Morpheus8 is a new cutting-edge fractional device that combines microneedling and radio frequency to remodel and contour your face and body. This treatment penetrates deep into your skin and fat resulting in a smoother and sleeker appearance. Morpheus8 has the ability to penetrate deeper into the skin than any other microneedling device, going as deep as 4mm, plus another 1mm of tissue heating. This treatment is a minimally invasive, safe, non-surgical option for sub-dermal adipose remodeling and tightening of the skin. Not only does Morpheus8 help with collagen remodeling and tightening of the skin, but will also break down superficial fat that accumulates as we age creating a saggy appearance most commonly noticeable in the lower face, neck, and often the knees.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Morpheus8 can be used on any areas of the body that can benefit from sub-dermal renewal. The most commonly treated areas include the lower face and neck. Areas of the face and body that exhibit wrinkles, discolouration or acne scarring are ideal for treatment.

What To Expect During The Procedure
45 minutes to an hour before your treatment, a topical numbing cream will be applied to your skin to reduce any discomfort. Skin Worthy also offers Pronox, an on demand pain management system to reduce any discomfort and anxiety during any of our treatments.
Many patients describe the treatment as a feeling of pressure, a pinching sensation and heat to follow, but generally tolerable. The treatment typically takes 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the number and sizes of areas being treated.
Results:
For optimal results we recommend 3-4 treatments. Number of treatments required is dependent upon the patient’s treatment goals and individual current skin condition. Visible results can start to be seen within a few weeks, but the most noticeable results typically appear after three months.
The results of Morpheus8 are long term and can last for years, but it’s important to invest in your new healthy skin by using a regular skin maintenance program of medical grade skincare, treatments such as Forever Young BBL and daily application of SPF 30+.
