Morpheus8 -
Treat Active & Cystic Acne

Having acne is a struggle most people will face at some point in their life. While it’s not exactly hazardous to your physical health, active acne, as well as acne scars, will often take a toll on people’s confidence and self-image. With this being such a common problem, doctors and dermatologists have been developing anti-acne treatments for years with some faring better than others, like Morpheus8.


Morpheus8 As A Treatment For Active Acne
 
Acne can be caused by multiple things like dirt, dead skin, oil, and bacteria and if left untreated could become a chronic skin condition. To address these causes, radiofrequency is used by the Morpheus8 treatment to not only kill any bacteria on your skin surface but it will also reduce the size of your oil glands resulting in less oil production
​
How Does Morpheus8 work to KILL Acne?
 

Although Morpheus8 is known to be a skin tightening and resurfacing treatmentMorpheus 8 is able to also stop acne bacteria in its tracks. It not only destroys the bacteria that causes acne while ablating the skin tissue, but it also shrinks and eventually shuts down the oil glands that are found just below the surface of the skin making it so that the entire process that causes acne in the first place is halted before it even starts. No production of oily stuff for acne bacteria to feed off of equals no inflammation and no pimples.

Reduce your Acne Breakouts

While there’s a multitude of benefits from having a morpheus8 treatment done, the number one benefit for those prone to acne is that this treatment will reduce the chances of your skin developing more acne and experiencing long breakouts. 

​

As mentioned, Morpheus8 used radiofrequency energy to kill the acne-causing bacteria on your skin and reduce the size of your oil glands as well. With some of the main reasons for acne to occur being addressed, Morpheus8 is likely to leave you with an improved skin complexion free from breakouts once the treatment takes full effect. 

Longevity of Results

Once you’ve completed the recommended amount of Morpheus8 treatments, the results on your active acne and overall skin should last around 1 to 3 years. 

The treatment lasts this long because the radiofrequency waves deeply penetrate your skin, making Morpheus8 far more effective than any surface-level treatment. 

While it’ll slowly fade throughout the years, you can maintain the results by having additional treatments every 6 to 12 months. If you’re not too concerned by the results slightly fading then you can wait a full 3 years before having another Morpheus8 treatment. 

Can acne scars be removed with Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 not only eliminates acne, but can also undo the scars caused by this condition.. Morpheus8 is super effective for acne scars and all types of scars for that matter.

​

Because Morpheus8 is actually a microneedling treatment it makes tiny abrasions in the skin in order to stimulate a wound healing response that causes the body to produce collagen and elastin, and to generate new healthy skin cells. The treatment significantly heals and reduces the appearance of scars and other textural irregularities, especially after a course of treatments.
