On the day of your appointment, arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.
What Does the Actual Morpheus8 Procedure Feel Like?
Prior to the procedure, Dr. Schwarzburg will apply topical anesthesia to numb the treatment area. The Morpheus8 applicator is then used to deliver radiofrequency energy through micro-needles, targeting both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin depending on the treatment goals. Most patients report a sensation of light skin pricking. The treatment typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
What Is Aftercare Following Morpheus8?
Post-treatment care includes applying a cool compress to soothe the skin and using a moisturizing cream provided by Dr. Schwarzburg. It’s important to keep the treated area moisturized and protected from the sun by using sunscreen.
For optimal results, also avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment. Refrain from using retinoic acid creams and undergoing chemical peels for at least two weeks.
What Is Downtime After Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 requires minimal downtime. You can resume your regular activities almost immediately, though it’s advisable to avoid excessive heat, sweating, and alcohol for a few days post-treatment.
What Are the Risks and Complications with Morpheus8?
While generally safe, Morpheus8 can cause temporary redness, swelling, and bruising. You might also notice small needle marks on the treated area, which usually fade within a few days. In some cases, patients may experience prolonged hardening or nerve irritation. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, where the treated skin becomes darker than the surrounding area, can also occur, especially in individuals with darker skin tones.
To minimize these risks, it is crucial to have the procedure performed by a qualified provider like Dr. Schwarzburg.
When Will I See Results After Morpheus8?
Initial improvements from Morpheus8 can be seen within a few days after the treatment. You may notice a slight tightening and smoothing of your skin almost immediately. More significant results become apparent after three to four weeks as the body continues to produce collagen and elastin. During this period, your skin will gradually become firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking.
The full effects of the treatment continue to develop over three to six months. As collagen production ramps up, you will see further improvements in skin texture, reduced appearance of wrinkles, and enhanced skin elasticity. Patients often report a noticeable reduction in acne scars, stretch marks, and overall skin laxity.
How Many Sessions of Morpheus8 Will I Need?
The number of sessions needed for Morpheus8 varies based on individual skin concerns and treatment goals. Some patients achieve the desired results after just one session, while others may require three to five sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart. This spacing allows for optimal collagen production and healing between treatments.
After completing the initial sequence of treatments, Dr. Schwarzburg recommends maintenance treatments every six to eight months. These maintenance sessions help to sustain collagen production, ensuring that your skin remains firm, smooth, and youthful over time.
Is Morpheus8 Safe?
Yes, Morpheus8 is FDA-approved and generally safe when performed by a qualified professional. Dr. Schwarzburg at Skinly Aesthetics ensures a thorough assessment and personalized treatment plan to maximize safety and results.
Does Morpheus8 Hurt?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, thanks to the application of topical anesthesia. You might feel a slight prickling sensation and warmth from the radiofrequency energy.
How Much Does Morpheus8 Cost?
The cost of Morpheus8 ranges from $800 to $3000 per session, depending on the treatment area and provider expertise. Investing in this procedure can save you from the costs and risks associated with surgical alternatives.
What Are The Complementary Treatments?
For enhanced results, Morpheus8 can be paired with various other treatments to provide comprehensive skin rejuvenation and tightening. Combining these treatments can address multiple skin concerns simultaneously.
Botox and Dysport relax facial muscles, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Paired with Morpheus8, they smooth out dynamic wrinkles, complementing the skin-tightening effects.
Fillers like Juvederm and Restylane add volume to areas that have lost fullness. Used with Morpheus8, they enhance facial contours and restore a youthful appearance.
PDO thread lift provides a minimally invasive option for lifting sagging skin. Combined with Morpheus8, they produce more dramatic lifting and tightening, especially in the jawline and neck areas.
What Is the Difference Between Morpheus8 and Regular Microneedling?
Traditional microneedling uses fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response to produce collagen and elastin. This process improves skin texture, reduces fine lines, and diminishes scars over time.
