As you age, your skin develops fine lines, wrinkles, hollows, and sags, which may make you look older than you feel. Fortunately, several different treatments can address these problems.
Primary Care Walk-In Medical Clinic has locations in Gilbert, Fountain Hills, Mesa, and Scottsdale, Arizona. Dr. Pankaj Chopra, Dr. Neha Maheshwari, and our team understand how upsetting the signs of aging can be. One of the best treatments we can recommend for de-aging and toning your skin is the Morpheus 8 platform. Here’s why.
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses tiny sterilized needles to puncture the skin. Your skin relies on two proteins, collagen and elastin, to provide support and suppleness. As you get older, however, your body decreases production of both, resulting in lines and sagging skin all over your body.
The minor wounds caused by microneedling tell your body to make more collagen and elastin to heal the damage, which tones your skin, making you look younger.
Microneedling can help with problems that include:
Microneedling is far less expensive than most laser treatments, and it may work better for people with dark skin tones because it doesn’t cause hyperpigmentation like heat-related treatments.
Morpheus8 is microneedling on “steroids.” It’s a fractional radiofrequency (RF) technology intended for use on the skin, and the aim is to shrink and tone soft tissue. It works on:
Instead of just using needles to puncture the skin, as it punctures, it releases RF energy (as heat) into the channels created, reaching the deeper levels of the skin where remodeling takes place.
The Burst feature also confers the unique ability to deploy bipolar RF energy to multiple depths within the soft tissue in a single pulse, causing the contraction and toning of both adipose (fat) and dermal (skin) tissue.
Primary Care Walk-in Medical Clinic offers several different Morpheus options, including:
Morpheus 8 treats the skin, primarily in the face and neck areas. It can tighten and firm skin, restore lost volume, and create a more youthful appearance.
Morpheus V treats the delicate vaginal and vulvar areas, addressing problems like vaginal laxity, dryness, painful sex, a lack of sensation, and stress incontinence in women.
Morpheus Body addresses fat deposits throughout the body, precisely contouring areas like the abdomen, back, and thighs.
The number of treatments necessary varies from one person to another. However, we generally recommend three treatments to stimulate collagen and elastin production, and you should see a significant improvement within a few months.
