Morpheus 8 to treat sagging skin

Morpheus 8 is an aesthetic medicine tool that combines the benefits of microneedling and radiofrequency. The device features fine needles that penetrate deep into the skin to deliver an electric current. This process induces a neo-collagen phenomenon: fibroblasts are stimulated to synthesize more collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible forskin maintenance andhydration.

Morpheus 8 is an effective skin regeneration treatment. As a result, it is particularly well-suited to combating the effects of skin aging. The skin produces less collagen with age: it dehydrates and sags, causing wrinkles and fine lines to appear as fat melts and muscles lose support. The stimulating effect of Morpheus 8 remodels subcutaneous tissue, restoring facial volume and filling in wrinkles.

Other indications include:

• Treatactive acne and erase acne scars;
• Eliminate cellulite and orange peel skin;
• Removing hypertrophic and keloid scars;
• Reduce stretch marks;
• Correct pigmentation disorders, such as lentigos;
• Treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).

The face

Morpheus8 is particularly effective for treating sagging skin and the signs of aging all over the face. Thanks to its technology combining fractionated radiofrequency and microneedling, it intensely stimulates deep collagen and elastin production. This treatment is ideal for targeting sensitive areas such as :

• Cheeks and cheekbones (firming and volume redefinition)
• The jawline (oval of the face)
• Chin (double chin, wrinkled skin)
• Neck (smoothing and firming)
• Eye contour (puffiness, fine lines, sagging eyelids)
• Forehead and brow area (expression lines)

The result: a visibly firmer face, redefined features and smoother skin, without surgery.

The body

On the body, Morpheus8 effectively treats areas of sagging skin, uneven texture or stretch marks. It is particularly recommended for :

• Belly (after pregnancy or weight loss)
• Arms (especially inner arms)
• Thighs and buttocks (firming, reduction of "orange peel" effect)
• Knees (crumpled skin)
• Back (folded areas)
• Stretch marks (old or new)

By acting deep in the dermis, Morpheus8 improves skin tone, refines the silhouette and offers gradual but natural results, with little or no social eviction.

Before any procedure, Dr Santini will welcome you to his practice to conduct a clinical examination of your skin and establish a personalized treatment protocol.

The treatment session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. It proceeds as follows: first, the device is programmed according to the skin's characteristics; after removing make-up and disinfecting the application area, the doctor applies the needles. The needles penetrate to a depth of between one and eight millimeters, distributing energy evenly over several layers of skin. The heat thus developed causes localized coagulation of the subcutaneous tissues, initiating their regeneration.

The procedure is not painful. However, an anaesthetic cream can be applied before the session to prevent any discomfort.

Slight redness and swelling are common. These disappear within a few hours. Treatment with Morpheus 8 does not involve any social exclusion: you can resume your activities once the session is over.

However, we recommend that you keep your skin well moisturized and limit sun exposure for a week after the procedure.

The results of Morpheus 8 treatment appear over several weeks. As the body produces more collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, the skin gradually regains its elasticity. As a result, wrinkles disappear and skin volumes firm up.

On average, 4 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, are needed to achieve full results. Results last for several years.

The total cost of the treatment depends on the area to be treated and the number of sessions required to guarantee the desired result. A personalized estimate will be given to you at the end of the first consultation.