Morpheus8, on the other hand, combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy, delivering controlled thermal energy deep into the skin layers. This combination not only stimulates collagen production more intensely but also tightens the skin by targeting subdermal layers. The RF energy enhances the effects of microneedling by promoting more significant tissue remodeling and skin tightening, making Morpheus8 more effective for addressing moderate skin laxity, deeper wrinkles, and more severe textural issues.
Is Morpheus8 Worth It?
With a high satisfaction rate and the ability to significantly improve skin texture, tightness, and overall appearance, Morpheus8 is a valuable investment for those seeking non-surgical skin rejuvenation.

Frequently asked questions
What is RF Microneedling?
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin while delivering radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis. This dual-action approach stimulates the body’s natural healing process, promoting intense collagen and elastin production. Unlike traditional microneedling, which solely relies on needle-induced micro-injuries, RF microneedling amplifies the results by incorporating RF energy to enhance skin tightening and rejuvenation. This treatment is effective for various skin concerns, including acne, signs of aging, and uneven skin texture. While the face is the most common treatment area, radiofrequency microneedling can also be used on the neck, abdomen, knees, and thighs.
Why RF Microneedling Is Better Than Regular Microneedling?
Traditional microneedling involves creating tiny punctures through microneedles in the skin to trigger the body’s healing response, resulting in the production of new collagen and elastin. This method is excellent for subtle rejuvenation and improved skin texture. However, RF microneedling takes it a step further by adding radiofrequency energy to the process. The radiofrequency energy is delivered through the needles as they create micro-wounds in the dermis, enhancing collagen and elastin production, and providing more noticeable and long-lasting results. The heat generated by the RF energy also aids in skin contraction, tightening and lifting making it a more comprehensive treatment for various skin issues.
What Does RF Microneedling Treat?
Radiofreqency microneedling is a versatile treatment that can address a wide range of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and deep wrinkles
- Uneven skin texture
- Skin tone or pigmentation issues
- Enlarged pores
- All types of acne scars
- Stretch marks
- Droopy and lax skin
What Are the Benefits of RF Microneedling?
Radiofrequency microneedling offers a multitude of benefits, making it a premier choice for skin rejuvenation and overall skin health. This advanced treatment stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins that help maintain a youthful and firm complexion.
One of the standout features of RF microneedling is its stronger, more intense, and longer-lasting effects compared to traditional microneedling. The addition of radiofrequency energy enhances the treatment’s efficacy, providing deeper and more substantial results.
RF microneedling not only improves skin texture and complexion but also promotes significant skin tightening and lifting. This makes it an excellent option for those looking to combat skin laxity and achieve a more youthful appearance.
Additionally, RF microneedling can remodel subdermal fat at a deeper level, allowing for facial and body contouring. This unique capability enables the treatment to address areas beyond superficial skin concerns, offering more comprehensive rejuvenation and contouring benefits.
What Should I Expect During an RF Microneedling Treatment?
An RF microneedling treatment session is designed to be both quick and convenient, typically lasting between 30 to 50 minutes depending on the area being treated and the specific skin condition.
Upon arrival, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any impurities and prevent infection, ensuring a clean and safe environment for the treatment. A topical anesthetic is then applied to the treatment area to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure, with the numbing cream taking about 15-20 minutes to take full effect.
Dr. Schwarzburg will use the RF microneedling device to create precise micro-wounds in the skin while simultaneously delivering RF energy. The depth and intensity of the needles are adjusted based on your specific skin concerns, whether it’s for collagen stimulation, skin tightening, or subdermal fat remodeling.
Once the treatment is complete, an ointment or serum is applied to the treated area to support cell regeneration and enhance the overall results. This final step helps soothe the skin and kickstarts the healing process.
What Is The Aftercare Following The Treatment?
After the session, you can immediately return to your normal activities, although you may experience some mild side effects such as dryness, scaling, swelling, redness, or cold sores. These effects are typically short-lived and subside within a few days. Over the next 3 to 4 months, as collagen and elastin production continues, you will notice significant improvements in your skin’s appearance, leading to a more youthful, rejuvenated complexion.
