Morpheus8, RF Microneedling
PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure the best results from your Morpheus8 RF Microneedling treatment, please follow these pre-treatment guidelines:
Avoid sun exposure and tanning for 1-2 weeks prior to your treatment to reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation and irritation.
Make sure you have not had Botox or Filler at least 2 weeks prior to your treatment to reduce the risk of migration or tissue changes.
Discontinue the use of any active skincare products (such as retinoids, AHAs/BHAs, or exfoliating products) for 5-7 days before your appointment.
Avoid waxing or plucking the treatment area for at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure. Shaving is acceptable.
Do not schedule any other facial treatments (such as chemical peels, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion) 1-2 weeks before your Morpheus8 session.
Arrive with clean skin—make sure there is no makeup, lotions, or sunscreen on the treatment area before your session.
Hydrate your skin by drinking plenty of water leading up to your treatment to promote a smoother healing process.
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have active skin conditions (such as eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea), please inform your provider beforehand.
Avoid blood-thinning medications (like aspirin or ibuprofen) for 48 hours before your appointment, unless directed otherwise by your doctor.
POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
After your Morpheus8 RF Microneedling treatment, follow these post-care guidelines to ensure optimal healing and results:
Avoid sun exposure for at least 1-2 weeks after the treatment. Always apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ or higher to protect the treated area.
Do not apply makeup for 24-48 hours after your session to prevent irritation and allow the skin to heal.
Avoid harsh skincare products (such as AHAs, BHAs, retinoids, and exfoliants) for 5-7 days after the treatment to prevent skin irritation.
Avoid hot showers, saunas, and intense physical activity for 48 hours after the procedure to minimize irritation and inflammation.
Avoid picking or scratching the treated area to prevent infection and scarring.
Mild redness and swelling are common and should subside within 24-48 hours.
Apply a soothing, hydrating moisturizer as recommended by your provider to help soothe the skin and aid in recovery.
Some mild peeling or flaking may occur as the skin heals and regenerates over the following days. This is completely normal and typically lasts around 3-5 days.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to support the healing process.
Reschedule your follow-up treatment as recommended by your provider to achieve optimal results. Typically, a series of treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended.
Note: Morpheus8 RF Microneedling combines the benefits of microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production, tighten skin, and improve texture. Full results will appear gradually over 3-6 months as your skin continues to regenerate. A series of treatments may be necessary for optimal outcomes and maintenance therapy is recommended annually.
