Morpheus8
We’re excited to be the first clinic in Dorset to offer this new treatment to their patients. Offering fractional remodelling for skin tightening, contouring, and resurfacing for the face and body. Established as a go-to for celebrities, this three-course treatment simulates the production of collagen in the underlying layers of the dermis to improve skin appearance and reduce irregularities.
Morpheus8 is an excellent choice for patients with skin laxity and/or overlying skin surface problems such as scarring and can be used with complementary therapies for even better results. This exciting new treatment stimulates collagen production in the underlying layers of the dermis. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, tissues of the face and body can be remodelled to reveal a more radiant youthful appearance.
It’s important for us and you to see the improvements during your Morpheus8 journey, so at the start we will carry out a detailed Visia skin analysis and end of your course to see the improvements that have been made under the skin, as well as giving you all your after care, including ZO Growth Factor Serum and Hydrating Cleanser to maximise the results and improve recovery time.
How does it work?
The Morpheus8, manufactured by INMODE, was the first device to come to market combining micro-needling with fractional radiofrequency.
By using a ‘micro-needling’ delivery method, the skin is penetrated with 24 coated pins delivering radiofrequency deep into the dermis and subdermal tissue. The micro lesions trigger the body’s natural healing response to produce new collagen, moulding the fat beneath the skin to tighten and contract the fat and connective tissue.
After treatment there’s a 48 hour to 1 week downtime, depending on treatment parameters, patient skin type & treatment response and side effects.
Some redness, bruising, and swelling are to be expected after the treatment, and direct sunlight should be avoided for the first two weeks after the procedure. Having a skincare routine using high-quality products can also help you recover.
What areas can be treated?
Morpheus8 can be used on any area that can benefit from resurfacing and/or subdermal renewal. The most commonly treated areas include the face/neck, periorbital area, abdomen, thighs, legs, and buttocks.
To maximise the results of your treatment, we automatically provide you with the skincare products you need. These will be provided at your first appointment.

Is Morpheus8 right for me?

Can this be used in combination with other treatment?

After treatment there’s a 48 hour to 1 week downtime, depending on treatment parameters, patient skin type & treatment response and side effects.

Since patient downtime is minimal, makeup can be applied 48 hours after the treatment. Patients should expect to see micro lesions a few days after treatment and slight redness for up to 1 week depending on treatment parameters.
What kind of procedure care is required following Morpheus8?
Patients should moisturise the treatment area and avoid direct sun exposure. It is also recommended that patients use a good, broad spectrum sunscreen every day.
