What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure that pairs microneedling with radiofrequency energy. A series of tiny needles delivers RF heat deep into the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries that trigger your body’s natural healing response. As collagen and elastin rebuild, skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more refined.
This treatment, sometimes called RF microneedling, offers customizable depth settings to target specific concerns and deliver personalized results.
Who Is a Candidate for Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is ideal for patients seeking visible skin improvement without surgery. You may want to consider this procedure if you’re looking to smooth texture, tighten skin, or refine pores and your schedule can accommodate a few days of social downtime.
The treatment works well across a range of skin tones. Dr. Stanton customizes settings to minimize risks like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and maximize results based on your skin type and goals.

How Is Morpheus8 Different From Traditional Microneedling?
Traditional microneedling treats the skin’s surface to stimulate renewal. Morpheus8 goes deeper by using RF energy to remodel collagen at adjustable depths. It allows for more dramatic tightening, especially along your jawline, neck, and lower face, while maintaining a smooth complexion.
Morpheus8 is effective for various skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Loose or sagging skin
- Rough or uneven texture
- Acne scars
- Stretch marks
While you can get Morpheus8 anywhere on your body, most patients choose to treat their faces and necks. For best results, we typically recommend a series of three treatments spaced four to six weeks apart.
Combining Morpheus8 With Other Treatments
For comprehensive rejuvenation, Morpheus8 pairs well with:
- Facial fillers to restore volume and contour
- Botox to smooth dynamic wrinkles like crow’s feet and forehead furrows
- Non-surgical skin and tissue remodeling with Evolve and Evoke
Dr. Stanton can design a personalized plan that sequences these treatments for optimal results and minimal downtime.
What Happens During a Morpheus8 Treatment?
Depending on the target area, sessions last 15 to 60 minutes. Morpheus8 stands out for its ability to adjust RF heat depth, allowing precise targeting of different skin layers.
Most patients feel mild pressure or warmth during the procedure, but topical numbing makes it comfortable. If you’re seeking a microneedling facial with added tightening, Morpheus8 offers efficient treatment across multiple zones in a single visit.

If you have stretch marks, Morpheus8 can help you reduce their appearance. It is a fully customized treatment that can be effective across your body. However, you may also benefit from other options for minimizing your stretch marks. By discussing your concerns with Dr. Stanton, you can get personalized treatment tailor-made to your requirements.
Morpheus8 uses microneedling to induce tiny injuries across your skin. These encourage your skin’s natural healing processes and stimulate collagen and elastin, two structural proteins that help reduce wrinkles and sagging skin. But unlike conventional microneedling, Morpheus8 also applies RF energy that further boosts collagen and elastin. This innovation provides you with better and faster results than getting microneedling alone.
The RF energy in Morpheus8 induces heat during the treatment. If this is a concern for you, rest assured that the device is fully adjustable. To help you avoid excessive discomfort, we also use numbing agents on your skin before starting each session.
Morpheus8 creates tiny injuries, while the RF energy generates heat across your skin. However, we will numb your skin beforehand, so you will feel safe and comfortable throughout your appointment. You may feel slight pain a few hours after your treatment. By following aftercare instructions from Dr. Stanton and his team, you can easily alleviate this.
Morpheus8 can make your skin more sensitive to UV damage such as hyperpigmentation. We recommend avoiding direct sunlight for at least 24 hours after each session. Afterward, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 before going outside, reapplying it every two hours.
