Morpheus8 Microneedling
What is Morpheus8 microneedling?
Morpheus8 is a fractional skin treatment that stimulates collagen production in the underlying layers of skin, or the dermis, by passing tiny, hair-thin needles over the surface of the skin to create micro-channels. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, microneedling stimulates the building blocks of firm, elastic skin to reorganize themselves in a natural anti-aging process to help provide additional tightening to the skin to minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
Morpheus8 microneedling is unique among medical spa services: it combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF), which promotes collagen and elastin production on an even deeper level of the skin. This leads to more visible results than micro-needling alone can achieve, including skin tightening, more even skin tone, fewer fine lines and wrinkles, and an overall more vibrant, youthful appearance.
This treatment can be done on almost any area of the body that exhibits wrinkles, discoloration, or acne scarring.

Combining Morpheus8 with FaceTite for increased skin tightening
Embrace RF by InMode is a new procedure that combines two powerful and clinically proven technologies to provide a dramatic improvement to skin laxity: FaceTite (percutaneous bipolar RF) treatment followed by the new Morpheus 8 (microneedling RF).
FaceTite utilizes a small handpiece, inserted beneath the skin, that melts fat and tightens the skin. Adding this to the Morpheus8 treatment addresses laxity deeper in the subdermal/subcutaneous fat are to help remodel that layer. Patients see improved tightening and enhanced outcomes.
While minimally invasive, this medical procedure combination should be performed by a board certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Maningas for your safety. Morpheus8 alone, however, may be performed by a nurse or experienced esthetician.
