UNCOVER NATURAL AND YOUTHFUL CONTOURS.

At The Gua Sha Facial Co., the incorporation of innovative treatments like Morpheus8, a microneedling technology, seeks to redefine skin’s natural and youthful state. Driven by radiofrequency, Morpheus8 assists in skin rejuvenation by penetrating beneath the skin surface, invoking collagen production, and bolstering the tightening of skin tissue. Regardless of your skin type, Morpheus8 is universally adaptable and aids in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, scars, and skin laxity, giving life back to your skin.

I prioritize customer satisfaction and comfort, ensuring that each procedure is conducted with utmost precision and minimal side effects. While the treatment area might bear slight to moderate redness following the session, the resulting skin transformation – improved texture and tone, reduced hyperpigmentation, and vibrant radiance is undeniably worth the mild discomfort.

Morpheus8 targets the dermis – the second layer of skin where the production of collagen and elastin occurs. The applicator that consists of microneedles delivers RF energy deep into the dermis. This stimulates the body’s natural collagen production, thereby aiding in skin tightening and rejuvenation.

Frequently Asked Questions:

 

WHAT IS MORPHEUS8?

Morpheus8 is the latest breakthrough in skincare technology, offering an array of benefits for those seeking improved skin texture, tone, and overall rejuvenation. Morpheus 8 is a radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device that warms the dermis to stimulate collagen production – the protein responsible for maintaining skin elasticity. The uniqueness of Morpheus8 lies in its ability to deliver RF energy to multiple depths, add ablation (which other RF devices don’t have), have the highest power, leading to more comprehensive skin tightening and contouring, scar revision, and wrinkle reduction. 

The procedure employs an array of microneedles, creating micro-punctures within the skin. These micro-punctures trigger the body’s inherent healing responses, allowing a channel for RF energy to reach deep into the dermis. As a result, the combined effect of microneedling and RF treatment encourages accelerated collagen production, leading to a noticeable improvement in skin laxity, wrinkles, sagging, and other signs of aging.

The Gua Sha Facial Co. offers the Morpheus8 treatment, and clients can expect the following after undergoing this revolutionary treatment:

  • Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

  • Improved overall skin tone and texture

  • Firmer, more youthful skin as a result of increased collagen production

  • Minimized scarring and hyperpigmentation, revealing a more balanced complexion

 

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?

Primarily, Morpheus8 works wonders on the face, neck, and décolletage, which are often the first areas to show signs of aging. This RF microneedling procedure stimulates collagen production, thereby improving the skin’s elasticity, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and freshening up the complexion. The result is firmer-looking skin, an enhanced jawline and contour, along with an overall youthful glow.

Morpheus8 ‘can’ be used to treat the entire body.

 At The Gua Sha Facial Co., I only treat the face, neck and decolletage areas.

You will choose ONE area per session. 

Areas include:

Face area(forehead, cheeks, eye area, lip area) 

Neck area(neck, jawline and under chin if needed)

Decolletage area(decolletage area only (upper chest)   

 

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

One of the main questions surrounding the Morpheus8 treatment is – how many sessions does it take to achieve the desired results?  The answer relies largely on the current condition of your skin, the treatment area, and your aesthetic goals. As with most skincare treatments, the Morpheus8 treatment is not a one-time solution but rather a process to provide cumulative and progressive results. Usually people need three to six treatments on average.

Typically, a series of treatments is recommended for optimal results, with most patients likely to see significant improvements within three sessions. However, the extent of skin aging or damage, personal health, and other factors can adjust this number. Any subsequent treatments have a compounding effect, resulting in enhanced skin rejuvenation with each session as collagen production escalates over time.

Factors that typically determine the number of treatments needed include:

  • The presence and severity of skin issues like sagging, wrinkles, scars, and hyperpigmentation.

  • The patient’s individual skincare goals and desired results.

  • The response rate to treatments can vary from person to person.

  • The patient’s overall health condition and lifestyle factors, such as sun exposure and smoking habits.

 

HOW QUICKLY WILL I SEE RESULTS?

When it comes to visible results from the Morpheus8 treatment, the timeline can vary based on individual skin conditions and the body’s natural healing process. This leading-edge technology stimulates the body’s inherent healing response, prompting collagen production and gradually improving the skin’s overall condition.

In the following days and weeks after your session, the skin complexion will continue improving as new collagen fibers are formed, firming the skin and enhancing its elasticity. This youthful glow is accompanied by a visible reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and scars, revealing a smoother, tighter, and more radiant complexion over time.

At about three months after the treatment, clients often notice the most visible changes. However, it’s crucial to note that the full benefits of the treatment may not be disclosed until three months post-procedure, as the body continues to create new collagen. The in-depth remodeling of skin tissue that Morpheus8 triggers have enduring effects, offering an impressively prolonged period of continual skin enhancement and rejuvenation.

 

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF RF (Radiofrequency) FRACTIONATED ENERGY?

Among the myriad of benefits that Morpheus8 offers, the use of fractionated RF energy stands as a unique advantage. When used in the treatment of skin irregularities, this practice amplifies the rejuvenating effect by initiating a controlled response from the body. The fractionated delivery of RF energy creates micro-injuries in the skin, spurring the body’s self-healing properties into action.

