Fractional Skin Treatment
MORPHEUS8
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a minimally-invasive fractional skin treatment that stimulates collagen production of the underlying layers of the dermis. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, tissues of the face and body can be remodeled to reveal a more refreshed appearance.
Morpheus8 is not just for the face. We can treat anywhere on the body where skin laxity is a concern. It is a wonderful solution for skin rejuvenation, as it can achieve multiple corrective actions simultaneously. Here are some of the concerns we can address with this advanced technology:
- Uneven or rough skin texture
- Excess fat in the face and neck
- Sagging in the jowls, lower face and neck
- Acne scarring and other scarring on the face and body
- Deep lines and creases
- Sun damage
- Enlarged pores
- Stretchmarks
- Enhance glowing complexion
