Does Morpheus8 Work For Acne Scars?

Morpheus8 is a skin treatment that uses a state-of-the-art fractional RF device that combines deep microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. The treatment can target specific areas using tiny needles to penetrate the skin, causing micro-injuries, while simultaneously adding radiofrequency heat to tighten it and rebuild the layers underneath.

The RF heat triggers your body to make more collagen, which is what keeps your skin firm and smooth. This process is called remodeling because as new collagen is formed, it gradually helps smooth out uneven texture, fills in scars, and makes your skin look fresher, toned, and more even. It is most often used on the face but can also be used to treat many other areas of the body. The depth of the needles and the strength of the RF can be adjusted based on your skin concern and the area being treated.

Yes, Morpheus8 can be helpful if you are experiencing active breakouts because the radiofrequency energy can target the sebaceous glands, which are the ones that make oil. It calms these glands down, which helps control inflammation and reduces the frequency of acne flare-ups. Unfortunately, It cannot completely cure acne, but if the breakouts are mild to moderate, it can significantly help improve the appearance of your skin.

How Morpheus8 Treats Acne Scars

Morpheus8 helps improve the appearance of acne scars in a few different ways, including:

• The microneedles create tiny injuries in your skin, which trigger your body to start repairing itself through dermal remodeling.
• The heat from the radiofrequency radiates deep down into the layers of your skin to jumpstart the production of collagen and elastin.
• As the new collagen forms, it begins to repair the damage and rebuild the skin, which helps firm it up and even out the texture. The raised areas of the scars become flatter, and the pitted or indented scars start to fill in, so your skin looks clearer and has a more even tone and feels smoother.

It usually takes a series of Morpheus8 treatments to fade significant residual scarring from acne, but the treatments can provide dramatic results.

After a Morpheus8 session, most individuals experience some redness, similar to what a mild sunburn looks like, and some mild swelling. This is normal and usually only lasts for one to three days, but should not prevent you from going about your normal routine. Some people also experience tiny scabs or flaky skin, which is nothing to be concerned about and can be part of the healing process. Make sure you follow the aftercare instructions provided to you by your Beauté Aesthetics specialist to ensure your healing process goes smoothly.

• Keep your skin moisturized using Aquaphor or something similar.
• Stay hydrated.
• Use gentle skincare.
• Avoid sun exposure.
• Avoid using makeup for about 48 hours.
• Avoid saunas or hot showers until your skin has healed.
• Avoid activities that cause excessive sweating for 72 hours.

Morpheus8 can deliver significant results when used to reduce acne scars and will give you a clearer, smoother, and more even complexion. Most people report that after undergoing just one Morpheus8 treatment, their skin texture has improved, feels softer, and their acne scars look lighter.

Multiple sessions can help fade deeper scarring and skin imperfections and are best done a few months apart. Some of the before and after Morpheus8 improvements can be seen immediately with brighter skin and a glowing complexion, but it can take a few months for the full results to manifest because forming new collagen takes time.

Does Morpheus8 remove acne scars?

Morpheus8 is not always able to eliminate acne scars completely, but it can significantly improve their appearance. It depends on the severity of the scarring, your specific skin type, and your cosmetic concerns. Morpheus8 works on reducing the appearance of visible scarring by rebuilding the skin from the inside out. After several sessions, most people see substantially smoother skin and less visible scarring.

How many Morpheus8 treatments are needed for acne scars?

The number of treatments you will need will depend on how extensive or deep your scars are. Most people need between three and six treatments that are spaced about four to six weeks apart to get the best results.

Can I do Morpheus if I have acne?

Yes, Morpheus8 may help reduce breakouts by calming down the glands in your skin that produce oil, but if you have very severe or cystic acne, you may need to first see your dermatologist for treatment before starting Morpheus8.
