Morpheus8

Fine lines, wrinkles, stretch marks, and acne scars are natural parts of life, but at North Texas Cosmetic Surgery, you don’t have to simply accept them as permanent features. Board-certified cosmetic surgeon Alan Greenberg, MD, proudly offers patients Morpheus8 treatments to improve the appearance and quality of aging skin without the downtime of invasive surgery. Call the office in Frisco, TX today or schedule an appointment online to learn more about the many benefits of Morpheus8.

What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy targeted below the epidermis (the skin’s outermost layer) to generate collagen. Collagen is a protein that keeps your skin firm and tight by giving it structure. By supporting your skin, collagen allows you to maintain a youthful appearance.

Collagen levels decline as you age, causing your skin to sag and lose support. Morpheus8 remodels the skin and underlying tissue to rebuild collagen and restore your skin’s resilience.

Dr. Greenberg uses Morpheus8 to help achieve many aesthetic benefits. Compared to more invasive procedures, Morpheus8:

• Reduces treatment times
• Minimizes skin injury
• Increases treatment uniformity
• Works for most skin tones

After carefully assessing your skin’s quality, appearance, and structure, Dr. Greenberg can determine whether Morpheus8 is right for you.

How does Morpheus8 work?

Morpheus8 includes a range of specialized modules tailored for different body areas. This award-winning device features unique gold-tipped micro-needles infused with burst-mode RF technology, enabling them to target three distinct levels of the skin with enhanced precision in millisecond intervals. 

This cutting-edge approach generates controlled heat, effectively stimulating the skin and underlying subcutaneous fat to produce new collagen and elastin.

Unlike traditional microneedling, which employs lower-grade needles that can inadvertently harm the skin, Morpheus8's state-of-the-art technology ensures a more precise, controlled, and effective approach to skin revitalization.

Is Morpheus8 only for the face?

Morpheus8 can remodel and tighten skin nearly anywhere on the body, including the following areas:

• Forehead
• Periorbital areas around the eyes
• Acne scars
• Marionette lines
• Cheeks
• Neck
• Upper arms
• Abdomen and stretch marks
• Thighs and upper knees
• Buttocks

Dr. Greenberg can combine this treatment with many other procedures, such as liposuction, Renuvion®, and dermal fillers.

I’m getting Morpheus8 treatment. What can I expect?

Before beginning your treatment, Dr. Greenberg and his team apply a medical-grade numbing cream to your skin. If you’re targeting multiple areas, he may recommend tumescent anesthesia, which allows you to remain awake during the procedure. 

Most people notice initial improvements within three to four weeks. Temporary side effects may include slight redness and rough skin, but these are usually manageable with makeup after a couple of days.
