What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 is a skin remodelling treatment that tightens and smooths the skin using radiofrequency microneedling. The procedure works on both the face and body, helping to rejuvenate the appearance of the skin’s tone and texture and rebuild its internal structure.

The procedure uses fractional resurfacing to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Fine needles create tiny channels in the skin, prompting your body to make new collagen. Those needles deliver radiofrequency heat into the deeper layers, which tightens the tissue that’s already there and encourages more collagen to form.

Because the energy reaches further down than standard microneedling, you tend to see more noticeable firming.

Results build gradually as new collagen forms, so your skin keeps improving over the weeks after each session rather than overnight.

What can Morpheus8 help with?

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Loss of firmness around the jaw, jowls and neck
  • Uneven skin tone and texture
  • Acne scarring and other scarring
  • Stretch marks

It can be used on the face, neck, jawline, abdomen, arms, legs and other areas.

Consultation

What to Expect During Your Appointment

  • Your Morpheus8 appointment starts with a short consultation so your practitioner can check your medical history and the treatment area first.
  • A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure, so it shouldn’t be painful.
  • Your practitioner will then pass the Morpheus8 device over the area evenly until treatment is complete.

Afterwards, expect a day or two of redness and mild swelling, a bit like mild sunburn. Most people carry on as normal, with no need to book time off work.

Results build gradually as new collagen forms, with most people seeing their full results within three months.

Morpheus
Benefit one

Firms and smooths without surgery

Morpheus8 lifts and tightens skin without the need for a hospital stay, perfect for those who desire a firmer look but aren't ready for surgery.

Benefit two

Natural-looking results

As the treatment works by stimulating your own collagen, you begin to see visual changes over the weeks instead of instantly. So, you get to look like a fresher you without looking like you've had obvious work done.

Benefit three

Suitable for all skin tones

Because Morpheus8 doesn't rely on light-based technology to target pigment, it carries a lower risk of pigmentation change than some laser treatments. So, it suits a wider range of skin tones.

Benefit four

Minimal recovery time

Most people have a day or two of redness and mild swelling similar to mild sunburn, then can carry on as normal. There's no need to book time off work.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Where can I have a Morpheus8 treatment?

    Whilst you can have Morpheus8 treatment on any area of your face or body, the most popular treatment areas are the face, neck, arms and stomach.

    When used on the face, Morpheus8 works similarly to a facelift, reducing the appearance of sagging skin around your neck, chin and jowls.

    On the arms, it targets the appearance of ‘bingo wings,’ sagging skin at the back of the arms that is most noticeable when the arms are raised.

    Many clients also choose to have treatment on their stomachs, as it targets and tones loose, ageing skin in this area.

    If you’re unsure whether the Morpheus8 procedure would work for your skin issues, don’t hesitate to get in touch with our knowledgeable team.

    If you’re curious what Morpheus8 before-and-after results tend to look like for your treatment area, our team can talk you through real examples at your consultation.

    Is Morpheus8 treatment painful?

    As a topical numbing cream is applied before the Morpheus8 treatment, it should not be particularly painful. However, some clients report a pricking or warm sensation during the procedure.

    When you get in touch with our team to discuss the Morpheus8 procedure, we will book you in for a consultation. Here, we’ll talk you through what to expect during the treatment and address any concerns you may have.

    Is Morpheus8 suitable for me?

    Morpheus8 suits most adults who want to firm, smooth or refine the skin on their face or body. However, it may not be right if you:

    • Are pregnant or breastfeeding
    • Have an active skin infection or breakout in the area
    • Have a pacemaker
    • Have recently had strong sun exposure or used a sunbed

    The only way to know for certain is a face-to-face assessment for Morpheus8. Essex clients can contact our friendly team, and we’ll talk it through with you.

    How much does Morpheus8 cost?

    Cost depends on the size of the area and how many sessions you need. Most people need a short course rather than a one-off to see the full benefit. See our price list for more details.

    How many Morpheus8 treatments do I need?

    This depends on the results you want to achieve. For mild concerns such as fine lines, you’ll likely need 1-2 sessions. But for moderate ageing or deep wrinkles, you could need 3-6 sessions. Your clinician will discuss this with you when you visit one of our Essex clinics.

    Is there any aftercare needed?

    For the first few days after treatment, stick to a gentle skincare routine: cleanse and moisturise with gentle, fragrance-free products, and avoid direct sun exposure, vitamin C serums or other active skincare until your skin has settled.

    Sun protection matters more than usual while your skin renews itself.
