A notable new microneedling technique is Morpheus8, which combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy delivery.
This innovative approach amplifies the benefits of standard microneedling by not only creating micro-punctures in the skin, but also delivering RF energy deep into the dermis. Here's a breakdown:
- Traditional Microneedling: Creates tiny punctures to stimulate the body's natural collagen and elastin production.
- Morpheus8's Advancement: Adds RF energy, which heats the underlying layers of the skin. This controlled heat amplifies the body's healing response, leading to more significant skin tightening and rejuvenation.
The RF energy component allows for:
- Deeper penetration: RF energy reaches deeper layers of the skin compared to traditional microneedling alone.
- Enhanced collagen production: The heat stimulates more collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer and smoother skin.
- Fat remodeling: In some cases, Morpheus8 can also help to remodel fat beneath the skin, contributing to a more contoured appearance.
Therefore, Morpheus8 represents an evolution of microneedling by incorporating RF technology to enhance its rejuvenating effects.
