Morpheus8 vs Microneedling
Morpheus8 and microneedling are both skin rejuvenation treatments, but they have some key differences. Here is how to decide which treatment is right for you.
Technology:
- Morpheus8 is a more advanced treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. It uses tiny needles to deliver RF energy deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.
- Microneedling involves using fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which triggers the body’s natural healing response and encourages collagen production.
Depth of Treatment:
- Morpheus8 can deliver RF energy at different depths (up to 4mm for permanent fat reduction along the jawline) allowing for customized treatment of both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin.
- Microneedling typically focuses on the superficial and middle layers of the skin.
Skin Tightening:
- Morpheus8 is known for its skin-tightening capabilities due to the RF energy, making it effective for reducing sagging skin and wrinkles.
- Microneedling primarily improves skin texture and can help with scars and fine lines, but it may not have the same level of skin tightening effect.
Downtime:
- Morpheus8 may have a bit more downtime and potential redness or swelling, as it combines microneedling with RF energy.
- Microneedling alone tends to have a shorter recovery period with less downtime.
Number of Sessions:
- Morpheus8 often requires 3-6 sessions for noticeable results, while microneedling requires 4-8 sessions to achieve your desired outcome.
Cost:
- Morpheus8 is usually more expensive than traditional microneedling due to the advanced technology and potential for fewer sessions.
