What are the benefits of Morpheus8?
You will experience immediate results after the quick, non-invasive Morpheus8 treatment, which requires no downtime. A session typically lasts between 15 to 60 minutes in an office setting. After the procedure, your skin will feel tighter and smoother. By following regular sun protection, you can enjoy your glowing skin and return to your daily routine right away.
What conditions does Morpheus8 treat?
Morpheus8 is most popular for anti-aging treatments, particularly for the face and neck. However, it can be used on various parts of the body to address scars from acne or trauma, including keloids, stretch marks, large pores, pigmentation issues, and age spots caused by sun damage. Compared to traditional microneedling, Morpheus8 penetrates deeper into the skin, making it effective for a wider range of skin concerns. If you have a specific skin issue, consult a cosmetic expert trained in RF microneedling to see how Morpheus8 can benefit you.
How long before I see results from Morpheus8?
You’ll begin to notice improvements immediately after your first Morpheus8 treatment, with your skin feeling firmer and smoother, and a more radiant complexion emerging. You’ll also see a visible reduction in acne scars or stretch marks in the treated areas. For best results, we recommend scheduling follow-up Morpheus8 sessions every 4 to 6 weeks, with a total of 3 to 4 treatments. This treatment plan ensures optimal, long-lasting outcomes.
What makes Morpheus8 different from traditional microbleeding?
Morpheus8 is an advanced form of microneedling that combines radiofrequency (RF) technology with microneedling. Unlike traditional microneedling, which uses a roller of microneedles across the skin, Morpheus8 uses RF-powered microneedles to create precise punctures in targeted areas. The depth of the microneedles can be adjusted by the specialist, allowing for a customized treatment based on the specific skin condition.
Traditional microneedling relies solely on the aesthetician’s technique and lacks the RF technology that enhances deeper skin rejuvenation. Morpheus8’s flexibility also makes it effective for treating challenging areas like the hands, chin, and neck.
Who is a good candidate for Morpheus8?
Non-surgical skin treatments like Morpheus8 are ideal for individuals with visible signs of aging, scarring, or other skin concerns. It’s also an excellent option for those beginning to notice early fine lines or wrinkles and want to start a preventative regimen to avoid more invasive procedures down the road. Since Morpheus8 is a non-invasive treatment offered in our medspa, it is suitable for a broader range of patients compared to traditional plastic surgery.
How do I take care of my skin after Morpheus8?
You can resume your regular activities immediately after the treatment. You’ll be given post-care instructions, including using at least 30 SPF sunscreen and protecting the treated area from direct sunlight. While some minor swelling or bruising may occur, recovery time can be as short as an hour. Our experienced Morpheus8 practitioner will provide detailed aftercare guidelines and address any questions or concerns you have before and after the procedure.
How often do I need Morpheus?
Since Morpheus8 delivers fast results, some patients opt for a single treatment before special events like weddings or reunions. However, for lasting benefits, we recommend scheduling 3 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Consult with our expert practitioner to create a personalized Morpheus8 treatment plan for achieving long-term, optimal results.
IPL
What is IPL?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target various skin concerns such as pigmentation, sun damage, redness, and broken capillaries. It works by delivering pulses of light that penetrate the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin rejuvenation. IPL is commonly used to improve skin tone, texture, and overall appearance with minimal downtime. Consultations are complimentary. Schedule your consultation today! 817.500.0557
How long does IPL laser treatment take?
The exact duration depends on the area being treated, but it generally takes between an hour to an hour and a half. This includes an additional 30 minutes for the application of topical numbing before the procedure.
Does an IPL laser hurt?
IPL is not considered a painful treatment, and most patients find the laser quite tolerable. During the procedure, you may feel mild discomfort, often described as a light snapping sensation with some heat. To ensure your comfort, a topical numbing agent is applied 30 minutes before the treatment.
When will begin to see results after an IPL treatment?
Patients typically start to see results 7-10 days after an IPL treatment, with full results becoming visible after about two weeks. As IPL stimulates new collagen production, the benefits will continue to improve for up to six months following the initial session.
How long do results from an IPL treatment last?
The improvements from an IPL treatment can last for several years. To extend the results, it’s important to consistently use SPF, minimize sun exposure, and maintain a proper skincare routine at home.
What area can I treat with IPL laser treatment?
IPL can be used on virtually any part of the body, with the most popular treatment areas being the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands. These areas are commonly targeted to improve skin tone and texture.
Is there any downtime associated with an IPL laser treatment?
There is no required downtime after an IPL treatment, and you can apply makeup and resume normal activities immediately. Post-treatment, you may experience some redness, similar to a mild sunburn. Any existing hyperpigmentation will darken and may resemble “coffee grounds,” which will gradually flake off as the skin heals.
Are there any side effects or possible risks to an IPL treatment?
As with any medical procedure, there are risks associated with IPL treatment. During your consultation, your provider will assess whether you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. If you experience any concerning side effects after your IPL treatment, contact the practice immediately.
Who is NOT a candidate for IPL laser?
IPL treatment may not be suitable for individuals with certain health conditions. It is not recommended for patients currently taking Accutane or for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Additionally, IPL is not recommended for individuals with darker skin tones due to potential risks.
