What is Morpheus8 Body

Morpheus8 Body is a minimally invasive treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) energy and micro-needling to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite.

How Morpheus8 Body works

Utilizing a tip that consists of 40 thin gold-plated microneedles, bipolar radiofrequency energy is distributed deep into the layers of skin. This helps to stimulate collagen production and improve the overall appearance.

Is it painful

There can be some mild discomfort with the treatment but to avoid this, we apply a prescription strength topical anesthetic. We then cover it with saran wrap and let it sit for an hour. This significantly reduces any discomfort.

Number of treatments needed

A total of 3-4 treatments (spaced 4-6 weeks apart) is usually recommended.

Areas of the body that can be treated

Most commonly the stomach, thighs, back, and buttocks are treated.

As you can see, the photo shows textbook psoriasis flareups all over her face. A lot of people found the photo quite shocking and can’t believe how she is regularly able to conceal it.

Psoriasis is a common skin condition that affects more than 8 million Americans. Typically developing between the ages of 15-25, symptoms consist of skin redness and irritation with silver-colored scales. Usually occurring on the scalp, face, hands, elbows, knees, and feet, it is believed to occur when the body’s immune system mistakes healthy cells for dangerous or harmful substances.

A common misconception is that psoriasis is contagious, this is not the case. Some things that can contribute to worsening the condition though include too much exposure to sunlight, consumption of alcohol, and even stress. It can be treated in many different ways, with the most common options being topical ointments or creams, lotions, and shampoos.
