What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This process involves making micropunctures in the skin using tiny needles, similar to the SkinPen® procedure, while delivering RF energy for additional tissue remodeling. As both the dermis and epidermis are treated, this signals the body’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin in these skin layers.

Drs. Hajjar and Lumley and their team at Detroit Plastic Surgery offer the Morpheus8 treatment for those who want to improve their skin tone and texture while achieving a tightening effect for beautiful, youthful skin.
What Are the Benefits of Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is an exciting skin care solution as it incorporates the benefits of both microneedling and RF treatments into one procedure. Some of the most notable advantages to choosing Morpheus8 for your skin concerns include:
- Minimally invasive procedure
- Considered safe for all skin tones, including those with dark skin
- Can be performed on virtually any body area
- Helps diminish wrinkles, mild sagging, scarring, age spots, and more
Who Is a Candidate for Morpheus8?
Candidates for Morpheus8 often suffer from mildly sagging skin in varying areas of the body, namely the neck and face (though the treatment can be performed on almost any area). Patients deemed eligible for Morpheus8 may also want to reduce the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, or wrinkles. Unlike certain laser treatments, candidates for Morpheus8 are not limited to those with light skin.
If you are suffering from more pronounced sagging, wrinkles, or fine lines, this treatment may be ideal for you. BOTOX® Cosmetic can be a wonderful add-on treatment for those with moderate to severe facial wrinkles to keep the lines from reforming. Our team will gladly advise you if you are unsure about which procedure is right for you.
How Painful is Morpheus8?
Some patients experience moderate discomfort when the device is guided across the treatment area, but the numbing agent we apply should help to diminish any significant pain. Our providers can also inject additional lidocaine for those who need it.
What Does the Morpheus8 Treatment Involve?
