MORPHEUS8 for Acne and Scarring
Morpheus8 is the latest evolution of dual-technology radiofrequency (RF) micro-needling that delivers therapeutic RF energy to the dermis and sub-dermis, where it has maximum benefit, through variable-length needles. It is used for tightening, remodeling, and resurfacing the skin.
Radiofrequency (RF) micro-needling treatments have been shown to improve both active acne and chronic acne scarring. Morpheus8 is the latest generation device offering even better results because of the sophisticated new technology delivering the RF energy deeper and precisely where it has the greatest effect. Additionally, Morpheus8 can safely treat all skin types, even darker skin.
When treating active acne, whether mild or severe, the RF energy addresses the two main causative factors by causing the sebaceous glands to shrink and reduce the excessive oil production, while at the same time killing off the acne bacteria and helping to clean up the follicles.
When treating acne scarring, whether mild or severe, Morpheus8 induces changes in the scar layers of the dermis and sub-dermis that stimulate new collagen formation with tightening and remodelling of the scars.
Depending on the severity of your acne or scarring, but generally, 2-4 treatments are given 4-6 weeks apart to allow your skin time to respond between treatments.
Benefits
Most will derive long-term benefits. In some patients, benefits may be permanent. Ability to achieve significant results without harsh medications and peels.
Treatment guide
Before the Morpheus8 treatment, the skin is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimise discomfort during the procedure.
Morpheus8 microneedling is applied the tiny, fine needles create micro-injuries on the skin's surface. These controlled injuries stimulate the body's natural wound-healing response, promoting collagen and elastin production.
Simultaneously, the Morpheus8 device delivers Radiofrequency (RF) Energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This heat energy helps tighten and remodel the collagen, improving skin texture and reducing scarring.
The depth of microneedling and intensity of RF energy can be adjusted to suit the specific needs of the patient, targeting acne scars and active acne lesions.

Considerations
