What is radiofrequency and how does it work?
Radiofrequency energy delivered in this manner can result in minimal bleeding or bruising and the pain is far less than peels or laser treatments.

What is the recovery period for each Morpheus 8 treatment?

After the procedure We use a cool wrap and then apply Aquaphor that will assist in the healing time. Your face will be red and puffy for 2-3 days. Post procedure instructions will involve avoiding the sun, applying sunscreen, and the use of Aquaphor which will help assist in the healing process. You may apply a cool wash cloth to the face to decrease swelling.
Static vs. Dynamic Wrinkles
There are two categories of wrinkles to consider when seeking facial rejuvenation: static and dynamic. Static wrinkles are visible when your face is totally at rest. Due to the loss of elasticity and collagen in facial tissue over time, these wrinkles occur naturally during the aging process. Dynamic wrinkles, by contrast, appear when a muscle flexes during any sort of facial expression, whether happy or sad (think “frown” or “smile” lines), and are usually found around the eyes and between them, or on your forehead. Our treatment options can help to reduce both types of wrinkles.
