What Can You Expect from a Morpheus8 Treatment?

Your journey with Morpheus8 at Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics begins with a personalized consultation. Dr. Ria Shirsolkar, MD, MS, will assess your skin’s unique needs and discuss your desired outcomes to create a tailored treatment plan just for you. We prioritize your comfort, starting each session with the application of a topical anesthetic to ensure a pain-free experience.

Our sessions typically last between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment area. With minimal downtime, you can expect some redness and swelling, which usually subside within a few days, allowing you to quickly return to your daily activities. Unlike more invasive procedures, Morpheus8 offers a swift recovery, making it an ideal choice for those seeking effective skin rejuvenation without the lengthy healing period.

Results vary, but many patients notice improvements in skin texture and tone over several weeks as collagen continues to regenerate. To achieve the best results, multiple sessions may be recommended.

Preparing for a Morpheus8 session involves a few key steps to ensure the procedure is both safe and effective, tailored specifically to your needs. Here’s how to get ready for your session with us:
 
Consultation and Customization:
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics. Our experienced healthcare providers will discuss your medical history, skin concerns, and aesthetic goals. This personalized approach allows us to determine if Morpheus8 is the right treatment for you and customize the procedure to achieve your desired results.

Skincare Precautions:
In the weeks leading up to your session, we advise avoiding direct sun exposure and tanning, as these can increase the risk of complications and impact your results. Use a high SPF broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to protect your skin. Additionally, refrain from using retinoids, exfoliants, or harsh skincare products for at least a week before your appointment to prevent skin irritation.

Day of the Treatment:
Arrive with clean skin, free from makeup, lotions, or creams. This ensures the treatment can penetrate the skin effectively and reduces the risk of infection. Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water is also beneficial, as it supports the healing process and enhances the treatment outcome.

Comfort and Care:
Wear comfortable clothing, as some areas of your skin may feel sensitive after the procedure. If you have a history of cold sores, inform our team so we can discuss the possibility of prescribing antiviral medication to prevent flare-ups.

What to Expect:
Understanding the procedure can help ease any anxiety. During and after your Morpheus8 session, some redness, swelling, or mild discomfort may occur, but these are normal and temporary. Our team at Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.

By following these guidelines and any additional advice from our expert providers, you can look forward to a successful and satisfying Morpheus8 experience at Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics.

Morpheus8 works by stimulating collagen production through the application of radiofrequency energy. This collagen remodeling process is ongoing, which means you will likely observe more pronounced improvements in skin firmness, elasticity, and overall appearance over the course of three to six months. This gradual enhancement aligns with the natural healing and regenerative processes within your skin.

At Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics, we recognize that the extent of your results can vary based on individual factors such as your skin type, the severity of the skin issues being addressed, and the personalized treatment plan we recommend for you. Some patients may need a series of sessions to achieve their desired outcomes. Therefore, it is crucial to adhere to the post-treatment care instructions provided by our skilled healthcare professionals and attend any follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.

By choosing Morpheus8 at Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics, you are investing in a treatment that offers both immediate and long-lasting improvements. While you might see some initial results relatively quickly, the most substantial and enduring benefits will unfold over several months, helping you achieve the radiant and youthful skin you desire.

Our experienced professionals ensure a comfortable experience throughout your Morpheus8 treatment. We begin by applying a topical anesthetic to the targeted area, minimizing any discomfort. As the Morpheus8 device works its magic, you’ll likely feel a mild pressure or a sensation akin to tiny pinpricks as the microneedles gently penetrate your skin. The radiofrequency energy may introduce a warmth or mild heat sensation, as it penetrates deeper layers to stimulate collagen production effectively.

At Stone Ridge Wellness and Aesthetics, we prioritize your comfort and satisfaction. Our team is dedicated to making the procedure as pleasant as possible, with the numbing cream significantly reducing any discomfort. While sensitivity may vary across different areas of the face or body, most patients find the experience tolerable and rewarding.
