In this blog post from Dalili Medical, we'll dive into everything you need to know about Morpheus 8 and why it might be the perfect solution to your skin care needs.

**What is Morpheus 8?**

 

Morpheus 8 is a device that combines micro-needling and radiofrequency technologies to stimulate natural collagen production in the skin. This device is characterized by its ability to poke at a depth of up to 4-7 mm, which allows it to work on deeper layers of the skin compared to other devices.

**How ​​does Morpheus 8 work?**

 

A local anesthetic cream is applied to the targeted area, then the doctor moves the portable device over that area, allowing the fine needles to penetrate the skin. Next, the needles emit radio frequency waves that penetrate the skin, generating heat that stimulates the regeneration of connective tissue and collagen, resulting in skin tightening.

**When do Morpheus results appear?**

 

The duration of Morpheus results varies depending on several factors, such as treatment intensity, skin condition, and number of sessions. In general, an improvement in the skin can be seen within a few days after treatment, as it becomes smoother and pores are reduced. As for the more visible results, they may take about 3 weeks to appear, as the skin recovers and begins to produce collagen and elastin, which makes the skin firmer and more youthful, sagging decreases, and scars and pigmentation disappear.

Morpheus sessions cause some pain or discomfort, which may be more severe compared to Scarlett sessions. They also require a longer time to heal and produce results due to more swelling and redness. While the effect of the Scarlett device is limited to redness and mild tingling, which makes the use of local anesthetic creams before Morpheus sessions popular.
