Morpheus 8 is a fractional radiofrequency, also known as microneedling with gold needles. Gold needle application is one of the most popular non-surgical aesthetic procedures worldwide. The gold needle application is an energy-based system performed with a device, without injecting any substance. One of the best aspects of non-surgical aesthetics is that individuals can continue their daily lives. Rejuvenation triggered by the production of their own collagen and elastin, particularly in patients who prefer not to undergo injection-based methods or surgery, is especially preferred.
Morpheus 8 is an FDA-approved fractional radiofrequency device widely used worldwide. In this procedure, radiofrequency energy is delivered to the subdermal layer using micro-needles in a controlled manner, heating the skin and stimulating collagen synthesis. The device has different applicator tips for various reasons and anatomical areas. Each tip contains micro-needles that can reach different depths. These needles deliver energy to the deeper layers of the skin, triggering the production of new collagen and elastin.
It is used for skin renewal, tightening, pore reduction, reduction of fine lines, reduction of spots, acne treatment and correction of acne scars, reduction of surgical scars, reduction of stretch marks (striae), body tightening, reduction of cellulite appearance, reduction of neck wrinkles, and under-eye bags.