These strategically created microscopic treatment zones instigate a healing response that causes the production of new collagen and elastin, the proteins essential for skin elasticity and tone. The precision offered by fractionated RF energy allows treatment to reach varying depths in the skin, providing unmatched customization according to individual skin needs. It caters to the precise level of rejuvenation required, whether superficial or deep, making it a truly tailored treatment.

The Morpheus8 treatment achieves an optimal balance between aggressive coagulation and gentle thermal heating. As a result, it gives room for more effective collagen remodeling while minimizing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or damage to the epidermis.

 

CAN ANYONE USE MORPHEUS8?

Morpheus8 is designed to be versatile, adjustable, and efficacious across a broad spectrum of skin types, and all ethnicities. However, a universally effective treatment strategy doesn’t necessarily mean it’s advisable for everyone. A common misconception about aesthetic treatments like Morpheus8 is that they’re suitable for everybody, but an individual’s general health, skin condition, and specific needs play decisive roles in determining their suitability.

Typically, individuals with skin laxity issues, sagging, visible signs of aging, scarring, or stretch marks are potential candidates for Morpheus8. In contrast, individuals with active skin infections, unstable skin conditions, or those who are pregnant might not be eligible for the treatment. The key is individual assessment.

 

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF RF ENERGY?

Radiofrequency (RF) energy, a core component of the Morpheus8 treatment, is recognized for its efficiency in skin tightening and rejuvenation procedures. It provides thermal stimulation to the skin, which, in turn, triggers the natural production of collagen and elastin – essential proteins for skin elasticity and firmness. RF energy also facilitates deeper penetration beneath the skin surface, ensuring thorough treatment and optimal results.

The use of RF energy affords safer, more controlled heating of tissues, resulting in minimal discomfort during treatment. By targeting the deeper layers of skin, it stimulates a natural healing response, leading to long-lasting skin rejuvenation.

 

The unique interplay of RF energy with needle penetration in Morpheus8 facilitates this deep penetration without excessively damaging the skin surface. The following are the key benefits of integrating RF energy in the Morpheus8 treatment:

  • Boosts collagen production for improved skin elasticity and reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.

  • Provides skin tightening from within, delivering long-lasting results.

  • Reshapes and contours the skin for a more youthful appearance.

  • Improves the overall texture and tone of the skin.

 

CAN THIS BE USED IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER TREATMENTS?

For more comprehensive skincare, the Morpheus8 treatment is often combined with other treatments to achieve optimum results.  Each individual’s skin carries its unique set of needs.

Dermaplaning can compliment or enhance the procedure. It needs to be done typically one to two weeks before the Morpheus8 treatment.  When doing a Dermaplaning pre-treatment, I will add a Hydrafacial to clean the skin deeply and prepare it for the Morpheus8 treatment.   I will not perform Dermplaning and Hydrafacial on the same day as the Morpheus8 treatment.  This would be too harsh for your skin.

 

WHEN CAN I PUT MAKE-UP ON AFTER TREATMENT?

In the aftermath of a Morpheus8 treatment, one common question is regarding the application of makeup. The process stirs up changes within your skin, so it’s crucial to give your rejuvenated skin some time before applying makeup. The healing process varies across individuals, but general guidelines exist to ensure you show off your refreshed complexion without hindering its recovery.

Typically, post-Morpheus8, your skin might appear red and feel slightly tender, similar to a mild sunburn. It’s recommended you avoid applying makeup immediately after the procedure, as your skin needs time to heal. Allowing your skin to breathe and recover is an essential part of maintaining the health and vitality of your skin. While the initial fresh glow might tempt you to dress up your skin, patience truly is a virtue in such cases.

On average, it’s usually safe to begin applying makeup 24-48 hours post-treatment. However, these are broad guidelines, and the actual time can differ based on individual healing rates and skin sensitivity. 

 

WHAT KIND OF POST PROCEDURE CARE IS REQUIRED?

Post-procedure care plays an integral role in the lasting success of any treatment, including Morpheus8. Following specific guidelines can help maximize the effects of the treatment, accelerate the healing process, and avoid discomfort.

Immediately after the treatment, your skin may resemble the effects of a mild sunburn, with possible redness and warmth. Nothing should be applied for 24 hours, then a gentle, soothing post treatment cream can help alleviate the initial discomfort. It’s advised to avoid direct sun exposure for a few days and use a recommended sunscreen to maintain skin health.

Keeping the skin clean and avoiding any harsh exfoliants, retinols, or strong actives in your skincare routine for the first few days following the treatment helps promote the skin’s natural repair process. Clients who adhere to these instructions encourage skin healing and nurturing, enabling quicker recovery and enhanced results.

If you are ready to get started with the Morpheus8 Microneedling RF fractional treatment, here's my recommendation: 

 *Book a Dermaplaning with Hydrafacial 1 to 2 weeks before your treatment. 

 ( I cannot do a Dermaplaning and/or Hydrafacial the day of the treatment. )

This will also be a consult-time and to perform a skin evaluation/examination before booking the Morpheus8 treatment.  I can also answer questions about the procedure during this session.  And I will also give you your Pre-treatment form/Post-treatment form and Consent forms to fill out before the treatment appointment day/time.  

* This is not mandatory, you may book the treatment without a Dermaplaning/Hydrafacial.
