Morpheus8 Information & Instructions
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive bipolar radiofrequency (RF) tissue treatment. If you have purchased a package, treatments will be scheduled 4-6 weeks apart.
Do not use retinol 5 days prior to treatment or post treatment. Sun avoidance for one week post-procedure is advised. Avoid sweat-inducing exercise for 48 hours following your treatment. Please talk to your provider about skincare.
You may experience the following post-treatment, which is normal:
- Minimal pinpoint bleeding
- Mild redness
- Minimal swelling
- Mild discomfort
- Tingling sensation from numbing cream
- Warmth and heat from radiofrequency energy
- Sensation of a sunburn
Cleansing:
Wash your face with cold water 4 hours after your procedure and then apply your recommended topical post-procedure product to the entire treatment area.
It is important to maintain clean skin. Please ask us what cleanser would be appropriate for you.
Days 2-4 Post-treatment:
Cleanse with your recommended cleanser and then apply your recommended topical post-procedure product twice a day. No other skincare products should be applied at this time. You can, however, apply SkinBetter’s Smart Tone or Sheer SPF Lotion starting on day 2.
Day 5 Post-treatment:
You may restart your skincare regimen now and make-up can be applied. A personalized skincare routine will be recommended by our office, based on your needs and concerns.
We recommend doing one Morpheus8 treatment approximately every 7 months for maintenance and best results.
