Before and aftercare

​

​

 

Before scheduling for Morpheus8, you must avoid using retinol for a week before the treatment to prevent skin irritation. Unlike regular micro needling, with Morpheus8 it is ok to have active and cystic acne as this treatment can help treat acne and acne scars. For men, it is recommended to shave two days before so the device can have as much skin contact throughout the treatment for better results. To help prevent bruising as much as possible, it is recommended to avoid blood thinners such as Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Fish oils, Vitamin E, and other over-the-counter blood thinners for a week and no alcohol for 24 hours before the treatment.

After your Morpheus8 treatment, it is common to see redness of your skin for up to a week. The best way to describe how your skin appears is like a “light sunburn”. Because Morpheus8 uses a 24-needle hand held device, bruising is always a possibility. Avoiding skin direct sun exposure, exfoliation, waxing, and the use of retinol for a week after treatment is recommended to help prevent skin irritation. When you are done with your treatment, you will be given a FREE Post-Procedure Solution Kit to be used for at least one-week post-treatment for optimal healing time.
