Say goodbye to wrinkled skin and get fierce again. Anti-wrinkle | Smooth skin | Plump skin The trend of the year, the latest innovation in skin tightening, Morpheus8, restores skin firmness, tightens pores, refines skin texture, and stimulates collagen without surgery!!
What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a skin tightening technology that uses RF (Radio Frequency) energy. It can deliver energy at multiple levels of the skin (Multi Layer Technology) at depths of 2, 3, and 4 millimeters. The SMAS layer, typically targeted in facelift surgeries, can now be non-surgically treated with Morpheus8’s latest technology, achieving skin tightening without the need for surgery (Non-Surgical Lifting). There is no downtime, no scars, and it is FDA-approved in the United States, ensuring safety and no harm to the skin. It is the deepest FDA-approved fractional technology available.
Morpheus8 is a specialized technique developed by “the medical team at Pruksa Clinic”. It ensures precision and optimal results through the unique application of energy settings via different needle heads. This requires expertise and thorough analysis of individual skin issues to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment. The lifting effect is real, and noticeable changes can be seen from the first session.
How Morpheus8 Works
Morpheus8 delivers radio frequency energy into the skin through a device with 24 small gold needles. This unique technology induces contraction of the subcutaneous fat layer, reducing subcutaneous fat and stimulating the reorganization of collagen in the dermis (Dermal Remodeling) and the subdermal fat layer (Subdermal Adipose Remodeling Device – SARD). The device can adjust the depth of penetration from 1 to 4 millimeters without causing heat or post-treatment dark spots.
How is Morpheus8 Different from Other Skin Tightening Devices?
Morpheus8 differs from other skin tightening devices due to its specific technology, the Fractional Microneedle RF. The Morpheus8 device features a head with small needles arranged together. When placed on the skin, it delivers energy through these needles to stimulate the muscles and fat layers, leading to a reorganization of these tissues. The Morpheus8 device head is used only once and is not reused. Each head is packaged in a gamma-sterilized (GAMMA sterilized) pouch, ensuring cleanliness and safety. This approach ensures that the treatment is both hygienic and effective.

- Collagen Reorganization: Stimulates the reorganization of collagen in the dermis.
- Subcutaneous Fat Contraction: Tightens the subcutaneous fat layer, resulting in firmer and smoother skin.
- HA Production: Promotes the production of hyaluronic acid, rejuvenating aged skin.
- Addresses Sagging Skin and Wrinkles: Reduces sagging skin, diminishes wrinkles, and minimizes skin laxity.
Preparing for Morpheus8 Treatment
- Avoid Heavy Makeup: Do not wear heavy makeup before the treatment.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Avoid strong sunlight for at least 2 weeks before the treatment.
- Stop Supplements and Blood Thinners: Avoid taking supplements or blood-thinning medications at least 1 week before the treatment.
- Avoid Exfoliating: Do not exfoliate or scrub the area to be treated.
- Avoid Outdoor Activities: Refrain from outdoor activities that may irritate the skin before the treatment.
Morpheus8 Procedure Steps
- Sterilization: The staff will clean and sterilize the face or the area to be treated.
- Numbing Cream Application: A numbing cream will be applied to the skin and left for about 30-45 minutes to take effect.
- Preparation: Once the numbing cream has taken effect, it will be wiped off, and the skin will be cleaned again. The Morpheus8 device, equipped with a gold-coated needle tip, will be placed on the treatment area. The device will be set to the desired depth, and radiofrequency energy will be delivered into the skin. This energy transforms into heat, reorganizing the skin’s structure and causing the subcutaneous fat layer to contract.
- Cooling: During the procedure, a cool air blower may be used to keep the patient comfortable.
- Post-Procedure: After the procedure, a cold compress may be applied to reduce swelling. The patient can then go home immediately.
Post-Treatment Care for Morpheus8
- Cold Compress: Apply a cold compress to the treated area for at least 15-20 minutes to soothe the skin.
- Healing Ointment: Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly or antibiotic ointment to the treated area for 1-3 days.
- Avoid Water: Do not let the treated area come into contact with water for at least 24 hours after the procedure. Avoid washing your face or using wet wipes.
- Resuming Face Washing: You can wash your face normally after 24 hours.
- Sunscreen: Regularly apply sunscreen with SPF 30 PA+++ after the treatment.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Avoid strong sunlight for 2 weeks.
- Avoid Activities: Refrain from outdoor activities, exercising, sauna, and swimming for at least 2 weeks.
After the Morpheus8 procedure, scabbing can occur for about 3-10 days, depending on individual skin conditions:
- Dry Skin: Scabs may remain on the skin for approximately 7-10 days.
- Oily Skin: Scabs may remain for about 3-5 days.
- Body Areas: Scabs on body areas may last around 2-3 weeks.
How Many Morpheus8 Treatments are Needed to See Results and How Often Should They Be Done?
After just one treatment, you can immediately feel your skin becoming tighter, smoother, and your pores looking smaller. The skin will feel even more tightened about 2-3 days after the treatment, or within the first week, depending on the treatment area and the individual’s skin condition. The results will continue to improve over approximately 3 weeks, becoming most noticeable around 3 months. Doctors recommend undergoing at least 1-3 consecutive sessions to achieve clear, long-lasting results.
