Morpheus8 is an advanced form of the standard microneedling treatment, which involves making micro-injuries on the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen production. The standard microneedling treatment is brilliant because it activates your body’s natural collagen production capabilities, helping you achieve smoother, firmer skin. However, radiofrequency (RF) microneedling performed using the cutting-edge Morpheus8 device further boosts your body’s collagen production capabilities, ensuring even better results. We offer Morpheus8 in Buffalo to ensure our clients get the latest and most effective skin technology.

How it Works
Collagen is a fibrous protein that holds your skin upright against the force of gravity, making your skin look firm and taut. The loss of collagen is responsible for facial sagging and wrinkles. Microneedling restores your skin’s collagen reserves, thus reversing the signs of aging — that’s why it’s also called collagen induction therapy. When the microneedles puncture your skin’s surface, the body responds to the “micro-injuries” by stimulating collagen production, leading to smoother, softer, firmer, and more youthful skin.
Radiofrequency energy boosts the results of traditional microneedling, and the cutting-edge Morpheus8 device allows us to penetrate up to 4 millimeters of the skin’s surface to trigger natural healing. When the Morpheus8 microneedles puncture the skin’s surface, they also deliver radiofrequency waves deep within the dermal layers, triggering natural regeneration at a deeper level. Morpheus8 boosts the results of standard microneedling, helping you achieve smoother skin faster. Schedule your Morpheus8 in Buffalo today.
Morpheus8 + PRP
Morpheus8 can also be combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy. The cosmetic provider draws a small sample of your blood, places it in a centrifuge to isolate the PRPs, and applies the golden-colored serum to your face after microneedling. Platelet-rich plasmas contain a high concentration of growth factors, the components responsible for most of your body’s healing activities. When applied to the face after microneedling, PRPs and growth factors stimulate deep cellular regeneration and collagen production, leading to improved results.

Your Morpheus8 Journey
Consultation
Your journey with Morpheus8 in Buffalo starts with a personalized consultation with our cosmetic providers. They examine your facial skin to note your unique cosmetic problems and concerns, following which they discuss your goals and review your health history. Our cosmetic providers also discuss all of your microneedling options, including RF microneedling and the PRP add-on, and their unique advantages. The microneedling treatment plan is curated according to your unique goals and expectations.
Procedure
The cosmetic provider applies a numbing gel on your skin to ensure comfort. The Morpheus8 device is modified according to your unique skin quality, ensuring the microneedle depths are just right. The cosmetic provider makes micro-punctures on your skin’s surface using the Morpheus8 device to stimulate collagen production. You might feel a pinch when the device enters your skin, but it’s completely tolerable. If you opt for a PRP add-on, the PRP serum will be applied to your face after microneedling.
Recovery
Morpheus8 doesn’t involve any downtime. Your skin will look red and sore, and you may experience mild swelling and discomfort for a day, but you can resume most of your daily activities immediately. You should, however, avoid direct sunlight and strenuous physical activities for a day or two. If you must go outside, please wear a broad-brimmed hat and plenty of sunscreen to protect yourself.
Results
Morpheus8 doesn’t produce instant results because it relies on your body’s ability to heal itself. The results will gradually appear over several weeks and months as your body produces new collagen fibers — your skin will gradually appear smoother and tighter. Most patients need 3 to 6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results — your cosmetic provider will curate the ideal treatment frequency for you.
